I live in Devon, which is only a few clicks from the track, and there is a loonie wash here.
theres likely one in leduc or nisku too, which are both quite close.

Should mention as well the car wash around the corner at deerfoot mall. If people want to come a bit early, they can get a good wash done.

anything with like a 15km+ range is good. Most guys have at least that or more and no one seems to have any issues.

Yeah, I'll wash mine in Beaumont, because from my house I'll take Hwy 13 to Hwy 814 to Beaumont, wash there, get on 625 and over 2 and be there.

OR! I could take 822 up to 616 and then go west to 814.... but there's more gravel. 822 is all gravel...

OH THE POSSIBILITIES!!!

Its an hour drive, just do it before you leave!

I doubt you'll get enough bug splats to warrant another washing when you get there.

On to other news, just bought a claybar kit for the first time, did a quick job on the hood to test it out, holy **** that stuff is awesome. Doing a full detail job tomorrow and then going to get my front windows tinted if they can fit me in.
