What if I told you that the course for this event was going to kick ass? How do I know that? Because Steve Frank designed it, that's how!

^^^ Back in the day, an across-the-street neighbor I didn't know had one of those - brand new. I was as envious as the day was long... and not just 'cuz I drove a Gremlin at the time.

Apparently there will be a dirt jump at some point before the finish!! That's why I'm bringing the RX8 this time with no front bump stops left. The WRX gang will be in their element until I figure out where to pass them.

As long as y'all promise to not get all discombobulated and show up at the Enduro with THIS course map... I guess I could post it early.

Idunno. Can you be trusted with such information?

The real proof comes with driving it. But, if you're good at reading a course map, you can see the awesome right here.

Be sure everybody gets registered. This event is likely to sell out, especially if you're bringing a bunch of friends! We're at 50% for both sessions already.

Except the third cone is usually placed to make it harder than if it was a straight slalom. Not that anyone cares.
