Freihofer’s Validation

A pre-race validation was done yesterday just before the race was run. Checking the course were Jim Gilmer, Bernie Conway, Mike Wickiser and Tom Riegel.

The four results all fell within 0.08 percent and the course passed its preval.

The group is shown below. I’ll stop here because Gilmer will be preparing his own report and I don’t want to steal his thunder.
