RIP 66 Barracuda

Compare the previous car's walking speed past the red flags to exit (.042) and when the announcer states its the Barracuda driver's best time (indicating he had tripped the finish timer). That's what should have happened versus what did happen.

Even with the standard throttle return check done in SCCA tech, if the throttle was getting actuated by stepping on the brake pedal, that's a tough situation to respond to in lightning fast time. Would have to think Neutral and kill the engine and then do it in less than a second.

Not that it would have neccessarily saved anything in this situation, but
SCCA course layout rules are a lot stricter in terms of room to hard barriers. I've posted some of my SCCA autocross runs here if people want to go look. I'm not going to repost in this thread. I only mention it here to point out for those that are unsure about autocrossing after seeing this that Goodguys version is not the only version.
