![Question](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
.
Has anyone been going this year??
I heard it's been pretty empty, and not a complete zoo like it usually was when I went??
I have a lot of stuff to do for each pass, and I can't handle waiting in staging for an hour plus every pass.
Then when or if you actually get 2 pass' they act like we should be grateful for our $40??
It would be nice to actually get 4 pass' in??
What's it been like, smooth and moving along, or same waiting BS, thanks guys.

Its not too bad. Been there a few times last year. I know you put up looking for help with the car at times. If you need a hand, shoot me a PM or message on chitown. I'm Jim Morris on there.

I had to cancel again the last 2 times I wanted to test, including Sat coming up.
My crew chief had to go out of town!!!
It sucks trying to get 2-3 of us free and willing for the same day.
There is just no way possible to run this thing, even as slow as it is, without 2 guys.
It overheats if you try to drive it, the fuel cell is up front and it takes 2 to remove the body, 2 chutes to pack, computer switch is in the back, etc etc.
I'm going to rebuild the regulators tomorrow, and change some trailer issues.
I would love to test at 66 one time this year to see if the clocks are different from 41???
My ET, 60' & MPH are not matching what I thought they should be??
I might just bug you shortly if everything goes good tomorrow??
Thanks for the offer!!
