Remember, however...YOU are the ones who choose the roads to take to get to the checkpoint.
I prefer not to take my car off-road, so these check points your able to get to them from pavent too?

This rally is on paved roads. If you somehow wind up on dirt you're way, way lost...

All of the checkpoints are located on PAVED road surface. I hand you maps at the beginning, and tell you what road they're on, and which direction to come through the checkpoint. It's ALL UP TO YOU to decide what roads (fields, pastures, creeks, etc.) YOU want to take to get there. Most people feel they make the best choice by staying on paved roads, as they don't want the hassle of getting stuck somewhere.

Technically speaking this is open to all motor vehicles which are licensed for operation on public roads.

Count me in!

Though, the 25th will be a bit more reasonable for my schedule. But I think I'll be able to squeeze in on the 18th if need be.
