i think that letting extras in undermines the whole concept of giving people 6 runs. thats why we charge a bit more than other groups. i think we should limit it to 69 total in 3 heats and turn away everyone after that.

Agreed, but you could've run 75+ cars @ 6 runs each last time if you had started exactly at noon, and not had such huge breaks between groups, and not had constant timer issues/re-runs...

Not complaining, just saying it CAN be done! :wink:

More coffee now,

I agree that we could have run that many people but you know as well as anyone that your not going to have an event that runs perfectly clean with no mishappens. Set-up got behind because the VMP guys weren't there to open the gate when they should have been. We improvised the best we could and started handing out registration forms and such outside the gate. Re-runs can only be avoided to a certain extent. The drivers were so close together it was hard to get out and replace a cone in such a short amount of time. Perhaps spacing the starts out just a little more in order to give workers time to make sure the course is set will cut down on re-runs.
