Default Just signed up for the 2016 Tennessee Knockout Enduro

The amateur race doesn't look too bad, but the Sunday race looks really hairy (should I qualify).

Has anyone competed in this event before? Anyone going next year?

180 amateur spots sold out in less than eight hours! Jesse Warner (McNut82's son) has qualified to move to Sunday's shenanigans a couple times. Even Saturday's action was enough to have him throwing up in his helmet.

So...you have at least watched video of this event? I've been down there twice for it, but only as a spectator. I got skeered just hiking back to the hero sections

Default Going to get even harder!

Lucky for those that are signing up, Geoff Aaron has been signed by Red Bull to advise and help set up the course this year. They want to make it a little tougher i guess...

...3 times. Threw up in his helmet, that is.

One of my last rides on our '11 250 Gasser before she gave up her ghost was at TKO in 2014. I finished one lap on the Saturday course. By the time I crossed the finish line, the flagman had punched out.
