The main route is laid out left to right, and has two numbered sections, starting in the bottom left corner, with many natural and man made obstacles to drive on and over.
There are multiple sub routes, so obstacles can be sessioned. The driving surface is a mix of sand/mud, rocks and wood work.
Lap times are as long as you make them, no decoder required. Just be careful where you step as the ground can be slippery and is off camber.
