John,
I don't think you can effectively control this situation. There are many
classes where a car can be legally entered. For example I can run my BS
car in ASP, SM2, OSP, EM or ST (street tires). I'm guilty of running
outside of my regular class for the first 3 Slush events. But that was
the only way for me to participate in those events.
Maybe we should reevaluate going back to 4/2 run group schedule for the
Slush to resolve workers situation. Fun runs would be an added benefit
for running in the afternoon.
Boris.

Wrong Run Groups. This situation is screwing up our event operations.
For
many, many events, we have seen the first run group over run with
entries
and then the afternoon groups have a worker shortage.
This is especially intriguing during the last two events, for
example. The last run group at our previous event was pretty small and
this
group ran first this past Sunday and was quite full. The purpose of run
groups is to even out things so every group has a similar number of
entrants throughout the day. It isn't working.
Now most event chairs are more than willing to take care of some
individual's time situation. But if this keeps up we may have to not
allow
you to run if your class isn't the one listed for the group on the grid.
Everybody's cooperation is needed to make our events an ongoing
pleasure.
