Live from the Phoenix LODRS

Here's the ones I was talking about:

Looks like he has sold quite a few and that he adds a new item as soon as one ends so he doesn't have too many on there at one time.

Also, I said I reduced them to 1 kbits/s that should read 1 mbits/s.

Wonder why 1320go on my phone doesn't show Firebird as connected?

They just canceled racing for the day. Racing will resume tomorrow at 9AM with the same schedule that was posted on DRC.

Also, this is a rescheduled race so it looks like it will be random pairing for first round. I talked to Mike Rice and he said it probably is random pairing, but he isn't sure. He is going to check and have them announce it over the PA.

Alan has already announced that it is a rescheduled race and that you can withdraw if you want. To withdraw, you just don't show up and they will consider you withdrawn. If you want to keep the points and count the race you have to talk to Mike Rice.

I uploaded a video of the pits from the top of my ramp truck and some footage of Steve Couch's new DP:

You have any idea of the car count, Toby?

Mark Faul · 02-20-2011, 08:53 PM

Should have waited a little longer to cancel IMO. And same with most people I've talked to. Hasn't rained a drop since the postponement. Could have got at least one round in and half the people could have gone home...

When I was up at the tech trailer earlier today they just happened to be talking about that. I think the number I heard was 380 or maybe it was 280. I think a lot of people didn't come because of the weather forecast and others didn't come because there wasn't a national event the week before. I heard they were expecting 500 cars.

Toby how can they do Random Pairing for the reschedule if the field was set ?
I think the guy with a first round bye might have something to say about that.
Besides thats about the only thing to look forward to being Fast anymore with a
odd number field.
