A Message to Treddick104
Maybe they were good Friday and Saturday. I was not there, but I know I will not be back there again for another qualifier. Their so called "old school" signup sucks. It takes wayy to long to signup to race. I got there at 7:30 and I couldn't even make it out for my practice, and they ran out of LLQ papers so they had to make some more and you couldn't signup without them? But every other track can do it. I mean there's no reason you shouldn't have enough of thoes. I went 2 years ago for their qualifier and it was really good. They had the computer signups and everything. I don't know what happened..
I apologize for the issues that you encountered at sign up. LLQ papers are sent by mxsports and I questioned only having 500 of them, but then we heard that NONE of the other area qualifiers had sold more than that, so I didn't expect it to be an issue. This was my fault and I take responsibility for it. I know that because of it, those that came later had to endure some confusion and a longer than normal wait time to sign up on Sunday, again I apologize to all for this.
With all of that said... Sign up opened at 6AM - Mandatory Riders Meeting at 7:30 - Practice at 8:00 - Did you really think that you could get an AMA card, do paperwork for LL Qualifier, sign up, and get ready for practice in 30 minutes at an Area Qualifier?
Maybe something unforseen happened that you couldn't come earlier, but I suggest next time at any qualifier, you try to be there earlier. That doesn't excuse registration for the issues, just some helpful advice. I also know that they ran 2 full late practices after sign up closed, b/c of the delay at registration - I really hope you made it to one of them.
So here is the thing... There is more to a qualifier than the time you had to spend at sign up - Please don't judge the facility or event, just because you had a bad experience at sign up. All of the workers at Crow worked their behinds off and I was really happy with the job that everyone did.. I hope despite the issue at sign up on Sunday, you had a great time racing!
We would love to see you again in hopes that we can make things right with you!
