I am pretty sure that course setup and whatever other crap goes on will keep me busy during morning registration, so if anybody wants to pitch in and give Nick (and possibly Carrie) a hand there, I'd really appreciate it!
Yes, I would love it if someone would like to volunteer to help me out.

Don't sweat it. I regularly had the slowest time of the day when I was starting out, as has everyone else I'm sure.

Don't worry, I'll be there next season to make you look better. Gotta resurrect my 18 year-old cone skills. Killer Pintos for life...

Course is set! There are two distinct sides of the course... Finesse and Fast.... Should be a blast.

The course can be negotiated in the bus with the trailer on, so there should be no first gear even for Mike.

Due to the weather this afternoon and evening, we may have to reset/remark/rechalk some to all of the course in the AM, so any help would be appreciated starting after 7:00AM.

See you there.

I would love to help. Has an event ever been canceled because of weather? Rain autox cross sounds like fun even if the forcasters say its done.
