Checkpoint Challenges

Every geocacher knows how to follow a GoTo, so we've tossed in an extra challenge; Find a waypoint without entering it into the GPSr.

It's easy: refer to the sheet provided by the Checkpoint workers, and then follow the location display on your screen moving in a straight line, or an ever-growing spiral, until the Lon/Lat numbers match and then, Viola!

Oh, did we forget to mention there's a time limit?

Course Challenges

We all know how to follow the speed limit even if some of use have traffic tickets to prove we don't follow said speed limits, but have you ever been tested on it? Now you will be.

Along the route are timed Course Challenges, where you've got to maintain as close to an exact speed as possible. It'll be the Navigator's job to watch the Trip Computer, and the Driver's task to make every correct turn. This is no time to make a wrong turn as every second counts!
