Good evening All
We had something happen at the first GoPro Motorplex Kart Challenge race on Saturday. That I wanted to see if anyone had seen this happen at other tracks. During the LO206 SR final race, the black flag was given to 4 drivers with 5 to 6 laps left in the race because they were back markers. ( through no fault of their own) Because it was felt they might be lapped by the lead karts and could ruin their racing. Am I wrong, if all racers had to pay the same entry fees, spent the same time and effort to attend. Shouldn’t all racers be allowed to race to the checkered flag. This is something new for this year, I wanted to see if others have seen this else where. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
