The point is it's faster to leave the engine running. The fact that these teams decided it was safer to NOT use everything in the rule book and LOSE time is a big deal. In a class as competitive as GTLM you fight and claw for tenths of a second on the track and in the pit stops.

I applaud the effort AND the fact that none of the teams made a big deal about it to try and throw IMSA under the bus.
