Maybe next year I'll leave him a big sign that says Mitsubishi=Mitsoobeeshee lol.

Have drag tech not take 2 hours, it should take 30 seconds to figure out what class a car goes in and check a few things over. Real awards ceremony, might be hard with some many things going on at such different times. Maybe do the drag eliminations in a way that all the finals are last, instead of just random based on number of cars in the field.
This. It seemed like the organization was kind of scattered. A list of fastest times for each event would be awesome. Even if it is posted at the end of the day people are still curious to see where everyone else is sitting.
