4. At the South mountain peak, you will make a right turn around the peak staying below the 3500 ft alt restriction. Head to the Port
5. at the port, make a right turn between the water and radar tower, then a left 180 turn around the radar tower and fly back between the water/radar tower. These are also gate turns

7. at the town, once again all turns are gates. Make a left turn past the water tower, right turn around the Tank radar tower and finally a left past the north radar tower and head to A11
8. At A11 you have 2 options:
9. Option 1, Fly between the Water Tower and Radar tower then continue on to the northern mountain peaks
10. Or Option 2, fly inverted through the FH then make a left J hook turn and fly inverted through the Grass strip BH. This would be the end of your lap. Repeat 2 through 9. You may NOT use the shortcut again if you completed it successfully. SEE NOTES ON OPTION B
11. For those taking option 1, make a right turn around the north mountain peaks staying below 5300 ft alt restriction.
12. after going around the peaks, head back to A11 and fly through the Grass Strip BH. This the end of the lap. Repeat 2 through 12.
Short cut notes:
You may only use the Shortcut once during the race if you are able to complete it successfully. Unsuccessful attempts will allow you to try it again. You must announce to the CM/Marshall prior to making your attempt so that we can verify your success. For the Shortcut to be considered successful you must complete both hangars inverted. Between the hangars and during your turn, you may go back upright to make the turn and line up. Should you decide to abort your attempt, simply fly to the northern mountain peaks and continue on. An aborted attempt does not count and you may attempt again.
