Oh, my bad! I was referring to the 1st 600cc race.

As for protesting, it's useless... 'cause the rule IRRC is that you cannot move before lights go off. Whether you move and stop or not it doesn't make a difference. The reason I'm saying that, is because when I did the RYM a dude that was behind me on the start (no idea how far back) jumped the start by what it felt like more than 1 sec and instead of stopping he kept going... in the end, even with the penalty, he still finished ahead of me 'cause he pretty much got the hole shot and I made a horrible start (for a change).
