Big poof drag racers?That's a bit harsh,init?I thought it was the officialdom that canned the day for all & sundry...even those of us trackday nutters that drove 3 hours to watch a different type of motorsport that still involves our favorite brand/s of car. So...anyone else feel ripped off that not another drop fell AFTER the day was postponed?!?

[BU5TER]

I'm still pumped and keen to race, I'm going Wed night anyone else keen?

[Duncan]

you missed lunch Jase

[nfs13b]

bring on wednesday....... My car will be ready for that

[LTSJayce]

you missed lunch Jase

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Yep,I couldn't get near a 'puter 'till just earlier...Stoopid me for leaving earlier ! Still,I'm assuming I also missed a whole day of racing,had it gone ahead. Whilst a trackday would've gone ahead,no matter the conditions,it's a a right royal pain in the proverbial that the powers that be canned todays' meeting. Still,I"ll probably still do six hours return drive to watch 'Lines hurl themselves down the strip at WSID! Who made the call anyway? I know it's more Mother Nature's fault,but it's gotta suck being the person that canned a day that didn't receive a drop after it was pulled...meh;bring on the next day!!

"big p00f drag racers all running off at a hint of rain "

Yes Duncan the following comments are directed towards you.....

Maybe it was pulled by people who didn't travel 6hrs to be here, or book 2 nights in hotel to attend. Or, hang on maybe they didn't have a car to run.....or don't even "race". Ahh well WSID cancelled a points round of the National Champs to make a day for us to run.....good call......didn't even get a phone call for cancellation....or a call to join a bbq for lunch...... its late and im hungry......can't you tell!!

I tried calling 3-4 times after the last time I spoke to Stacey but it kept going to Pauls msg bank

[Duncan]

Nice one Paul.

1. The day was cancelled so that every entrant would not lose their money.

2. If even one car ran the organisers charged us full price.

3. Even a light shower means the track is unavailable to be used for between 1 and 2 hours.

4. No-one on the SAU committee is a weather specialist, we had to decide on whjat we could see

5. While you may have a 10 second car there were some quick cars as well particularly the 9 or even 8 second rotors and there was serious concern from the track about their ability to pull up in a braking area with standing water when running 10" wide slicks.

6. Despite there being 50 paid entrants, you personally were contacted a number of times by a number of people once the decision was made to minimise the impact on an out of towner.

Feel free to organise a dust garage drag day and take the financial risk yourself if you don't like how the SAU committee did it.

Adam and the rest of the team put an enourmous amount of effort into organising this day, and the fact that we have cancelled mean we have even more work to organise the next one with organising ppl who could not make this and had to drop out, the waiting list etc etc. And comments like yours really motivate people to organise events in their volunteered time.

Feel free to prove me wrong by spending your time to organise an event that doesn't interest you like a track day.

[ido09s]

at the end of the day your always going to step on someones toes by canning an event or running an event when the weather is like it was..... i am sure people would have had something to say had the event been run and then cancelled due to a few light showers through out the day.... we should all be greatful that the SAU crew are willing and able to organise events like this for us all to enjoy, even if the weather doesnt make it easy

hahaha Duncan.....its a trash talk thread

Wise decision was made in the end to suit all people, and always grateful of the work Adam/Bu5ter put in to organise these days. That does not mean i cant be upset and put out by the decision made...does it?

Silly name calling (dust garage) is very childish and pathetic.....but typical of you.
