I can live with late starting races, but when the tracks start moving up the post times I get mad. There is nothing worse than having a horse you like in a race and logging on to Twinspires to check the odds at what you thought was 5 MTP and finding out the race was run 20 minutes ago. This one the reasons I have stopped even looking at the PPs for NYRA races. I am not going to sit through 6 races that I don't want to bet just to make sure a horse I like is going off at odds I like.
