Oh yeah, handle side faces up on the timer box before you open it.
Sounds good. Thanks for the heads up.

Gotcha. I figure I could wrap them in cellophane and throw them in my storage shed. I wrap my slicks in cellophane after each event, so I've already got plenty. How much is the marble dust? Maybe I'll buy a bag and try it out. If it doesn't work, I'll cut it up and use it for lawn edging.
So far, I'm looking good to get out of work early to pickup the marble dust.

Unless plans change I will NOT be at the event tomorrow. This is the last available Saturday to spend time with my son before he leaves for Canada for the rest of the summer. And, looking ahead, the US government has already told us he has to leave the country by this time next year. (Yes, I'm not kidding even though he has lived here since he was 7 - he doesn't really remember much about living in Canada.) I'm trying to get the highest quantity of quality time with him that I can.
I hope the weather holds for y'all. Looks like an enjoyable course.

As of now, no one. Volunteers? They can co-drive with me if that's what it takes.

Guys, don't panic. Didn't I commit to tow the trailer?
I keep my commitments!
I'm going to tow the trailer to Brooksville in the morning then take off with my son and come back for it mid-afternoon. No problem.

No panic...was executing Plan B (also have a Plan C and D...this isn't any slap-dash operation!). But thank you.

That's a relief...I was planning to get up really, really early to make it to Ft Myers by 7am.

So my passenger window did not want to go up so I decided to grab it with a pair of pliers any way is it a problem for me to run my car if it has some broken glass stuck in the door. I don't see how it could come out unless I roll it over also I'm missing 1 point form the 4-24 event I ran e2 and got 7th and bye the looks of it I'm going to need it
thanks Chris Baron

Note to self: Don't lift window glass with pliers.
Okay, got it.
Nah, loose glass bits in the door shouldn't be a problem.

As long as the glass is fully inside the door, and the interior panel is there to contain it, it's fine.
As for finishing position/point corrections: They need to be done prior to the following event. It's at the bottom of this page:

Sorry, man.
edit: oops, Loren beat me to it.
