Funny josh, of the 8 seats I saved, 5 of them were for people that had never been before, so it worked out for them. I never used to save seats but finally was able to free up enough time to get there early enough to do so. If you can't beat em join em. Now the next race I'm going to be able to make I am leaving straight from work, and I'll take whatever seats are left when I get there, no complaints, unless someone wants to save one for me
