Another beautiful day, off to Dollywood Splash Mountain’s wonderful parking lot, and another awesome Mr. Rick course. Today’s theme: SPEED. Many long runs, a great uphill straight (70+!), and some boxes to put the brakes on here and there. We were setup quickly (thank you volunteers!), had 23 drivers (Cha-Ching!!), and were able to herd these cats into 6 runs each.
Good Laps were about mid-50 seconds, and the FTOD went to (big surprise) Bryan at 52.322. Mr. Second Place is ordering new tires… We wrapped it up by 2:30 and headed home, and some for a good meal.
Thanks to all that came, and remember, this is what they are built for!
