Anyone else suprised with Barber track time?

We can easily move the DE sessions to earlier in the day and move the Blitz race to the end of the day.[/quote]

I don’t see how that would help get the racers more time though.

Sad to say but, I am not surprised at all. In fact it is what I have come to expect from NASA events. That plus the fact that NASA is notorious for not penalizing racers is why Allen and I have refused to race with NASA. If this were not at our home track, we would not be doing this one. You pay money for the event, travel expenses and time off from work only to have races yellow or red flagged. BMW club races do not have these problems. With NASA it’s all about the money and profit. Are you listening Jim Pantas? Eric, I share your concerns. Unfortunately, Barber is a very tight track and passing is very difficult. Add to that is the fact that a certain number of racers have no or very little track time at Barber and the Spec field seems to have a certain number of yahoo cowboys who think they are better than they are and that makes a recipe for disaster. I hope I am wrong but past history is on my side.

Update. The latest draft of the schedule has a 30min race on Saturday. A vote was called for re. losing Sunday Qual and adding that time to the Sunday race. Since all of us that commented here on the idea supported it, I cast thumbs up vote for the idea.

As long as the race stays early in the day! Some have really long tows

Apparently the Ft Lauderdale airport is a known beehive of illicit activity. I tried to post something over on NASAForum and got the following error.

I like reason #1, but #3 has merit too.

Stop being pansies. Register for lightning and run PTE as well. Maybe Jim will give you a supersize discount.
