Exactly. So how does an experienced driver end up in Strat 12 to start a race when he shouldn't have been anywhere near Strat 12 to begin with? Strat 3 is nowhere near Strat 12.

If Strat 12 was ever needed, I'm guessing you're in cruise control with a big lead and dialing that setting should be low stress. It's nowhere near 3 or 6, so how exactly does it get erroneously selected?
