Thanks!

It was a great event. A lot of vehicle's and setup's first time out for the year so some people had issues but it was still really fun. Scheid rail went some 4.4's going all over the track.

There was great weather, plenty of people and a good time to be had. It would have been nice to have had as good a turnout on racers as there was audience.

It may have been the amount of booze I consumed, but I feel like there was a lack of organization. Didn't stop me from watching some damn good racing and meeting some new folks.

Racers I spoke with said the pace was a bit on the slow side. Was there much breakage?

Some, but a lot of it was trying to give racers time between rounds to address things.

8/9. There was also some issues with the tree, at the worst time possible. Made some PS trucks sit on boost for waaay too long.

Sounds like operator error. Compulink isn't known for $hitting the bed much.
