Spectators for RTTH

[SicMonte]

I had a great experience at this years event. It was my first time seeing autocross in person. Yes, I was a spectator. I personally have never met any of the drivers, Bill, or Jeff. I was with a buddy who is into imports and after his experience at RTTH he has changed his views on what is cool. The minute we got back to the rod run he was looking at classic american muscle cars to buy and build. This is a prime example of how great this lifestyle/community is. We did not personally know anyone and the impact it made on my buddy will last a lifetime. He will be depoying for 6 months to the desert in 2 weeks and this was kind of my send off to him. I cannot thank Bill and the rest of the organizers for putting this event on and letting us spectate even though we did not ask We stood about 5 feet back from the computer(displaying times)in amazement of what your cars can do and no one was rude to us or kicked us out. Thanks Again.

Im glad that we could provide some entertainment for your buddy who is about to deploy! Its good to know that we opened his eyes to our world!!

Hey Everyone~
I am so sorry for the people who drove out, only to be turned away. As you know, this was the first year at Splash Country. When we arrived, the property owners would not allow spectators, due to insurance and liability reasons. We weren't allowed to let anyone in. Nothing was posted on the site, but that is because everyone involved with ASCS was at the track all weekend. (Those who participated can attest to that fact.) We will resolve this by next year, and everyone who is admitted (participants and/or spectators) must be on a list prior to the event. Again, my apologies to those tho were effected. :(
