Finish Location

Choosing a Finish Location

A good finish location will have many of the following characteristics:

• Place orders at the counter – so each person or group of people can order and pay separately
• Various types of food – because not everyone wants the same thing (not even pizza)
• Open late – to allow at least an hour after the finish closes for protests, announcements, awards, and discussion
• Good lighting – so people can read the critique
• Plenty of room – so everyone gets a seat (including normal non-rallyist customers, if we don't have a room/area reserved)
• Near the rallye's end – because no one likes long final traverses to the finish
