an unprecedented move, course designer Phil Collard took drivers and spotters
on a guided tour of the course in advance of the competition. Here Phil

on traction, in contrast to the abrasive surfaces characteristic of popular
competition sites in the western United States. Photo by Trudy Strawn. |
