This Showcase Event, set in the Summer season, is a 5.0 mi (8.0 km) long Cross Country route, represented by the icon of the front of a [[D79-TC Pelican]].

The event's starting point is located on the Bamburgh Castle Beach, north of the Bamburgh Castle and immediately to the left to the Bamburgh Beach Drag Strip. | This Showcase Event, set in the Summer season, is a 5.0 mi (8.0 km) long Cross Country route, represented by the icon of the front of a [[D79-TC Pelican]].

''John then turns around to see a [[D79-TC Pelican]] touch down in front of him and walks back to his Warthog while still facing the Pelican. Unintelligible radio chatter is then heard.
