Re: Coaches and the starting line

At Buckeye i didn't get flagged for walking over the line, infact i was very concerned about crossing that line, until i saw every other coach doing it. I was all over the team box too, and never got flagged, but i was very careful not to break the plane.

We did have a situation with a timer/buzzer sync issue. One time up, everyone crossed the line at 118 seconds, since we all saw it counting down, but no buzzer, one of the other alliance teams got flagged since the ref never heard the buzzer, the buzzer finally sounded almost 5 seconds later. Luckily the ref realized the mistake and it wasn't counted against us in the end.
