You've obviously never had to get in a sprint car.
Head and neck restraint device, head sock, helmet, belts, someone to tighten you, and someone to push you up to the staging area.
This takes time. USAC does well with the 8 minute rule but people still get bit by it occasionally.
Sprint cars are so adjustable, teams are just guessing to make their car right for the feature. Having the opportunity to view the track before the main event sure is a luxury.
