    So, is this road asphalt or gravel? The video clearly show gravel hence my question.

    If it is asphalt or another other paved surface, I think SDDOT needs to think about how much sand they are dropping on roads.

    PM me for:
    Sandblasting(I use glass beads)
    Diesel repairs or performance products.

            You are correct, this road should be a blast and again I want to stress that we will be sweeping every corner before the event. There will be no gravel/sand in sight!

                  true, but you have to drive all the way across south dakota and have to be there a day early it would just be cheaper to go to bir then to this event. that's my .02

                    What he said!

                    Yes it would be a totally different thing. But, its a public road that we can go drive on for free when ever we want.

                      You are right it is a public road. I you attempted to drive this road while it's open to the public like you would at this event you would likely hurt someone and/or end up with a big ticket. This is a legal event with proper insurance, hence the entrance fee.

                        Just got to ask, what does that insurance even do??

                        I think we all know what can happen when you are screwing around on public roads when they are fully open to public.

                          the terrain down there is totally unique to anything over east. Most on here don't have a clue what it is like, and the video doesn't do justice

                          I have been to BIR and in the hills........ and i know which place i would have more fun on if you could do whatever you wanted balls to the walls

                          hopefully avoiding the trees, haha

                              I cant watch the video (govt bock). is it just curvy? or that mixed with hills, trees and cliffs.

                              i remember driving on the penna turnpike and that was a blast, if this compares i would go if i could.

                                Drag racing vs road/rally racing

                                How can you compare the two? it's worth the money for the trip just to go down and see the area if you haven't.

                                    agreed, i havent been on this particular road, but having driven through the black hills, i must say that it is fucking awesome. BIR is boring as fuck, no elevation changes, no blind corners. I had a blast driving my envoy up/down there in 2nd gear at 4500rpm, i would like to go watch if anyone is going and im not working.
                                    If youve watched tokyo drift, that pretty much sums it up
