VikingSkull posted:It's literally the only defense of open cockpit race cars nowadays With Dallara already developing something, what the gently caress more do you want? Do you want them to rush a solution that hasn't been properly developed and tested, potentially introducing drivers to even more risk of injury? Again, you don't actually give a poo poo. You just jump on every opportunity to poo poo on this series that you don't care about. Go away.

they have used high deflector style windscreens in open wheel previously and could have done at least that, unlike the spectacular "do nothing, maybe make a computer drawing" plan they have now

Rahal just tweeted that they aren't racing today e: going to be a formal announcement at 5 CT; which I think is 11pm UK time IceAgeComing fucked around with this message at 22:49 on Jun 12, 2016 |

Race postponed until 27th August; according to random people on twitter. Apparently announced on track PA system A good decision IMO

The whole restarting on lap 72 thing I don't like; but other than that its really the only thing that they could have done - the weather for tomorrow seems dodgy and a bunch of guys really need to leave tomorrow evening for Le Mans. Its more sensible than perhaps running the thing on Tuesday morning which might have ended up being the most likely outcome.

I live north of Dallas and holy loving poo poo the storm that rolled through here produced a monsoon for like 2 hours. The fact that they didn't call it when they stopped it was extremely stupid.

I'm just annoyed they ran 30 laps under yellow for no drat reason when it should of come out right after newgardens wreck.

OK, so if the race restarts on Lap 72, after the Newgarden and Daly crash, do those two just not bother showing up for that weekend?

They should be allowed to repair their cars over the two-month red flag and then rejoin the race

This makes no sense to me. Just run the full race, starting positions will be the positions they left off at.

Just have them run two 200 mile twin races in one night IMO. They should always do that.

I'm pretty sure restarting where everyone was is actually the normal thing. The non-normal thing is delaying a race multiple months due to weather after it started. It's happened in the past, obviously, but its still not that common.

Restart the race at a random time on a random day of the week and all the drivers have to drop what they're doing and figure out how to get to the track

So if the race is 200 miles in length, and I drove 60 miles to get there, I have 140 miles left to run.
