That’s one thing I’m going to address next year. The numbers were basically just so they knew who paid/teched in. They didn’t have enough people working to have someone sit in the tower and put the numbers into the system. If anyone has any other comments on yesterday let me know. Been doing it for a few years and I think it gets better every year but with it getting bigger I’m sure there are issues I’m not seeing. ---

Been doing it for a few years and I think it gets better every year but with it getting bigger I’m sure there are issues I’m not seeing. only thing that was a problem in my eyes was the timeslip issue. i love coming to this, definitely worth the extra $$. its great doing a pass, and going right again if you want. i did 3 passes in a matter of 10 minutes at one point :lol: was great meeting u again, count me in already for next year :tup: ---

> [@psphinx81](#): > > yup s-techs currently 😕 > > 2-step is at 6100 That’s what it is… my 2 step is 5500 and probably still too high. When I don’t sit on the 2step I can cut a low 1.5x but this then throws me off on my 1-2 shift for whatever reason. I just never adjusted it lower yet. Anyhigher than 5500 is what causes the same exact issues you have. ---
