"Lollygaggers"

A couple of questions about this....

1) When we posted the first three pair, there would be one or two of these first six cars who waited and showed up last. Therefore holding up the entire session. What time limit should be given?

)How do you answer the racer who always shows up early in a session and wants to run early...when his opponent for the round waits 'til the very end. Why is is "OK" for the late racer to control the pairing? One wants to run early, one wants to run late...but the "late" arriver is in control. The early racer wants to know why we allow it?

I don't know what the proper answer is for either question. The usual answer is to just shrug the shoulders, and say there's nothing I can do about it. I'm interested in your answers as racers are split about 50-50 on this. Just consider me an interested spectator with a with a pretty good cheap seat to watch the races from.
