If there is a situation like too many red flags or a spill cleanup then there is less track time. Stuff like this happens and it's part of the game.
Yesterday we did not get out until after 9:30 and we ended at 4:30, so it was not a really "full" track day "per the TPM manual". Luckily during the day there were relatively few track incidents so riders got as much as possible from the reduced track time.

I would have been more acceptant of the twilight group if people who paid for Full track days back in the springtime were somehow accomodated with maybe a reduced fee twilight session fee or a partial refund from what we paid back in February/March. If this was the situation since the beginning of the year, I may have opted to skip these dates as I do all of the 4 group and car days. Changing it up the format after allowing people to sign up is a bit weak.
Planning to run two separate track events on the same day on the same track is causing an issue in my not so humble anymore opinion. Paying $305 to ride the track day and the twilight is just excessive.
I am sorry to hear the twillight guys sessions were cut short because of the red flags. That sucks too.
