Drove up to Hawksnest with Scoot Saturday. It started snowing just past Rutherfordton on our way up 221. Conditions were nice, about 3-5" of new snow covering hard pack and ice. I was racing Saturday and Top Gun was the run the course was set on. It was a tough Slalom course and by the end of the race the ruts were exposing grass on Top Gun. It was a fun day and I even won my flight in Division 1!



The day ended with me getting a speeding ticket in Rutherfordton. Lets just say I was going fast enough to get a mandatory court appearance....Hey Ski Cop help a brother out here.

There shoud be a number to th court magistrate near th bottom or on the back of the ticket. Give them a call and see what you can work out. If you live far enough away, they should help you out by waiving the mandatory court appearance.
