When you say ramp you mean jump or is this a rail jam. if it is a jump it Sounds like a great way to get hurt before the season starts, eh? maybe i am wrong.

So according to Elan, Drew at Viking said im in, but he has yet to reply to my emails and I haven't actually heard this from him.
Does anyone actually understand the invitation process and not something they have read?
I'm assuming the form is something everyone fills out, but to actually be in you need to have one the of the events sponsors back you up and they say that you're with them.
