G Well this has been interesting and I will report outcome when National responds to my appeal. I think SCCA, from the different posts on this thread, has some work to do to educate all on hand signals.Seems a clearer signal like: a downword pointing thumb out the window could mean " I am brokedown" and that raised, waiving hands mean"heads up problem ahead/ flags out" this would accomodate everyones concerns. But for now, the GCR is clear and I hope they side with the decision I made, especially since it had zero effect on the outcome of the race.
