A couple years ago I was running both Stock and Super Stock at the same event. Made my run in Stock, came back, did my logbook, etc., checked over everything on the SS car... meanwhile they had already been calling SS for awhile. I'm thinking I'm going to be late for the session.... as it turns out, I was in the first pair out at least 3 times that weekend. I'm thinkin', what're these people DOING?

I've actually *tried* to get to the lanes after certain lollygaggers before, just to see if I could do it. Nope, fail.

What's up with being paired and then sittin'? When you come to the lanes, you should be ready to go, other than a quick check of the tires. In IHRA, when they pair up opponents, they are immediately directed to the head of the lanes.
