I can almost guarantee that the leprechaun is living with Unio in the cave at the top of the mountain.

Dumb Newb question: So is does this include a night stage or is it just the day thing? We have a family event going that weekend and I might be able to sneak out for the day. Rip out the 2hr drive, race, and back again for dinner.

Double dippin'... but this sounds easier than dating two girls at once.

I'm with Bentmetal, wish there was a better lead time or notice. Looks like a killer spot too.

For the adventurist class, does it have to be scale? We have a couple guys with wraiths and ax10s that want to drive but don't want to go if they can't do it.

Wraith is a scaler. An ax10 slightly scaler. But you can take any axial vehicle to a recon g6 and i dont see parker turning anybody away.
