Track malfunction or debris may warrant a track call (Marshalls discretion).
“Rider†will warrant a track call. (avoids car damage)
Car on the floor warrants a track call, to clean car and tires of floor debris and return of the car to the position where it left the track.
Track calls for all other “crashes†should not be necessary and the track button Marshall should resist the urge to initiate track call stoppage, for large pile ups, or inattentive marshals, or overwhelmed marshals.
Driver’s must drive working cars to the “Pit area†when a team want’s to remove a car from the track for repairs, maintenance or adjustments.
