As the Course Capn...

I believe its only fair to the local club to have the next 4 (or how ever many we have left up there) courses be the National Courses that we ran and they are already in place..

They are already marked and we can run both events in both directions! :rockon:

I already plan on the day one champ tour course to be the July 22nd course for that event.
Edit: Day 2 it is, just for you Steve......

I am 100% down for either Tour course next event. Sunday Tour would be a slight preference, since I kinda ran out of steam for that one.

I'm missing the August event. :(

I'm definitely in favor. Can't speak for the CT, but the MT course was one of my all-time favs

Can't do it on the Sunday course in that section. The MPH gain actually hurts you because you lose the ability to catch with the throttle in 3rd. We were on limiter in the very first 3 cone element all the way out to the first "S".

We could shift through there in the match tour for whatever reason.

But anyway, I do want to run that course again to see how fast I can go getting into that slalom and figure out when to shift in the slalom.

If you ran the national events you have an advantage over your competitors. I loved the courses but don't think it's fair for those that weren't there. We could do the MT course backwards since nobody ran it that direction.

I want to do all the courses again. They were the best tracks we’ve had there ever.

I agree, they need to be tweaked enough that its not the same course. Same overall path, sure. The lot isn't big enough to go hog wild in, but i am strongly opposed to giving local points advantage to those that decided to go to the national events even if its minor.
