Default Handling course

Do the competitors get to walk or test drive the course prior to an actual timed run?

I believe its like TOTB, where each competitor gets a sighting lap before their first timed run.

At least if I can walk the course I could claim a prize for completing it the fastest

as above, prob 40 secs in length max, and your first drive will be untimed, returning immediately to the start line to take your first timed run. subsequent runs will then be from the back of the queue.

track layout will be a mix of tight stuff and some fast bends, and wont be the same as this years totb layout.

no objections in principle to drivers walking course, altho drivers will have to be on site, signed on and noise tested and have attended the driver briefing all before 10.30am racing start time, so you'll have to be on the ball if you want to do that.
