Indy Racing League Security Chief Charles today raised the IRL's threat level to puce in reaction to recent unpleasantness on the track.
Charles, who has become a bit of a star around the league for deploying himself in a Jet Li fashion during a pit-lane scuffle at Watkins Glen, said recent post-race pissiness at Nashville caused him to raise the threat indicator.
Puce is just below the top setting, vermilion, and above burnt mauve. A puce rating encourages "competitors, fans and yellow shirts to have increased awareness of threats of brain lock, princess-like behavior or fits of helmet slapping, wrestling on the ground and belly bucking. Spectators should also be on the lookout for tiny security cars to pull up and 29 or more clowns in stylish team entourage ensembles to jump out."
Reports that Charles has been contacted by pro wrestling and movie legend Steven Segal for possible collaboration could not be confirmed. Sources say a clip focusing on Charles by Arni the Indy Insider helped touch off the flood of fame.
