Track Etiquette

[Cannonball]

New thread this, but triggered by Slick's comments on people who oil the complete length of the track in the case of a blow up/leak down.

Is it better to:

1) Pull over and stop

2) Pull off to the side and complete the run to clear the lane

3) Gun it some more to the finish line



I have never been in this situation, but I guess it is a matter of time and I want to know what is "the right thing to do".

Thanks.

Pete
