What's happening with this site? When I was first introduced in Feb the stats were already up when I came on this site, I liked what i saw so I went in March and there was a pic posted of the times but they weren't put up with pax times untill a week before aprils event. Now theres still no april pax times and may's times haven't even been posted It's like everyone is tired and don't wanna do it anymore.
I understand last event was on a holiday but in april we had trouble with the timing lights and started late and we didn't leave till around 4 4:30 because we did everything normal this time we started around the same time we did in april but we lost 2 races a drive through and no lunch I went to the store came back and the stock class was on there third run, then I get told by a friend (i'm not sure if it's true or not) but they said that someone told them they may not let me run because i didn't work the course the second time. which i thought we had a lunch break so i went to the store.
Maybe theres stuff going on I dont know about and i'm not trying to be an asshole I just wanted to bring this up.

I have no idea what's going on with everything you asked.
Unfortunately, I had to leave early in April, and I was in Birmingham during this last session.
Hopefully, whoever has the time sheets will post them up for everyone to see.

I didn't run at the last even so I wasn't there to take a picture of the times. Please remember this club is all volunteer. (we don't get paid and pay the same to run) So please feel free to do whatever work you feel is not being done.
I apologize for not getting the timing lights working sooner, but it took me awhile to figure out what was wrong. Since I wasn't running I showed up just to help out some with setup. And again since this is an all volunteer organization there was nothing stopping you from helping get the lights set up.

The day was cut short because it was Mother's day. Six runs isn't bad though, most other SCCA regions get six runs and they are more expensive. And I'm pretty sure you'll get to run next month, I didn't even know we were skipping lunch. Although, even when we weren't on lunch we struggled to find workers. A lot of people didn't help out this time, and when people don't volunteer it wastes time because we have to go around asking for people to help out. Next month we are going to have worker sign in sheets to keep track of who has worked. And as for the times, the guy that does them lives in Florida and doesn't come to the region very often. Myself or someone else will try to post the results.

We don't need this kind of attitude, this is one of the best places to autocross with a dedicate person running the show 99% of the time by himself. When is time to work some people do not show up, one of the requirements is that we work when we are not running. Myself I just love to have fun go fast without a speed ticket. I visited other places and no others compare to Wiregrass or Dixie. We do this to have fun. Go fast and don't worry who is first or last, step on the pedal and avoid to hit the cones. By the way this is a lay back place to have fun, volunteers and welcome. We are tide group that love to help each whenever is possible.

The worker sign in sheets is a good idea. Except for the first month i've brought someone different each time and this time me and him were waiting at a spotting staion during tech and most of the people I come with are helping . Maybe we should have a sticky on everything that needs to get done so everyone know what all is involved so we can help more because as far as i'm concerned. you guys make the track but i'm not sure if I can help or if you have to do it since I also heard the safety guy has to approve the track then I'll help mark the cones, then the lights and everythign is done, but if theres more involved I don't know about it so maybe a sticky will help everyone know what is involved and help out more maybe even take a head count and assign jobs before each event.
I like the place and people and it's a good event and i'll admit i don't know much about scca but I enjoy going to race and try to bring more people every month. If anytime i'm out there and you guys need help don't hesitate to ask i just don't know everything that's involved but i'm usually there around 9:30 and just need some time to check fluids and empty the car.
