side of the vehicle must pass over each obstacle and at no time may the truck
knock over any pylons. For every obstacle missed or pylon knocked over a 1 second

knocking over a pylon will disqualify that vehicle from that heat. Cones must be
placed no more or less than 3 inches from the edge of the ramps.

the local club and/or Event Director and announced at the drivers meeting. All
racers must marshal after completing a run. If said racer cannot marshal it is
his/her responsibility to find a fill in marshal. any driver not marshalling will
have the last truck run disqualified totally for that day of racing.

Thanks for everyone coming out we had 6 guys show up with 2.2 rigs and ran a class for them . i would like to know if you guys would like to see any classes for the crawlers and scalers to compete in. The only way this can be done is to have a min of 5 trucks for a class. There will be a special tire (IE a masher or claws) and a way to hook up the sled to your truck let me know what ever one thinks.
