Seriously. Organizers generally don't seem to think that rail jams can have large cash purses because it's "just" rails. Bullshit.

You got to find a website that has the atomic clock for Killington, VT or a place that is close to Killington. Base your time on that clock when you register, not the time on your computer. A difference of 5 seconds can be the reason for you getting in or not.

Yep. I think that contest is really fun so I'll run that again. I won't post in for another week or so since R2R is still a month away.

No, this has nothing to do with selecting the R2R winners. It's just a fun contest for newschoolers where people guess who will win. Whoever guesses correct, wins lift tickets!
