I am usually hanging around in the pits long after the last flag at LPS, and I've been getting home before midnight. Last week I hung out for quite a while, stopped at Hardee's in Plainfield, and was home at 11:45.
I feel for ya having to work that early on a Sunday. That's what pays the bills.
On a typical Sat night I do get home early from LPS,and thats why I go there. Last weekend wasnt typical at all. If I had known that beforehand I would have gone elsewhere. Every time I have ever been to LPS the sprints run first,last weekend it was the supports first. When your having Thanksgiving dinner and usually start out with turkey,wouldnt it feel a bit different starting with dessert instead? Thats how I looked at it last weekend.
Even though Lawrenceburg is further away,I have been out of the gate there early enough to get home at a reasonable hour for me to catch some sleep before work. Not much,but some.
