Default New Nationals Schedule

We've revised the event schedule in an effort to make it easier for people to attend. Overwhelmingly, it was made clear that the total number of days away from home is important, so we have condensed the event to two days and evenings.

Thursday Meet-n-Greet hospitality event at the hotel, and pre-event tech inspection.

Friday Morning - HPDE Roadcourse and show event begins. Possible Autox on Friday as well.

Friday evening (5pm) - Bracket Drag Racing begins

Saturday Morning - Show and Autox begins.
Saturday Noon - Open drag passes (test and tune) and Quick-8 Qualifying begins
Saturday evening - Quick-8 Drag Racing

Sunday - Go Home

Please discuss...

Also, right now, nobody has volunteered to be responsible for the autox event. If it does not have someone to run it, we'll cancel the reservation for the cones and timers. Volunteer, or better yet, convince your club to volunteer...

See you in Topeka,
Dale

No awards banquet? What about those of use who have already paid? I'd volunteer for the autox event. There would have to be others though as I know nothing about autox.

We're stealing your awards banquet money and buying beer for the private organizers party...

Volunteer for the autox. If people don't like how you run it, they can volunteer to help you.

Your job would be almost purely organizational. Organize the tech inspectors, make sure somebody knows how to lay out an autox course, help the people running the timing trailer with participant check-in, class everyone in Street Modified, and make sure everything gets picked up at the end of the day. Oh yeah, grab the results page so people don't castrate you because they can't find the results on the internet.

PM Gargoile if you are serious about helping out, we can definately use your help.

Thanks,
Dale

Yes, please send me a PM if you want to be a volunteer and what you would like to volunteer for.

Thank you.

And we're stealing your banquette money and using it for lap dances at Baby Dolls

Good plan. The shorter hotel stay is a significant cost reduction that could help sway some more people into attending.

Some people bunked together and had to put up with Tim's snoring.

Dinners at the track... that's how real enthusiasts eat.

It's like a picnic in a park, except you can smell race fuel and clutches, and the meats fully cooked and the pickles are free.

btw, I'm banning myself from surfing YouTube now.

The Bar at the hotel will see the biggest decrease in spirits (both kinds)

I think this is a good Idea to cut down on costs for this year and hopefully will increase attendance.....

It will be more difficult to autox is you want to do the HPDE and run Quick-8, but the autox is at risk of being dropped due to lack of people volunteering to help with it anyway...
