    It sucks trying to determine when gates will open/close for any track.
    That should post with the schedule, IMHO.
    I want to race this weekend at Barber, but have no idea when I can arrive to do so.
    When you post race schedules, post gate times for the track.
    Novices such as myself don't know S@it, except this should be done better.

    Have you tried contacting the track for that information?

    Almost every time a racing organization has sent out a gate open/close time, the track ends up having different plans in my experience. Calling the track yourself is your best bet.

    I think the gate is 24/7 at Barber? Its the credentials (wrist band) you need to worry about getting on time....
    Tally still locks the gates at 10pm?

    I know it came off as whining, but I'm trying to make a last minute plan to get there, and couldn't get info.
    The reply I got this morning says credentials opens at 4pm, and paddock opens at 5:30-6:00pm.
    When does credentials close was my next question, awaiting reply.

    Given each event it can vary even at the same track and a lot of the time it even varies the day of, finding information on it is as easy as emailing me at wera@wera.com
