SCCA #7 - 9/17/2006 - TMS Bus Lot

[POS Racing]

BTW-I agree with Altiain and POS, I had the unfortune of working grid when all the SAE cars came out,

Is there a time change from Lubbock to Ft. Worth of about 6 months, didn't see any SAE cars yesterday???

I think we were talking about the event on the 17th.

But no doubt some of the mod kids have a history of being tardy, but yesterday was over the top.

Hey Solo RX-7 you are one of the cats in charge at the SCCA can we get your explanation for the "Special" Circumstances that let this one slide??

I'm not sure what was going on there. I was over in the paddock while all this happened so I don't have a clue what the story is. I'll find out what was up and address any issues that need to be.

Thanks! Standing out in the rain to watch a mod car go past at parade lap speeds kinda sucks.

Then when they called out to the corners to let us know that mod car still has at least 2 runs to go caused the suck factor to multiply. Especially since the grid was empty because everyone else was done.........

I did see the car in question changing tires, but I don't think that was at the end of the day . . . I was loading up by then.

On another note - my performance at this event was better than it has been in a year. I have to thank several folks, but especially POS for assistance in pointing out the bad habits and attitude I've developed.

I agree with POS and altiain on the mod issue. I understand the need to not be in grid with the rest of the cars. But they seem to be abusing the format waiting for the best conditions before they run. Seems like every event we have to wait on course while the mod cars finish their runs that they could not get in with everyone else. If they are having car trouble then I understand but standing in the rain while this happened
made it alot harder to take.

Well I chose not to say that right when I got home from that race, due to me being really mad about it, and then just kind of forgot about it until yesterday.

These are the resasons that I don't go to SCCA events anymore! It is just not fun when you balance out the little seat time and things that you have to put up with.

[Robert]

Overall it was a fun event at least for those in the first run group. We just get a little cranky after standing in the rain for 2 hours.
