If that had been a NASA-SE race at Road Atl., they would have called it a complete race

Been there, done that.

WTF?

They don't restart? 4 minutes in and they would call it done? I would hate that!!! ..considering the entry fees and time to get there, etc. I would be so upset to have a race over within 5 minutes.

We actually made 2 1/2 laps. Then they called it. Also gave credit to those who passed under the red. Yeah it sucked. It was also the last time I raced with them. Here's the video.

We had one get called after 3 laps in July. It was the last race of the day and the damage took too long to clean up. To make up for it, that run group got extra time in Aug.

wow... can't believe passing under red didn't mean automatic disqualify.. so much for rules
