| In creating the rules I know that people become mad at me and get upset that I am holding them back. I would like to give them all a chance to prove it. My idea is that Sunday after the finals course has been ran we will be host to another full competition. This will be a different type of competition all together. The courses will be built to supercrawler specs, and supercrawler difficulty, but you will have no limits on your vehicle, other than it must be ground based, ie no hover crafts, helicopters, ect. If you want to build a 20 channel machine with 3 drivers all controlling different aspects of it, feel free. If you want a big arm that can reach out and pull you up a wall, awesome. 8x8, cool, tracked vehicle, fine by me. Anything you can think of will be free game. Just remember the vehicle specs are the only thing we are opening up, not the operating rules so you still won't be able to touch the vehicle, you still won't be able to winch up walls, you still won't be able to straddle cones, ect. To enter this competition you'll have to submit an application as to what your plan is, then we will review it and send invites to the top 10 ideas. Anyone wanna give it a try?

| A huge mechanical spider crawler. I think it's a great idea so we can see what's really out there. |

| I think whoever wins the Super Class should be allowed to compete against all these rigs too. Just to compare ability. |

| I thought about that, and I have also thought about just running them on the same courses that the supers do so you can see how they'd do against everyone. |
