Mantorville 890 points As you ride into Mantorville, you will feel like you have rolled back the clock. And there is a reason for

this. In 1963, the citizens of Mantorville took advantage of the historical value of their community and

formed the Mantorville Restoration Association. Many of the buildings have been restored to look as they

did in 1875. It would be easy to spend an entire day in this town, but you will need to be back by 6:00!

This is an all-or-nothing bonus. Successfully collect all 6 bonuses in this combo and your score will have

some historical value of its own.
