Sometimes we just want to sit and relax.
Yeah, I understand the old, as well as the sit & relax part.

It seems that, for many races, live timing does not work, at all. And, even when it does, there always seem to be lots of mistakes with the info there. I have sometimes reported one thing, because of what was on live timing, then had to go back & correct what I'd posted, after the DRC lists were posted.

Just thought that out of all the people at the races, maybe just one of 'em could post at least one Q-list for Stock & one for SS, maybe before dark that day. Hey, it ain't a life & death thang. Would just be nice.

Lots of young folks stay on either their phone or computer during most of the hours they are awake, every day. Some send dozens(maybe hundreds) of text messages per day. For those who know how to do it, posting a couple of Q-lists would probably not take more than a very few minutes of their day.

But hey, us fans will just have to take what we can get. Between live timing, DRTV, & DRC, we'll get by, I reckin. I remember visiting my grandparents when i was a kid. They had no electricity & no indoor plumbing. Had a wood stove & fireplace, kerosene lamps for light, a 2-holer outhouse, and you had to draw water from an open well, or haul it from a nearby creek. No radio, no TV, & certainly no cell phones or computers.

But, my Mom as well as her several brothers & sisters grew up just fine, without all the things we now have & take for granted. Yeah, especially in rural America, we've come a long way since the 1950's.

Good luck to all racers today ! Ya'll have fun & be safe !
