Thanks for the good times. The schedule is brutal but Goetz gets us through it. Hoping to make it back next year.

For next year, the idea of a Friday evening qualifier to make Saturday a little easier is being floated around. Nothing concrete yet.

That first round is the killer with transponders and checking in. Also, put more in the heats! Could have cut down on an hour of run time per round.

I wouldn’t change it. It’s long, but there is a reason I came to this event and not others. If I had to show up to practice on thursday, it becomes twice as expensive at work.

Nothing I would change other than setting class caps that capped at a full heat so that heats of 4-5 don’t happen.

Thanks to everyone who volunteered their time to make this event happen!
