World Finals schedule
« on: August 26, 2017, 04:30:16 PM »
What is the typical format or schedule for World Finals?  I see the published dates are Oct. 3 thru 6 (Tuesday - Friday), which I assume are the race dates only.  But when does the salt open for setting up pits?  Sunday or Monday?  And when does Tech open?  Monday only?  I've searched for this info but have come up empty.  And yes, I know it's 50-50 on the weather.  Thanks....

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.
