atco=teh suckage
last night wtf! in the staging lanes @ 7:30 finally pulled our lane @ 9:45.  1friggin pass and had to head for the hour and half ride home. i was hoping to get a rain check but nobody was in the booth when we left. never seen atco like that before. i really feel ripped off. 35 bucks to get in to wait over 2 hours for a run!! it was worse then e-town ever was and e-town blows. /rant

that sucks man, never heard anythign like that about atco. I know Etown and Maple Grove operate like that, anymore i just do track rentals alot, for me time/money wise it just makes sense.

Atco really sucks lately. We got to the gates at 5:00 one night and only got one pass in. It was BS.

Hey Bad, I was there last night same thing got there late at 730 and only got 2 passes and the one at 1030 was a waste.....the dew was coming in bad and the track started to go away.....even for my 12 sec. car. I can imagine it would have been hairy for you fast guys. I did see your car in the slick tire lane when I was walking up and down and thought I recognized you. I was gonna come up to ya and say hello but your lane was finally moving. Yea last night did suck but there were alot of fast cars running so it was cool to watch for a change, but definitley not worth it to pay 35$ fof 1 run. It's a shame that those nights still happen down there.

That's really odd for Atco. Were people breaking or were they just THAT busy?

you have no idea how much I hate those cars. One night earlier this summer a buddy of mine and I kept betting what ones were gonna blow up and what ones were not. I got so good at calling what ones would, I would also have to say where they would. If they could figure out how to drive a stick shift they would have half a chance, but none of them know how to, its that 4 second pause between gear changes that they usually **** up in.
