It seems to be a common theme at most national events that I've attended where Round 1 will be in the morning, then due to various delays, Rounds 2, 3, and 4 will be pushed to after the pros which is often times at night. Then, you are rushed through with little cool down time because everyone is ready to go home for the day!

It seems like there could be a better way!

Personally, I would like to see Sportsman have set schedules in the morning like we typically do but then use Sunday Morning before Pro Eliminations as the make up time for any schedule delays.

I'd be curious to hear others opinion!

You just have to come to terms with the fact that we are the filler between the nitro cars. Our schedule is like the Cable company, Sometime between 8am and 5pm. We will always be the ones that get shuffled around.

Although I admit it would be nice to have a schedule that said more than "Stock 2 runs"
