So how do you register? Registering for the one time fall event will be very easy. On August 29th the registration form will be on the main page of the RC website. You must print the form and fill it out COMPLETE and mail it in with a $50 check. No pay pal because some people don't have paypal.
http://www.rc4x4.org/dep/docs/compreg.pdf

please pick several 3 digit number's to put on the application in the appropriate spot for your team number.

Once we receive your registration form and check you will be added to the list. To keep things equal we will keep registration open till Sept 30th to gather all applicants. If a class exceeds the allotted 25 vehicle's per class we will do a drawing (lottery) for that class.

If we do a lottery system we will start a waiting list. If your vehicle fails tech or your check doesn't clear the 1st person on the waiting list will be moved up.We will be having a practice day for drivers and judges sometime in Oct (date to come very soon).

Info on TECH Some of you may know Tommy who keeps the traffic moving in the mornings during check in. He will be doing Tech inspections at the office between 10am and noon each Saturday and Sunday. Please PM or email him savitskioffroad@yahoo.com to let him know you are coming. If you have any questions or concerns about the results of the Tech we can talk and figure out a solution (hopefully)

Again if you can't make it to the park before the event and you are registered for the event you will be rolling the dice the morning of the event to see if you pass tech.

General Rule's

NO person who has competed professionally, DRIVER or SPOTTER, may operate the vehicle, or be be a spotter. this isn't for you, this is for the new upstart's wanting to get into the sport. ( I.E. WEROCK, NEUROCK, UROC, EROC )

NO competition vehicle's in any street/super stock class.
competition vehicle's may enter in Class 3 ONLY ( run what ya brung ) no matter what tire size they have
Judge's and Staff reserve the right to disqualify any vehicle or person's from the event for any reason they feel is not safe or in accordance with the rule's.
Judge's ruling is FINAL, no overturning of a judgement call unless there's a misinterpretation of the rule's.
if there's a dispute over a call, time will be stopped and a marshall will be called to oversee the dispute if need be.
No team can stop time of another team over a disputed call or ruling.

ALL rule's are subject to change without notice !

All spotter's must wear a helmet of some kind, motorcycle, bicycle, something.
ALL vehicle's MUST have a fire extinguisher on board and attached to the vehicle in some manner ( zip tie's etc. ) and be readily available
ALL vehicle's must pass a safety inspection prior to the scheduled date. you may however be tech'd that morning but you will lose the right to compete if you fail inspection and it cannot be fixed in a timely manner.

OK it looks like the practice day will be OCT 21st. The plan will be to have cones set up for all three levels. The courses will be ready for 10am so after checking in at the office head on up to the comp area and check in with the crew. We can go over any questions and rules that day that you may have.

The practice is for those who have signed up for the fall comp. SO get the form off the kitchen table and mail it in soon.

Thanks

Jim Bowman and I are in, with Matt Moore as an alternate. Sent in the forms today to run the adrenaline jeep in Class 2.

We will be out there Sunday for the practice runs and tech inspection. Pretty exciting stuff.

They have extended the deadline for entries to Oct 21st, so its not too late for anyone else... Also if you are a driver in need of a spotter, I think Matt would love to play dfjsksdkfjsd

Yeah I picked 666 first but she held my application when randy wrecked the bronco. someone else picked that number. then I tried 999 so when I flip it will still be 666. that was taken as well so now i'm 696 I think. Randys bronco may be ready for the comp.
