Re: Proving Grounds 2010 Feedback Thread

I had so much fun. As a newb though, I ran into some problems, and I'm one to ask around and find out what to do ahead of time too. Nothing that stopped me from going though

-Post drag/autoX rules/classes ahead of time. As a novice, I just ended up picking classes, literally guessing. The people I was signing up with didn't have a firm grasp (nor the time to discuss) what class I should be in.

-AutoX specific: chalk around the cones for course consistency, a small PA for the driver's meeting (impossible to hear), better organization for starting grid.

-I was under the impression that it was going to be $25 to drag all weekend, $25 for the autoX, and $150 for the road course. I was a bit surprised to be charged $25 at the gate only to find out it was merely for admission. Also, I didn't get a raffle ticket at the gate (friday, 1130pm).

-Maybe hold the raffle mid-day or something? 6pm at the end of the event, I was planning on coming over for the prize drawing, but I was way too beat.

-more signage (or something?) to use 105.3FM to hear the announcer (more BIR related I suppose).
