5. Cars will be gridded in single file order in the pit lane with the first starter at pit exit. Cars will start from the pit exit station (standing start) upon signal from the Chief Handicapper) As each car leaves the pits, subsequent cars must roll forward to the pit exit but may not proceed until signaled by the Chief Handicapper.
6. Any car entering the pit lane from the track is automatically a DNF and must stop at the head of the pit lane so as not to interfere with remaining cars.

It's confirmed that I need to be stuffing 225/45/15's under the car from now on. Felt great! I was going to use them Sunday except I flat spotted the right front during my close call with the AS car. 
Had another crappy start in the race when a late entry EP car made a banzai move inside and we went into T1 about 4 wide. I backed off - I missed the crash just past T1 the previous day, I planned to miss this one as well. No crash amazingly, but the repaired Saturn and a different Miata took off and hid, and the silver Miata winner from the previous day and I started up our battle again. He had got ahead of me on the start but was right in front of me. Got a great run thru the back section and powered by him on the front straight about lap 4. I then proceeded to have the widest Sentra ever built for the next 11 laps! He would catch me by T4 and try and take a run, I would power away down the back stretch, then he would catch me again at T12 - I could not get the car to turn in T12. The tires were completely slicked up by then and I nearly spun again at one point. He got a nose under and we went up to T15 side by side once, but I pulled back ahead on the front stretch again. From then on I went painfully slow thru T12, playing huggy-pole and protecting the inside line, he had to go around on the outside if he was going to get me and he never could. Best lap was in the mid 1:54, finished third, and nothing broke!!! 
Cool to see him back out there.
