I think we all understand the not being able to hear the call and being parked on the north 40 ! Every race I've ever been to Its the deliberate holding back that needs to be addressed. That's why you see 2 B/SA cars 10 F/SA cars then 4 B/SA cars and a frustrated tech official. If they are going to run them in order they should put a time limit on it . Also when I'm at the track and I'm where I can't here a call. I'll notice a swarm of stockers heading up so I follow.

The text message is a great idea btw !

Does Division 2 have a text messaging service or is it only at national events? I thought I heard that D2 does have it also?...

Division 2 does have the text messaging system, and it is in use this weekend.

I would put a time limit on classes called, if you aren't there by that time, put a line across back of staging and send em packing ,bye runs to the people who don't play games! People start missing class , I'm thinking they may show up a little earlier. Pretty simple concept really.

Maybe if everyone would show up on time and quit wasting the tech officials time and pissing them off and it ran smoothly , maybe the quotas would start coming up on natl events, because they all the sudden have an extra 4 hours at the end of each day hmmm.

Try showing up late to work every day

I agree, but not just for class, eliminations too... and close the lanes 5 minutes after the 3rd call - then give out the singles - how long do you think it would take for people to learn to come to the lanes on time? We wait all day to run 2 or 3 times and then can't come up in a timely manner - what's with that? Cudo's to the guys who do come right up!
