I know most probably feel that they should do it with our entrance fee money but it's not the case often enough. If you go out to eat the server should wait on you and do a good job for the price we pay for a meal. But almost all of us leave a tip. It's also a good way for the starting line crew to keep track of how the racers felt they did their job. BP

Although I agree with you Barry that a tip would show appreciation. I'm not sure it would be fair to other people in the division that work hard at these races.It would be a slap in the face for people like William Holmes who spend up to 12 hours a day in D1 at his post. I think at the end of the year the racers should pool together and do something for our division crews. I appreciate all the division personel and think all these jobs are worth more than the state minimum wage they get.
