Re: Parking at Indy
500 plus rigs parked in one day, Tuesday, if parking staff works 10 hours the average would be 50 rigs an hour for 10 hours. I doubt if the staff can have that kind of average. If you get there on Monday afternoon you will be in the second holding lot and have a poor chance of being parked on Tuesday. By the time you get parked on Wed. and get credentials, you may have missed your qualifying shot on Wed morning. Then if you have problems, you may miss your opportunity to qualify.
Can NHRA really not afford to pay parkers an extra day to start parking on Monday??
We talked with one racer who was not going to be able to get there til Tues. afternoon and he is thinking about withdrawing.
One more thing, Indy needs to be a pleasurable event. This is the crown jewel of NHRA! It does not need to be a mine field of "I gotchas"! $5 ice cream is bad enough!
