(Going to be that Guy) mcsmooth and all - what are the plans for the controlled practice? 30m sessions per class? Grouping classes? I'm just wondering because there are a lot of folks signed up for slow classes (rubber TC and 1/12) as compared to the faster modified/foam claasses.

Gonna group cars by class and they'll get a set amount of time. Just as it's been done at the HC in the past. Obviously, larger classes will have more time allotted.

A practice schedule has been made and sent to the other organizers for approval. It should be up within the next day.

Default Assigned pitting

Since we have a number of complaints about who wants to sit with who and who is sitting in the back room or not. There will be no assigned pitting. If you want a certain spot get there early and claim your spot. I am not dealing with " I want to sit with this group but I don't want to be in the back room"

The doors will be open Friday at 8am, not a minute sooner. There will be no pit setup Thursday night either. There are exactly 101 pit spots have at it!

No, I just spent a month getting everyone with their buddies in groups because they wanted that, and someone complains that they don't to be in the back room but wants to be with their group. Well that person just ruined it for everyone.
