Since the bulk of you ninnys can't grasp that, it's obvious that you have never run an event. Let me break it down to you.

Events start way the hell before any drivers get there.
There's track set-up
Making sure that everyone that is helping is there (they never are)
Laying signs for noobs to get to the event
Tech inspection when you guys do show up
Finding the person to open the track (or calling him if he overslept)
Dealing with random people
43243252155 phone calls from people either lost, overslept, broken down or any other number of things that go wrong.
Drivers meetings (there never is one, someone ALWAYS misses it)
Rounding up drivers for the meetings.
Setting up gate detail
Making sure safetly crew is there.

Thats before the event even starts. Once it starts, shit flys 5455435 ways. They don't HAVE time to compete in a Drift Fury event because they are running the hell all over.

Who is too close,
Group line ups
So and So feels cheated
Someones not manning the gate, gotta replace them.
Bob needs to pee, send someone out to man cones
Can't find anyone, I'll go do it.
blah blah blah the list goes on and on.

If Tracy has time to piss in a cup at one of her events, I would be suprised.

Dude, thanks! This whole thing is worth it to know that one person gets it. I really appreciate that.

We run a NATIONAL drifting series with 3, one more time.....3 staff members....for 0 money right now. We even lose money right now...all for the love of it. All hoping to bring the sport up to par. All hoping to give people a place to go to drift and give away money to some folks. Gawd forbid we actually start making money at it for al of the hard work we had put into it. We'll suck even more I presume.
