I just went on Norwalk's website and they are claiming that they sold out in 2 minutes. Well then why were people getting the sold out screen at 12:00-30, 12:00-15 and 12:00 noon? Not to mention that I was in at 12:01-30!

Now isn't that just interesting! So now if it took "thyatt21" 3-4 minutes to fill out the forms and he (or she) got in then how did it sell out in 2 minutes or in my case 15 seconds?

By the way, GOOD LUCK "thyatt21"!

We had 2 computers with different I.P.adresses so when we pushed the button at 12:00:01 one computer got in and one did not.With 9000 hits and say 1000 at 12:00:01 only so many could get though no matter how big the main frame of the ticket place was. You are correct to say that Norwalk should just say there system was flawed or not big enough. I will give it a shot to make it to 32 or 16 cars, hopefully they like cars in the low 9's

I just read pro85fiero comment about my 3-4 minutes to get get in.Once we got are car and driver locked in 12:00:01 you had 6 minutes to fill out your information and they had you on a clock that was counting down faster than you wanted it to,but you had to be one of lucky ones to get that far.

You are absolutely correct! If there was a ligit problem they should just come clean, not B.S. us. We are not idiots!

I was done and ready to check out at 12:01-30 well under the 6 minutes. And it still doesn't explain, me not getting in and "thyatt21" getting in when Summit/Norwalk's website states that it sold out in 2 minutes.

Probably buddies of the track got in or some threw some cash in advance(palm greasers) to right person in the know. Sometimes it's who you know. People do crazy stuff to get a shot at TV. Who knows.

With the amount of whining you've done here I'm glad we won't have to see you on TV.

Good luck to the entrants.
Boohoo to the others.

To the "Abnormal LOOSER": This is NOT WHINING, this is EYE OPENING! So go back to sleep and dream about being an Indy car racer while the rest of us REAL RACERS try to keep the sport of drag racing FAIR and on the up and up.

By the way, I always do see a lot of Indy racers WHINE AND CRY ALOT!

Hell yeah Cerino! These guys are already sore loser's and they arent even at the track yet! If they whine this much then they can keep their a**es at home and suck on a baby bottle!!!
