Team work, team work, team work
Please respect trail courtesy and give your fellow drivers some room before getting behind them attempting a obstacle, and in return if you have tired the same obstacle
more than 5 times Please allow the person behind you to attempt it. This will help keep the flow much smoother and fellow drivers can help out once they past a obstacle.
Kids of all ages are welcome, but please keep in mind this will be a rocky course and they need to be watched at all times.
