marshalls
marshalling badly carries the same penalties as driving badly, pay attention, put the sandwich mobile etc down, stop trying to get your mate/dad etc's attention, or you will lose that good time you have set. that said i cannot give you back time a marshall has lost for you, shouting abuse at the throbber whilst understandable will get you a penalty and irritate the fellow racers on the rostrum.
mind you the keystone kops effect as three marshalls run to your car and all stop at once believing the other marshall is going to get and then all three restart only to stop again is hilarous.
also amusing is the ultra pose marshall who effortlessly glides to your stricken car and using the one handed flick to right your car, whilst again effortless carrying on to clear the track without looking back, he then waits for the adulation of the watching spectators, only to find the car is still on its roof!!, use two hands and make sure its the right way up
