VERY!!

Thanks to their financial controller... from about a year ago they started to take the late thing very serious with no exceptions for anyone..

fatboymotorspor · 22 Nov 2007, 18:26 (Ref:2073693)

having to enter 2 weeks in advance is a pain in the hole not like the are going to be turning people away

think ill save 100 euro and do the sprint the weekend after

much better event to do alright!!!! :P

The Fiddler · 22 Nov 2007, 19:05 (Ref:2073704)

i take it its a carlow event then. by the way surely there is a closing date for entries for the sprint as well. most well organised events have closing dates for enteries. if you read rules and regs they give reasons why there is a closing date. sounds like sour grapes because someone will be charged extra for not entering on time.

Cryos · 22 Nov 2007, 19:08 (Ref:2073706)

once again no me on the list.....

The Fiddler · 22 Nov 2007, 19:12 (Ref:2073709)

saw a few names missing. i think theyre trying to tell you something.

Cryos · 22 Nov 2007, 19:16 (Ref:2073711)

i dunno they got the mail cos i got the reply

to be honest... closing dates dont effect rallysprints quite as much as they do rallycross. as tom pointed out grids have to be done to try and accommodate everyone and if 5/6 entries are taken on the morning thats an extra heat in each run and that has knock on effects for the whole event. we close on a friday evening before the event simply to do a programme and inform the scrutineers of the entries.

The Fiddler · 22 Nov 2007, 19:18 (Ref:2073714)

at least this time you got a reply. would give them a bell tomorrow to be on safe side. in saying that there was quite few the last day that wer not in the programme.

Cryos · 22 Nov 2007, 19:18 (Ref:2073715)

not trying to be smart with anyone but you can do grids in Excel or Ms Access.....

The Fiddler · 22 Nov 2007, 19:22 (Ref:2073718)

we all know and understand that so why time and time again do people leave it to last minute to put their entry in and then moan and groan about late entry fee. if they have been doing rallycross for years and know the rules and regs how many more years will they have to do it before it sinks in.

Cryos · 22 Nov 2007, 19:46 (Ref:2073729)

example of usage in excel http://www.rallycross.ie/grids.jpg

Template can take you 1 hour to do, just paste the data in and it automatically grids people...

pgrogan · 22 Nov 2007, 20:15 (Ref:2073734)

to be honest michael i havent a clue what ur trying to say there... and also i think you dont understand what we are saying... there is no need for fancy calculations for grids... its as easy to write them out... the difficult bit is trying to fit in people at 9.30 in the morning before the first heat at maybe 10.30. example would be if i was to be a late entry... well im in a super car and they are normally first out after practice so that would leave very little time to try and fit me into a grid and re publish them and distribute them etc etc etc

lads.. bottom line... no excuse for rallycross regulars sending in late entires.. i had my entry in for this weekend before the last event.. simple.. download.. fill in.. laser card... arrive and drive.. no hassle and no late entry penalties..

Cryos · 22 Nov 2007, 20:19 (Ref:2073738)

I do understand what your saying, however what im saying is that with a grid template setup you can add people to the spreadsheet and it will calculate grids automatically.

I do get that there isnt really an excuse for late entry, but i do think that the late entry dates do need to be closer to the event. I mean like we are in the 21st century, more use of technology can reduce problems and Save time.

The electronic entry system was a welcome introduction, the CCTV system clarified alot in terms of accidents and incidents.

Look how well the electronic timing works.

The Fiddler · 22 Nov 2007, 20:23 (Ref:2073743)

whose michael
