Just wanting to provide facts if entry numbers are going to be in the discussion.
The only thing that this proves is that ROAR knew it was going to have more than 200 entries and should have made every possible effort to accommodate at least 217 racers, not 180. Not push the fault of this off onto the racers.
The only good thing that could happen for those that don't get to attend this year is it rain all week. (I know, NOT FUNNY, right?) Well, for those that get to go to this event, good luck.
