Okay, the blacklights are down and out of the way. We didn't change the whole track, but made that horseshoe into a triangular shape with a funky triple with a bigger ramp in the middle. And right after the double table tops right out of the whoops theres a tight S curve that takes you to the triple imediately. Also one and a half whoop was removed. We will try to make changes regularly now, and if there's anything that is popularly disaproved of I will change it. Shirt's will be handed out to all the first place winners this Saturday! I have all sizes from medium to XXXL, white, purple, and royal blue.

Also guys, I will be planning a trophy race somewhere in the middle of the season, I will let you know what weekend it will be as soon as I double check with the other events that are semil local. I will have prizes, trophies, and shirts for the season winners as well. I will post what the winners will be getting soon.

That wasn't the issue. It happens all the time, where you need to add late entries or make adjustments to the heats or mains. It's not Jake or Darrin's fault that the software went south all of a sudden. They are going to send Doug some log files and he is supposed to send a new version of the software. I hope that solves it. These things happen. One weekend when Porter and I were at Blue Vue, they had to run clear back to P-Hill because the computer crashed and they had to grab another one. That was almost a 2 hour break in racing. No one blamed anyone, sometimes things like that happen and there's nothing you can do but try to get through it.

Very true AP. Other than the computer issues I would still like to see things run a little quicker, just my personal opinion. It seems when ever we decide to take a 10 min break between rounds it always turns into a 1 hour break instead, because of guys getting on the track and practicing. Darren needs to step up in those situations and kick the guys off the track and get the next round started. I'm all for taking a few breaks when the turn outs not huge, but we still need to keep on schedule.

Plus you guys (the racers) all know you have to marshal the heat following your race this is not new. Daren should not have to continually ask for people to come marshal or for volunteers. Things like that really slow down the program as well, you can't put all the blame on the guys running the races.
