I had not been keeping up on all the 'drama' leading up the the event. I offered my help 3 days before the event... Comeing to the track I thought all I'd be doing was 'helping'. I had no idea I'd be in charge of turning people away, or even placing any Chevy at all. I was under the impression I'd ONLY be placing the Fords as I had a hand in changing the rules to make it more 'Ford friendly'. Rob & his wife, Heather & I were the only ones placing the cars.....not just the Fords. We were given NO instructions on who was allowed to race & who wasn't. No instructions on what setups were 'legal' & what wasn't. The rules did not cover every last setup we ran across. Mainly LS1's, LT1's, & Fords. After ariving at the track I soon realized nobody seemed to be in control of organizing the event staff. As time slipped by without anybody teching (close to 7pm) I realized there'd be no racing if we took the time to go over each & every setup thuroughly (as it was suppose to be). We teched over 120 cars in 45 minutes. That's on average of less then 30 seconds per car. If I'd taken even twice that amount of time (1 minute per car) We'd have been teching cars till 9pm! I did what I could to get thing rolling.... I was not about to turn away ANY cars from racing at the event. I'm sorry if I screwed up in any way. Keeping the racers racing was my only motivation.
