Last week there was a discussion on course design going on and I was confused as to what a 'gated' course was. Is a gated course just one that doesn't have chalk marks to help guide you? Anyone who w

A gated course is one that's defined by a series of gates (or gates and boxes), similar to a downhill slalom course in skiing. As opposed to a course completely outlined with cones (aka a minature ro

I love it. Throw me everything you've got. The more elements that make you think about what you have to do differently, the better. While I don't particularly like "gimmicky" kind of stuff, I do like

Part of course walking is to be sure about areas you can't readily see from the driver's seat. You need to know in advance that the maneuver exists before you get there and that's part of looking ahe

IMHO. Unfortunately, I don't have a rule book handy right now, but I seem to recall a paragraph in there which says this isn't so. Either way, IMO, this is the fastest way to discourage new drivers -

Agreed. I'm looking at the question from a "being competitive" mode. The course does need to be clearly defined so that it is obvious where to go to stay on course. Especially at the beginning of the

Nice to see somebody in the same camp as yours truly, though I accept that there may be no "right" answer here, only opinion. Somewhere in the rule book it says something to the effect that course n

Small point, but I would suggest less cones be used on the inside of turns and more cones be used on the outside. What I have seen is someone lays down a course by tossing cones out of the back of a
