if you would have paid attention you would know that it actually made everything even better. Midnight Madness Saturday night wasn't anymore crowded that normal. NPR normally doesn't race on Sunday for open events, but the Thunder track day was slow and everybody was able to make as many passes as the wanted, they only had a 2-3 pass wait at any average time.

As for a date, check out NPR's schedule on their website and pick a date. Midnight madness is an event that goes from like 8:00p.m.-1:00a.m.

it was open "for sure", the track made the last minute change and there was no midnight madness on the 11th. There was nothing that could be done about it. Phone calls were made to the track about it and they refused to change it back... it's just one of those things

The only reason this date should be changed is for a rain out!
We need to let the track know a month in advance that we will be having a group GTG there on a certain day. The heads up will only be needed if there will be a big turn out. That's why we need to start making a list of members and friends that will be going and those that are unsure.
The list needs to be at the beginning of the thread.
The person who starts the thread will be responsible for keeping the list updated once or twice a week. That person is the only one that can edit is why. A moderator can too, but they never seem to show at out events.
I'd like to see at least one MODERATOR and a SPONSOR or two show up at this event as well.
Yes, I'm calling you out!
I'm sure they could make an exception or two for it every once and while and show there appreciation for there members and products being put to use!
Anyone agree with all of this?
