Ok thanks. we'll tell them to stay home. Sure appreciate the heads up though!!

Also just so you know as your an active asset to the club, just wanted to let you know our perplexed truck changes as required by the overlanders rules.

This is what should/might happen:
1)Carb change time between class 3 & 4 drag
2)Then carb change time and tire change time between class 4 drag and class 2 bog
3) then Carb change time between Class 3 bog and class4 bog.

That's what we're looking at now!

Thanks Justin !

I hope that the days schedule of events will be run in a way so that those racers that enter multiple events, and also multiple classes within those events, are given a sufficient amount of time to make equipment changes as needed. Many racers enter multiple classes/events that require them to make carb changes, tire changes, etc.

Some of the biggest crowd pleasing entrants do run different classes that require at least tire changes between rounds. Within reason, please give them the time that they need to make these changes. Race day should be fun and entertaining for all, not a stress fest for those entrants trying to make equipment changes and hurry to the starting line before their next class begins.

Maybe the ATV's events could be mixed amongst the truck events, to give the truck entrants this needed time between their events. Then you might have the situation of a truck racer that also wants to race an ATV, so the scheduling of the days events is in no way an easy thing to do.

It would be nearly impossible to please everyone and it is virtually impossible to set up an event schedule that fits everyone's particular needs. As has been done in the past, it would be nice if allowances can be made to make for an enjoyable day for all. Like I said before, the scheduling of the days events is in no way an easy thing to do.

Thanks in advance to the club members that work so hard to put on a good show for the benefit of all in attendance.
