Thank you for bringing the 1/2 mile event to Chicago. Racing was on a runway was awesome, something I wanted to-do for a very long time. We were lucky to have decent weather even though the rain Saturday afternoon was inevitable. You are welcome to come back to Chicago. I am sure I speak for a lot of people when I said I had a great time.
A few SUGGESTIONS for future events. (Chicago or other locations)
That is all, thanks again!
A few SUGGESTIONS for future events. (Chicago or other locations)
- Garbage cans - I don't think I saw a single one. A lot of garbage from disrespectful people was all over the airport grounds.
- PA System - We could not hear anything in the pits, or the other end of the runway. It would be nice to hear cars MPH or if the white Mercedes blocking the staging lanes needs to be moved. Even during the important drivers meeting we couldn't hear anything. More speakers in more locations are necessary.
- Staging lanes - Saturday morning myself and others were getting frustrated on how slow races were getting off. Not sure if you tried this before but the 1/4 mile tracks around here race a row of cars then another row. When you are done making a pass you go back into the same row. I know running cars down the line can minimize people "cheating" or getting more runs but it sucks standing by the car the whole time and moving it every few min until you race. If you run cars row by row when you are not racing you can go use the bathroom, get food, watch the races, whatever, until the rotation gets back to the row you were in. The races moved faster once the day progressed, but Saturday morning a lot of us were wondering what the hell is going on.
- Runway - Find the one they used in Fast and Furious 6.
That is all, thanks again!
