I have a question concerning my penalty for the NBS race.
Now Cam and I entered the pits almost side by side, looking at my leaderboard in race he was flashing telling me he was very very close. I stayed to the left to give him room and avoid damage to both our cars. My question is, was I supposed to cut in front of him to comply with the pitting rules and risk damaging both of us or stay to the left and do the safe thing?

you should have changed lanes suddenly randomly and unpredictably,

That's a judgement call on your part, whether it's better to take the penalty or give up track position. :badgrin:

Re: I have a question
You actually had plenty of room to move into the outside lane. Both of you entered pit road slightly side-by-side, but you entered ahead of camry and your momentum cleared his car substantially. Watch both of your cars just a little after the entrance...you're occupying a pretty far-left lane for no real reason.
