I had dinner with Mike this weekend after the DATC show and he has gotten me verry interested in hes new series. It looks like it should be fun. Im also excited about some of the new locations he is working on. We will go where are sponcers want us to and Mike knows this. All he seems to ask for is to give his series a try. Jake and I plan on running itleast 1 or 2 of his comps this year due to the fact that he is trying his hardest to not secdual his events so that they conflict with any of the other series. Next year is going to be a fun year for all us competitors no matter what circut we are running.

"Crash" on another computor.
Mike now you know it wasn't me who let the cat out of the bag. Now that it's out....
SPILL all of the details! Are you going to try to keep it slow? Will the cones be used just to mark boundries or will they be the obstacle. If they are really close and are used as the obstacle then I fear it will be like the "ROCS". But let me know I'll help where I can.
These trail type of comps open up areas that would not work for the big"ROCS" type of arena.
Sam you've been there (Rock Race) and of course Josh and Paul know first hand of what it's all about.
Everyone I know that has been to this type of comp. loves it. It's more about driving and less about spotting and judges. And the spotter gets to sit back and enjoy the comfortable ride :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: . If you've never seen this you really need to check out one before you judge it.
No it's not for everyone. It is rough on your rig. You don't need an $80,000
moon buggy but you do need a tough rig and the balls to drive it. I'm willing to admit this form of "Crawling" :rofl: is for those of us who aren't quite right.
But atleast it's not boring. Spit it out Mike, Whaz up?
PS if you like to see people like Shannon Campbell, Chris Durham, and Joe Brown drive then you'll love these events. Mike Palmer and the rest of us are sitting here waiting on the other leadfoots to show up.
