Boy, we really need assigned pitboxes in LFS......
One thing to note, like bbman stated, it is wise to travel pitroad and pit in the farthest box so that others pitting behind you won't block you from exiting. Problem with this is on public servers, where the first garages are where normally the midjoiners blast out of without any respect to the fact that there may be someone pitting right there that is actually involved in the race.
