We have 5 deposits, so that is a great start! We can still take some alternates...

All participant driver's should have an update in their email box. We're <3 weeks away from training!

Jeff, I’ll be party of one at dinner as well.
For anyone reading this, sounds like Jackson and I both have open seats in our trucks that wed be happy to fill and split costs (yes you can get seat time in my 80) For any members that are free this weekend, this is a unique opportunity and you should jump in with us!

Last Saturday went to Bill Moore Lake. On the way back found an ATV off the side of the trail just like Ken's experience, trees in the way and ready to roll over. Another truck was trying to use ratchet straps to pull them out, but the straps did not last long. I hooked up a strap to him and was able to slowly pull him out. My first recovery. Was nice to have Bill's training the week before. Also glad the strap no longer looks brand new, hate looking like a newbe.

Had a great trip with everyone going around with Bill the weekend before. Hope to do it again soon.

Great job Sean! It was a pleasure having you on the Bill Burke training / trip. You distinguished yourself in the coursework and it obviously translated to the field on your own. We look forward to seeing you on the trial soon.
