Just out of curiosity, is the venue completely plowed, with pylons set up like a slalom, or will the course be plowed out similar to the Magic Mountain events in years past?

I'm planning on taking a look at the lot on the weekend. I'll let you know after.

?
The area I negotiated for is unplowed.
It is quite tracked up but not plowed as there is not much snow in this area. Yet.

Are you coming Brian?

Sorry, I didn't mean to be confusing. I simply wanted to know if the lot to be used was already completely plowed, or not. Being a Nissan lot, I thought maybe that it was plowed already. And, if you don't ask, you don't know.

Thanks Mike for answering, and Ming for your efforts.

Mike, if things work out, I'll try to be there. It's on my weekend off, so that makes it easier for me.

People don't consider it important - maybe it isn't but the lot we are using is not part of the dealership. We really should not identify it as Rallye Nissan but it's too late to change that. It's like all you guys that were running at the Halifax Airport yesterday !

Our goal is to run snow-pack or Ice. Anything else is too hard on gear. It's really our traditional MMSC Ice Dice Autoslaloms and nothing like an event on the Back 40 or SSW.

Still, it's great fun!

Ok. I've never been to any of your winter events, however, from every picture I've seen of them, they look great!

We had about 10cm last night and we have compacted the snow in the area of the yard we have access to . Looks like we can prep a pretty nice snowpack course for tomorrow. Come on out and have some fun!
