| Crawl Space Scale Adventure Series 2014
We are streamlining the Scale Adventure series this to year to make it easier for new drivers to enjoy and increase the overall Fun Factor. A Scale Adventure is just like the name implies, Adventure. Drivers will navigate a course marked with numbered gates within the alotted time. Course time limit: 3-4 hours depending on terrain and location. Drivers will also be given a mission to complete along with driving the course. Drivers must collect items to complete their mission. Mission Items will be spread out along or close to the course, so keep your eyes peeled. The Driver Mission will be outlined before the start of the course. Once your mission is completed, complete the course and check in at base camp to turn in your items and get your score for the day. Classes: Trucks will be divided into the standard SORCCA Class specs, Class 1, 2 and 3. Scale Adventure Rig Requirements. -A scale vehicle must be 1/10 car / truck with a scale chassis or custom tube scale chassis. -Tires may be 1.55, 1.9, or 2.2, but must be a licensed manufactured tire or knock offs. Tires must resemble the real thing and can be siped or grooved. -Minimum 10 scale points. -A tow strap is mandatory and can be used to self recover a truck. -A winch is not mandatory, but highly recommended. -A spare tire is not mandatory, but highly recommended. -Other items may be required for specific Scale Adventure and will be announced before each event. -All scale recovery items/tools, must be attached to the vehicle and after their use, be placed back on the vehicle. This includes sand ramps, tow straps, and hi-lift jacks. Real tools may be carried by the driver. -Class 3 trucks are allowed to use dig and/or 4 wheel steering on course without penalty. Scale Adventure rules. Rule #1. HAVE FUN! Drivers must navigate the course with integrity. If you hit a gate on course, replace the gate and attempt it again for a clean progress. You are only cheating yourself by not driving the course properly and completing the course and mission. Rule #2. Team Up. We encourage drivers to help others through the course and collect items to complete their mission. Each driver must collect their own set of Mission Items to complete their mission. Mission items must be carried on the scale rig at all times, no pockets. Rule #3. NO HAND OF GOD. (HOG) A driver may not assist, stop, catch, or kick his/her vehicle. There are no penalties for reverses, gates, winching or using your tow strap so DRIVE SMART! Drivers may use their winch, tow rope or other truck to recover their rig. Performing on course repairs or having to touch your vehicle for recovery purposes is not hogging. Picking your vehicle up out of water, mud, sand or rolling it over onto its wheels with your hand are all examples of hogging your vehicle and resulting in a disqualification penalty. You must report back to Base Camp in the event of HOG. Rule #4. A driver can not drive through a gate & reverse back through it to avoid trail obstacles. This will result in a DQ. A course is directional & must be progressed in the intended direction of travel. Reversing through the trail marker in the intended direction is ok & allowed during reverse sections. Scoring and penalties. Driver with the lowest time and all their Mission Items collected gets first place, second lowest time and all Mission Items collected gets second place, etc, etc. -Reverse course direction: DQ. -Hand Of God (HOG): DQ. Skill Sections, where applicable. |

This sounds awesome! I can't wait to bring my Defender once it's finished. Will there be multiple drivers/rigs on the courses at a time? Is there a possibility of any water crossings that would require waterproofing? Thanks! |

All drivers will be on course at the same time. Depending on the weather there may be some standing water on course but nothing that will require waterproofing | |
