It can get pretty crazy, between the elevation changes and such. you see a vast desert terrain rocks, SILT!, silt, silt, and some other less vicious dirt.
probably outta mention more silt....![]()
Don't forget the silt.
Make sure your chase crews DO NOT SPEED!! In 2004 when we did it, we got a flat on a chase truck (actually a few) and a highway patrolman stopped when we were changing it. He told us not to speed because the race led to the most traffic he gets all year. When we stopped to gas up the chase truck we ran into yet another patrolman and he told us the same thing.
You cannot chase on the course. BITD has tow vehicles on course (thanks Donald) to pull you to a pit so you can get back in the race.
