tbh half an hour wouldn't do much in the scheme of things for me maybe 6hrs earlier LOL but ya doing a normal race if I don't have day off means im awake for similar time to normal race of 20+ hrs awake at start of it. just being a 90 minute race means its a biggun so all is cool Ill just get replay off Hawks & watch it that night  |

Honestly I think starting 30 min early is going to cause more harm than good at this point. I know I for one have an all day meeting and will be pushing to get home, grab some quick dinner, then be on by 7.
We will need to start right on time. If so we should be done just after 9 PDT (midnight eastern).

Any chance it could be started a half hour early, Jason? It might help guys like Smokey. Hell, it might help me, at that rate it won't be over 'til way after midnight. I vote yes too. Always late here in NY for me this one will be WAY late too |

A large majority of our guys are west coasters, they can't get on much earlier then 7:30 Pm Pacific. That is why we run everything off of Pacific time here.
That, and the core group that started this thing was mostly west coast guys. I'm lucky being in Central time as it's not to early and it's not to late.

Guess I better start practicing tonight seeing as we are only 2 days away.
Dan I'm central also, where are you at? The GBR start times actually work out better for me normally during the week.

I am in the DFW area in Texas, Dan is south of me near ft. hood I believe, so between DFW and Austin DFW = Dallas/Ft.Worth for those who don't know. AKA The Metroplex! |

That, and the core group that started this thing was mostly west coast guys. I'm lucky being in Central time as it's not to early and it's not to late. Even 7:30pm PST has become increasingly difficult for me, hence why I miss the majority of GBR weekday events. I do not say that with the hope that the stewards change the times, as I don't want our east coast brothers to have to stay up any later than necessary. |

What he said, I'm in Copperas Cove, just west of Ft.Hood. AKA The Centroplex! Not making it up, that's what the area is called. It's a stretch along US190 west of IH35 that has Copperas Cove, Ft.Hood, Killeen, Nolanville and Harker Heights all so close together you don't know when you leave one and enter the other. About 45 minutes Northwest of Austin. Pretty much smack dab in the middle of the state. |
