Registration for 24 June opens up on 02 May. First come, first serve. We must get the 9am appointment. I can not register or lock in the entire Rally, I tried and a hard "NO".
Each car is responsible for registering their car.
This Registration will give us a 2 hour block up to the top and back down.
If you don't Register, you can only get to Devil's Cove (3/4 way up), and first in line after Registered guests.
$15 PER PERSON in your car.
$2 military discount per veteran (Hopefully they do for the entire car). No other discounts i.e. Police, First Responders or Firefighters (Sorry).
If you have 4 or more people in your car (not likely lol), then you get a group discount.
Plan is to stage 1 hour early to get first in line and not have a Coloradan Subaru in front of us at an average speed of 10mph.
