We had an amazing day - great show ROAV!
Only regret: not camping and staying. We'll be there for the long haul next year.

Nick,

After our trail run Saturday afternoon, I started out solo on trail 3 and came across Walter in his stock LR2 stuck in the mud by himself. To access his front recovery point, we had to winch him backwards using a snatchblock attached to a tree behind him . A crowd gathered before the recovery was complete.

As for feedback, my only issue was that I felt some of the trails were not well marked - Like Airy Hill Farm and Sparta Rd trail, where some of the trails "T'd" together, and the intersection of Rally Control (FWD) and Airy Hill Farm Rd. I had to keep pulling out the map to reference it.

I's also like a slightly larger map that showed Rally Control and the roads around the venue. It was hard to gauge where entrances were in relation to the main site.

All in all, not big issues, but just wanted to mention it.

Thanks for a great show!

decent event and i think theres a ton of potential here.
all in all not bad-drove 4 down and only 3 back-guess that means it was good and bad.

good to see everyone and looking forward to next year already!

JohnK - thanks again for being our trail guide!

We met Walter later at the scotch tasting (yet another regret about not staying and being the DD) - he recounted the recovery with a smile on his face. Glad to hear it ended well. I would love to have seen how it was executed.

Enjoy

Great job to all the volunteers and committees that made this event happen. Enjoyed the location, people, vehicles, and food. Thanks to Airy Hill Farm for the land and opportunity to wheel on their property.

PS - Team, lets keep the banter on this board PG rated. Relax on foul language.

Jude-
Just curious - what "foul language" are you referring to that warrants your direction? This thread reads like a Disney flick to me.
