From what most have said this race is the shit, chairlifts back to the top and all. $242 Canadian for the full package (racing, food and camping), $50 if you just want the freeride day!

I might go to this, would anyone be down to carpool? We could even drive my car (only if I get a different one before then).

Don't forget you'll probably need a passport, and unless you are 18 by then that may be an issue at the border too.

Since I live in Washington I can get an EDL (enhanced drivers license), it allows me to cross only the Canada border.. which is all I need; and it will only cost me as much as renewing my license!

Does it have a GPS chip in it so they can find you at all times?

They stick a giant honing beacon up your anus, definitely not looking forward to that part.

i'm seriously contemplating dropping the $120 on this, it sounds dope. i need a job, damnit.

Same. I've been looking for a job

you guys, too huh?
ouch.
