There's two sides to your answer Newshound,

The first is that it is correct, if one wants to make a protest, then one has to put the money down.

The second is that putting the money down doesn't necessarily mean a satisfactory result. At one meeting I was willing to put down money, but the CoC advised me not to. As he put it, "You know it was a lunge, I know it was a lunge, he knows it was a lunge but unless you can get some reliable witnesses all I can tell you is that the incident hasn't been reported to me by the observers on track"

As such, putting money down would have been a waste. Mind you, being a good CoC, he did ask for that driver to be watched as mine wasn't the first grumble that he had heard and that driver subsequently got a warning flag for a blatant bump (on someone else) into a corner and the black flag when he did it again in another heat.

And to my mind that is good clerking, though it could be open to abuse, but one has to rely on the clerk for manage that.

As it is, I do appreciate certain tracks accumulating the warning flags across the day rather than just one race, so that repeating the offence in subsequent heats has a consequence.
