Whoever the track manager is, who works at Milan....they were asleep at the wheel during this debacle. I kinda doubt any of the "officials" down there on the track surface
was "in charge" of the track and facilities. My track manager, was usually doing more important things, than working the burn-out box, or starting line. The "manager" should have recognized what was happening...taken control of the situation, starting with, telling everyone not with that car, to clear the whole area, then getting the driver out of the way, so the track crew could douse the flames ASAP...Control/put out the fire, then pull/push car off track...clean track surface..resume the day...PERIOD!
Then afterwards, if the driver wanted to argue about it all, and be combative and a DB.. simply say he's not invited back..I saw it, and lived it more than a few times, when I worked at a dragstrip.
