Same thing that happened to me Sunday when both of us went around the water box. The driver should always wait in the pre-stage beam for the other driver to pre-stage, especially when they know the guy is going deep but can't get up to the line yet (burnouts, guy mopping up the previous driver, etc.), but they weren't doing that. Guys pulled around the water and immediately staged, leaving you pressed for time.
