RCCrawler.com is proud to announce that we will be providing live coverage of the 2008 Midwest 2.2 Challenge. We'll start the coverage Friday 2/29 with a live road trip from the RCC short bus. We have 9 competitors and RCC staff members all piling into a van and driving from Denver all the way across Kansas to Kansas City, Missouri the location of the event. This interactive road trip is sure to be entertaining.

Friday night we'll post up videos and pictures of the courses, the competitors, and the rigs to give all of you that couldn't make it to the event a front row view just like you were there.

Early Saturday morning we'll start the competition coverage which will include a constant blog being posted throughout the day, including photos, video, and up to the minute scoring. We are also working on being able to provide a live camera setup at the event and playing all day long. With this camera you'll be able to see an overview of the event and hear live audio as the event is going on. This camera will only work in Microsoft Internet Explorer. Stick close to the live camera all day saturday as competitors and jokers from all across the country will be stopping in front of the camera throughout the day. We'll see which one of you can capture the best screenshot!

Sunday we'll post up pics and video of the antics that are sure to occur saturday night after the comp is over. We'll also be loading up the shortbus again and heading west with another roadtrip thread.

Monday we're going to a top secret location to crawl, bash the 5b and see what other kind of trouble we can get in, of course you will all be there with us. Once we've had our fun you can join us for the last half of the road trip home.

It's going to be a great weekend, be sure not to get too far away from your computer!

We have arrived at Fastlane Raceway in Blue Springs, MO. The facilities here are top notch and the KCRC crew really outdid themselves with the course setup. Any drama that was talked about before now has been squashed the minute we got a glimse of the courses. We've got the live cameras up and running, and we're ready to bring you the best event coverage to date.

Off to get some well deserved sleep, we'll see all of you first thing in the morning.

For now checkout this course walk through!

Fastlane Raceway has a huge pit area which was filled quickly this morning with the 75 competitors.


The guys at KSRC did a great job on the courses, they are prooving to be very difficult as several of the competitors have had to take repair penalties.
