Special Attention:
A New Feature this year (and free, this year) is the trial of a GPS Mapping system
that will track EACH SLED - much the same way they ID and show the speeds of the NASCAR cars.
Each participating sled (MOST of 'em) will carry a small GPS receiver/transponder that
will report the sled's location - for display on a course map.
