The guy that comes up from NY with his supercharged Z06 breaks his car just about every time, yet has it fixed by the end of the day, runs and drives home. Yesterday we had at least 5 cars break and get repaired and a Viper run over the wire for the timing light (fortunately missing the light itself).
The last four times I have been up

#1 Event cancelled due to thunderstorm with no refund after I had worked for 2 hours in the sun and had no runs

#2 Everyone says they get 5-8 runs of 60 sec+ , I got 3 runs of 35 sec

#3 I hope to get to a bigger lot to avoid slaloms, yet every course I ran there had tons of slaloms.

#4 I had to autox in the dark because they ran so late for 3 runs!!!!

Sounds like you were going to SCCA events. The SVT event Saturday had 10 runs on a 100 second course and we were done by 4pm. If it wasn't for a couple of car breakdowns in the middle of the course we would have been done earlier. They limit the signup to 55 cars where as SCCA can have over 100.
