We were in the tour stage, you would need too many mods. to get the van up to the standard needed for the timed events. The tour section does exactly the same stages without the major mods. Its also a bit cheaper. You do need to keep your own times as there is no classifications in this event. Talking to some of the others who have done both tour and competitive, they claim they were going just as fast and having more fun because it was less serious. If your not set up to be in the top 5 in each class, then this is the way to go, especially in a van.
