The reason the list isn't put at the gate IIRC is because Summit Point refuses to take responsibility for that. Basically they don't want to delay entry into the track just so they can run through a list of entrants and crew members. Not every driver shows up with all his/her crew in tow, so it makes it difficult to keep track of all that.
While the current situation isn't optimal, you have to cater to the lowest common denominator, aka the retards that are going to forget their passes and whine and bitch about it. The year we did send them out over 1/2 of the people showed up "forgot" their passes, so the decision was made to not bother with that again since the majority had spoken.
No-one wants to go stand in a line to get their refund when they could be getting their car ready, but that's why racers have crew and or friends/family they trust to go get their refund(s) for them.
