“The course was great. There wasn’t any dust like last year. It did get a little rough towards the end but overall it was really good and we had a good time out here. Everything went smooth with no issues. We ran the same quad for the whole ten hours and had planned on swapping but the Outlander ran so well we didn’t need to,” said Kevin Trantham.
