Complete fraud. STAY AWAY from anything Milemarker-1 organizes. Got there before 7AM. Did not have my first run until 10AM, my second run at 1:15PM. They have their headstart group, that runs before you 3-4 times. They have the "have to leave early" group they wave by to run 3-4 times. I came from Maryland, WHO THE FUDGE has to leave earlier than I???? No display, no electronic time taking, no printed slip, they TELL you your speed. I got nothing for my first run and 157MPH trap speed for my second when my GPS and speedo agreed on 175MPH. They told the same to the guy in front of me who had 20MPH more shown on his GPS.
No pen to write the numbers on the cars, no consessions for the drivers, no porta potee, 6 FUDGING hours on the tarmac at 100F drinking your own stale, warm water and nowhere to piss.
There is absoultely noway for anybody to run 4 times unless you are one of the cronies. I will e-mail them to refund me my money by Friday or I will open a fraud case with American Express. I will expose these MFs on every automotive board out there.
I am a bit mad. Going to SoBe now to cool off and get hammered.

There was no electronic time/speed measurement to speak off, I saw nothing, now ire across the road, no light sensor, nothing. No 1/4 mile times, no 60-130 time, nothing, just the trap speed TOLD. Don't how they measured it, I guess by the length of your shadow.

Sounds totally frustrating, especially after all the distance you covered.

Well, I did not drive the whole way. Had my family with me. So it is a 2 hour drive to the auto train in VA and then a 5 hour drive from Sanford, FL to Miami. So that is 14 hours drive total. Train plus hotel for four about $3,000 - having to buy my wifey now something nice after dinner in SoBe because she had to put up with me all pissy - Expensive!!!!
