So let me get this straight, they want me to pay money for a race where I have to navigate?! F@*! that! If I'm giving you that much money you better damn well mark the coarse! I rather do this: Trans Iowa. Oh, and look, it's FREE!!! Why? Because they know it's insane to charge people in a race they have to navigate! Plus, Mr. 24 aka Jeff Kerkove (If you don't know who this is, you best click here and educate yourself!) helped put this race together and still helps even in his pro racing days.

Gunch, I really miss you, man!

Yeah- Navigate... that's what they make the co-pilot seat for.
