Track management

[6601320fan]

We have been up there to the track several times, coming from Mobile. Last time it rained and the staff immediately turned off the pit area lights, and yesterday after an oil-down and the tractor to clean it up wouldn't start, the lights were immediately turned off again. Can you folks please give us 15 minutes to load up with the lights ON? Make an announcement that "the lights will be shut off in 15 minutes", but please help us out a little.
Also, when did they start allowing people to stand at the starting line, its rediculous and dangerous.

Thanks

Yes we can assist you with the lights. I was not aware that they had turned them off until I got a phone call because I was getting the paperwork ready to shut down however I did not have a radio on me so it took a few mins to get them turned back on. As a general rule the ET shack is told to turn them off when leaving their position and we had new person in there yesterday so he did what he thought he was supposed to do.
