a question just came to mind. what kind of lodgings are availiable up there? i.e. hotels and such. just wondering... was pricing rental cars earlier, looks like 500 will get me an suv for a week with unlimited mielage.. not a bad deal considering they dont know it would be seeing like 5000 miles in 4 days.. haha..

I think everyone knows they need to be WATERPROOF for a national scale comp. The 2.2 pro comp will have 3 100% doable courses and a finals course. Tim has assured me that they will be tough but 100% doable. The 1.9 scale comp will be friday all day, 4 shorter courses and a finals course for the top 5. The 2.2 scale comp will be all day saturday, 4 shorter courses and a finals course for the top 5. The 2.2 pro comp will be 3 courses and a finals course for the top 5 on sunday. on a side note, if the weather agrees with us in 09, we will use the private ground that we wanted to last year. That means we will be up there a few weeks in advance and we have been graciously donated some heavy equipment so that we can actually dig and excavate our own scale courses.

Sooo, why don't you guys tell me what you want to see this year. Who likes water? How about mud? Rocks? Sand? The main thing that I want to do this year is make sure that the courses physically hold up to 40 trucks over the course of a day. I don't want the first guys to have an advantage over the last ones. We will also have separate courses for 2.2 and 1.9. This will help keep the courses from getting so torn up, and will allow the 2.2 courses to be more difficult. I plan to have 2 or 3 different lines per gate....maybe one with water, another line that will require a winch, etc. I want people to have to think and choose the best line for their own rig. The courses will be larger than last year, but not necessarily longer. I'd like to keep them to 6-8 gates with 8 minute time limits. I like to throw in at least one gate that you HAVE to winch through, or risk a large penalty, because I believe that all scale trucks should have a winch.....any thoughts on that? I like to have a muddy climb as well. Ben, do you have any clay dirt around Helena or should I bring some from Oregon ? I want this comp to be something that you tell all your friends about back home. I want you to tell them that it was the best scale comp EVER, and that the courses were the best scale courses that you've EVER seen. Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks,Tim. |

im retarded and cant seem to function a 3ch winch. i probably will not have figured it out anyways, i just never need to use a winch. other than that i prefer muddy rocks and sand is just boring IMO.
