Get off the track!

Background - Guy at an AER event at Road Atlanta in February of 18 ignores a full course caution for two laps and is surprised when people are upset about it. He posted a video defending himself a year later.

His video and AER's response can be seen Here

He should be banned from racing for about 10 years.

How 'bout hours and hours of classroom time to learn what those "pretty flags" represent?

Then ban him for 10 years. He just might have an understanding of WHY he was banned then.

His attitude in his stupid video made me want to donkey punch him in the face. I don't have a use for people like him.

He probably spent the last year convincing himself he was not a complete and total asshole for the way he put other folks in danger with ignoring the yellow flags over two dozen times.

he'd probably wonder why you clocked him too

What a pompous ass.

What part about full course yellow = no passing (Beginner Track Flag Class 101) does he not understand?

If you see a black flag waved at you...then pointed at you...it is FOR YOU. Pit in and take your talking-to like an adult...and reply with 'yes sir, no sir, I'm sorry sir, that won't happen again sir'.

The ones with this kind of attitude are usually the ones who wreck at track days. Steer clear of them.

this type of person... if you look up the word "introspection" in the dictionary - they won't have his picture there.
