agree JJs plan looks like a nice set up. I like the main course being in good view of any spectators. you can always tweak things later on site. this should be a cool event.

i assume the last 2000' section of the green is open manjii madness? honestly if the runway is 100' wide there's enough room for all sorts of possibilities out there. the questions is, will emergency planes still be coming in on this day? if so we can't really set cones up on the main runway.

Emergency only flights and we will have at least a 10 minute warning. Cones will be ok. I want to use every square foot of this place. I want the planes landing the next day to see the tire marks and say WTF went on here.

If you need someone to come test some course layouts you know I'm only 30 minutes away!

Looking great so far. JJ's layout looks to have it all covered.

I don't think it's a pro-am or anything like that, so I would think standard safety rules apply.

they should do the tech the same as they did at ProAM. much more serious and safe.

It took them all day to tech at pro-am for 40ish drivers. Add 10 more and it's a bit too much. Standard tech is fine as long as it's enforced.
