Nothing really. Probably just check-in and people looking over the courses.

Pretty much right Keith. Setting up pit, prepping car, walking course (s) getting an overall feel for what's going on. :D

You don't walk the course you drive through before it starts.

Kevin and I walked it and everybody looked at us like we were crazy. :D

Yah, then you whupped their hineys. See if they can connect the dots... :-)

I don't see how they'll be able to mitigate the huge "home course" advantage the WDCR guys are gonna have, though, since their course basically fixed...

I will probably still walk it. The drive through from how Kevin explained does not do a lot of good because you are in a line. When you walk the course you can look at slight changes in height and where the car should be coming into a turn by standing in the middle of the turn and looking at your entry and exit points. So yea if there is time I will be out walking the course.

Kevin and I walked it the one time I went also. Even though it was just one walk, I got more from that than I did the drive through. I'll walk it again at this one. :D
