It's impossible to reliably get word about a schedule change out to 53 drivers this close to an event. We'll just stick with the published schedule. What's a half-hour among friends?twistedwankel wrote:Since there are fewer people running in the AM than normal can we start at Noon again?

Geez, 5 runs would probably put us there well after dark!
No, Doug... you'll just have to find your way past the line of shame in just 4 runs.

In case no one else noticed? This is a Corvette friendly course. OR anyone else who can do a tighty whitey close to the cone drive? NO GATES.
Loren has a competitive side too. If I cannot beat the Mirage I will at least see the Mirage coming.

Hmmm... you're right, the sun sets an hour later. I had it backwards. But, I still don't think we're gonna roll the dice and try to do 5 runs when the event has 11 first-timers, 11 second-timers and 7 third-timers. That's a LOT of new folks.
Hey, I have an idea. Have y'all heard of a FAST Classic event? We do lots of runs at those events!

More runs is more fun when you're the driver. More runs is not necessarily more fun when you're the course working standing in 1000-degree heat or rain. Especially if you're slated to drive in the next group.Blue_Heron wrote:jbrannon7 wrote:The point here is fun.
