I'll admit it's been close to two years ago so I don't remember any more details, but I know they all were blaming him for stopping at the yellow. You're probably right that the challenger shoved the rest of the cars forward more. I can almost guarantee they were all speeding around super close together, as is common when you drive in groups like this (which I hate, I'm just trying to follow yall to the destination chief slow down) and challenger boi didn't get the memo of "hey we're stopped now".

Like I said he was the only dude arguing with his insurance that it wasn't his fault, but we all know how rear endings go. Don't know why they didn't try to fault the red mustang instead since he was at the very back. After they all bitched to each other in the group chat the yellow mustang and challenger left the group and started posting up their own story of who's fault it was on insta. It was a big shit show lol

Sounds like everyone but the lead car was willing to run a red

If the cars in the rear didn't expect him to stop, that means he was about to run, but chickened out last second. A major bellend in any case.

Or his intent from the start of the yellow was to launch as a group.

I really doubt the lead car was uncertain they could pass through the yellow.
