I haven't heard for sure on this. I know from talking to some of the regular A-Class TREC guys that they are fine with giving up the TREC points to run for Ultra4 series points since this is a scheduled Ultra4 event. I am sure Kyle will address this asap.

Did we have to preregister and pay before the race, I don't recall from the last TREC race if we needed to or not.

It is light here until 10 or so. Most of the race will be in daylight.

Light until 10? Is the badlands on another planet i'm not aware of?

On a serious note..dusk/night is going to be a struggle for good video..."light" to the human eye and "light" to a video camera are unfortunately not equal

How long does the race last (or projected to last)?

Attica is near the edge of the eastern time zone so it stays light quite a bit later there than it does in the north east.

I felt I had plenty of lighting in 2010 but that same lighting didn't really cut in in 2011 with the dust and the race starting a bit later. The KOH race was also much later in the year (october) so this time of year its probably easily light to 9pm as Sean said.
You coming?

How easy is it to get around the park to points of interest? Right now I dont have any wheels other than whatever lame rental car I get, and need to cover this event for Hammerking.

I am trying to feel out how feasible it is for me to shoot this event single-camera and get something worthwhile out of it.

how many laps typical? projected time duration?

Any Nitto drivers running? (Dwest?)

No. I would have liked to come to watch but I have work that Sunday and I'm not racing anymore. The buggy is mostly untouched from last fall but I do have a plan in my head to rebuild it as a four seat family buggy. I hope to get started on that next week. Everyone have a great time racing!

You really shouldn't have any problems getting around the park. Kyle usually has guys running around during the race in a ranger/rhino and I'm sure you could hop in with them. If you want we will have an extra jeep sitting around during race time that you are more than welcome to use.

The campground at the park entrance was booked solid three weeks ago except for tent camping sites. They said they always have lots of tent camping available.
