my race was some what of a disaster. i totally farked up my start (I was in the front) and never recovered. I made some poor decisions shortly after start that didnt help either.
I finished 27th out of 61. After my last few races I was really aiming for a top 10 today.

What was the course like?

pretty standard course i guess. mainly grass with lots of off camber turns, a big rideable sand pit with two turns in it, a spiral of doom, barrier run up, and a weird sharp turn on a downhill that most people had to run down and then back up.
if you search youtube for wissahickon there is a video of last years race
