If you are unsure of how to
drive a course, there are numerous CTV

assist and ride with you. If you prefer,
you can even start off by riding with an
experienced
NCCC competitor in their car.
Thanks,
Doug McMahan & Donald Hickman

•
FRS Radios if you have
them
•
Sun Screen
•
Painters Tape / Contact Shelf Paper
- some people like to mask off the edge of
their wheel wells and rocker panels. They do
supposedly vacuum this facility but we have found
that sometimes gravel does exist. We will do
our best to layout the course to avoid as much as
possible.
•
Leaf Blower - these are
handy if we do have an area with gravel, it can be
blown off instead of having to sweep it off.
