"The sand course, hills and swamps were quite special. Will I be back......you bet, not going to miss a single Turbo X race now!" - Runner's World Forum 19th May 08

"Brilliant race. Better than Hellrunner. Best course marking I have ever come across. Was on my own for a while and never had a doubt I was on the right path. Excellent goody bag - technical t-shirt in all sizes… Loved the winding paths through the woods... Lovely friendly atmosphere. Can't wait for the next one." - Runner's World Forum 19th May 08

"Best race I’ve done this year... fun and really filthy" - Runner's World Forum 20th May 08
