2) Music: I talked to Wade (track manager) as soon as I got to the track about the music. They did not have a radio at the present time only a CD player. Therefore that is why the music was what it was. Will work on it. Hard to please the masses.
3) Parking / Traffic Control: I mentioned before this was probably going to be a fiasco. I did see some good ideas from the previous threads and will take them to the proper people.
4) Staging Lanes: Having all four lanes open helped keep the line down for a while. Then it got totally out of control by people parking three deep all over the place. Spectators will definitley need to park on the other side if possible but will still have full access to both sides. People will need to understand that the pit roads are intended to be one way !
5) Car Trailers: As mentioned before they were there for a big race going on today (Saturday) and were given the opportunity to come to the track early to get a parking place. This will not happen all of the time so deal with it.
6) Waiting In Line: This is a direct reflection of how many cars show up. Cutting down on the spectator cars driving around on that side of the track should help some.
7) Club Parking: Not a whole lot of feedback on this topic but would probably be very hard to pull off.
General Track Knowledge: This pertains to prepping your car burnouts staging general track courtesy. This is something that people are going to have to learn. I know first hand that is where some the dislike from the domestic guys come from towards the import guys lack of general track knowledge. This is not to say that the domestics know it all and the import guys know nothing because this is not true. I saw a Camaro or two try to line the rear tires up on the beams a few times but overall it seems like more of the imports have a lack of track knowledge or procedures.
9) Time Slips: I agree that timeslips are needed. Give people the option to let their times be seen. Now this is only possible if both people racing agree one way or the other. Some people will not care if their time goes up and it will make it more amusing for the crowd. The track would probably raise the price a little to cover the extra manpower and paper.
Overall for this being the first full event under this format I thought it went rather well. The one thing I noticed is that people stayed in there little packs and did not venture out to meet other people. Maybe we should put something on the cars showing which club you are from your screen name and your real name. This would give people a chance to meet and make more friends. Of course some people may not want to reveal who they are so they can stay hidden behind their computers and flame people. 
Let me know if this sums it up. Please do not quote this post if you respond because it is already long enough. Just give me YOUR .02 cents. Thanks
OK...all good ideas except for the timeslips...this is why the cost is so low now..if they add that it will be more expensive..this event is made so people will go out there and challenge people Legally and to have fun if they want time slips go to Test n Tune.
also the drinking thing..personally on this night no beer or liquor should be allowed...it goes very late in the night and for the most part its probably underage people anyway. i dont want some asshole of a kid slamming into my car..cause if he does hell have more than a fucked up car..POINT MADE!
It was a very good event..like i said this event was designed to let us have fun and challenge our friends and non friends by racing. no timeslips no police nothing...just fun!!!
