I remember a few years ago at Texas when there was a big wreck racing back to the yellow. A crash had happened at the start finish line, and the leaders were racing back to the yellow to keep guys a lap down. To keep a long story short Jeff Gordon, Ernie Irvan and three or four other contenders were taken out when they plowed into a wrecked car. Also last week at New Hampshire Casey Mears just about wrecked himself and Michael Waltrip when Jarrett's car was sitting there. I think this rules change is a good one, now they just need to work on pit road a little more to make it safer for the guys going over the wall.
