"What were the time of day that the Stock and Super Stock were run back then? Were they run before most people were out of bed or could be at the track"?

Last year at Indy, while helping a friend in Stock, some of his friends from his home town came to watch stock and super stock eliminator. They called and said they were at the gate and could not get in untill 9AM. The problem was it was 8AM and the stockers had already started running. When I ask the NHRA people at the gate about it they said the racers gate was open but spectators had to wait until 9. So much for filling the grandstands.
