If you at the Super 8 there will be plenty of us to cart you around.

Will we be allowed to use the pavilion itself? It'd be nice to have a picnic bench as a repair table.

I'd like to know as well.

EDIT: I'm just wondering, does anyone have tow hooks on their truck? I made a couple of tow straps, but they will be useless if there is nothing to hook them on.

Yes, you will be able to run Friday but NOT on the courses. There's plenty of terrain other than the courses on which to run.

Anyone caught running the courses will be DQ'd. I'll be at the lake all day Friday doing final prep so I'll be paying attention to what's going on.

There are 12 tables under the pavillion. Anyone is free to pit there. I may need a couple for tech and prizes...we'll see.

Wife and I went out today...shot a few pictures

Some shots of the 2nd hardest Comp course, 75 Degrees..

Start and gate 1


from gate 1 to gate 4


This shot doesn't look too bad at first...but look at the horizon.


So let's turn the image so that we get a proper perspective...looks much steeper now.


Another view...

Gates 4-5


Finish (there's another gate out of the picture on the left)

The hardest course...The Devil's Driveway.

The start of Devil's Driveway.


Up the gap at gate 3...


..then down


Then up through gate 4 and on to 5..


Gates 5-7


Gates 7-8


Didn't get a good shot of the finish...which, compared to the rest of the course, is a cake walk.

Courses look sweet and pretty intimidating in alot of spots. I was wondering about tires too. have you run the course with more that one style of tire. I've got Moabs and cut Swamp dawgs but wasn't sure which one would be betterfor me. Also, can we switch tires depending on the course we're running?
