I don't know if the one I went to was not as good as some of the others, but the location was awful!! One lane to get there and there was a motorcycle convention right next to us, so traffic was terrible and we were stuck in it for hours. Then, as we started to run the course, there was no more water at any of the stations. They had run out!! Luckily we had paint left, but apparently my friends who came later, said there was no paint left around 10am! Huge disappointment..
