Default Re: saving spot in Div 1

We pulled in Orlando for the Div II race this year at about 1pm on Thursday. The entrance side pits were empty and we were told to go to the other side, after circling the pits a couple of times we drove back to the pit entrance and told the young lady there that if it was OK we would pit on the entrance side which we had done in the past as there were no spots that were not filled or saved. She asked us to follow her back into the pits, she stopped at a racer's pit who had about four spots saved and told him he had to take some of the tape down and allow us to pit there. He told her right quick he promised the spots to late arrivals and he refused her request. She backed down and we pitted on the other side which is what we wanted to do in the first place.
Sad story as he was very rude to the young lady and directed some of his comments to us and I may have mentioned to him what he might want to do with HIS spots.
I have saved spots as most racers have at one time or another but I think 99% of racers would give them up immediately if asked by track personnel to do so.

I'll be sure to bring my industrial size magnet on wheels! By the way I found a spot over near Cecil to park but thanks for your offer.

I just left Atco. Looks like there's still a few asphalt spots open but the gamblers racers are in them for tonight's race. Plenty of spots on gravel. I didn't mind it for Rob's race this past weekend.
