Cool Re: Strange happenings in Stock race 1 in Tx.

Just talked with Doug Duell. Like Brett said .... no win lights or time tickets. People that won , thought they lost, and didn't go to the scales and fuel check. Sounds like a bad situation..... Is a smart phone considered loose Ballast? LOL

A cheap solution would be for the tower to radio to the scales who won, they could even give you a thumbs 👍 or down 👎would solve the problem, YATHINK ?

That was my suggestion at the Indy point race (Saturday)
No idea if you won or lost. I simple thumb up and you stop
at the scale.
How hard could it be and I don't think it is that un-resonable
of a request from the racer. After paying $200 to race

Why would everybody not go across the scales, just to be safe?

We use to always stop at the scales to make sure the other guy weighed ok. But I'm old also haha.

I always wait at the scales if I lost a round just to be sure. My dad has been reinstated over the years a couple times when the winner drove on by the scales. And I'm one of the young ones at 51...

Can't give you Like here, Mr 1.
I don't like any of this non- paper time slip crap, but geez...

You can buy a NEW Samsung A 11 for less than 200 bucks, with a year warrantee..It'll
do anything you need to do here.. Maybe 50 bucks a month for basic internet..Verizon will give veterans 10% off of that.
You guys spend a grand to go to a points meet, so don't tell me you can't afford this. ;-)

I was wondering what happened as some the runs I looked at in round 1 seemed to have the losers in round 2. They need to have some system to let the winners know they won other than by cell phone. I would never think to carry my phone and if I did it would probably die about when I needed it.
