November 23, 2014

Here’s another experiment for 2014 season – almost EVERYBODY gets a chance to race with only their own category. No 2nd field starting 60 seconds behind or in front of you – just you and your peers hopefully slogging through a wet Candlestick (no guarantees on weather). Day 1 has 9 separate fields, Day 2 has 6 races. Here’s your tune-up for Districts, just 3 weeks away/
