I need to ask... "Check points"... is that so if you don't make it, they may come look for you (or at least call you) or is there a specific route that you must take? Although, looking at some of your photos, there is only one road to take, LOL
there is a specific route to take. have to take a picture at each checkpoint to prove you didn't just get on the highway and go to the next track. its really more for the racers.
