wow that's a long wait. I've noticed some clubs do it all wrong. PCA and another CLub here have you do your laps within a couple of minutes of each other by Car Class. Once you finish the lap you immeidately grid up directly behind the start line. No driving off back to the paddock parking lot. That's really inefficient.

And then you work the course, get back in the car and do the 2nd half of the timed runs. 10 runs and then we 3-5 free runs that don't count but are timed.
I noticed SCCA take about twice as long to give you barely half that.
But SCCA around here is not really a learning event as much as its a very intense competition. During regional or Nationals you are limited to three laps to come up with your fastest time. Not really time effective for beginners
