I brought 3 new people to the track with me, along with my 2 boys (10 & 13). We all left at midnight for multiple reasons. (tired boys, 2 hour drive, son was part of worship team on Sunday) At the time, I guessed the show would not be over until after 2am, so we packed it up and went home.

I told my buddy who came with us for the first time that the show didn't get over until 3am. He responded, "you just can't do that to people." We all had fun, but that pretty much sums up my thoughts. Hopefully in the future, they will get this scheduled out better. I will not be back for the 4 crown if they expect to do it the same way again.

Simply put, nothing went wrong. There was no rain. There were no really long red flags. It was a picture perfect day in September. If they expected to run the whole program without working the track, then that was foolish. If they did expect to work the track, then it should have been planned into the program with an earlier start for hot laps, a break to work the track, and then racing. Even if they didn't have to work the track and went directly into heats after quals, the show couldn't have been over until 1:30am.
