All events will have the following schedule:

Please plan to attend as many events as possible, even if you cannot attend all events, come out, have fun, fellowship, and support VARCOR. The more practice each of us get the better, and the more competitors the merrier.

Make sure you bring out the 1.9's and anything else you got if you have them. We will try to fit in some course runs and trail rides at each event afterwards, time permitting.

If there are any questions or concerns, please contact '04 Rubicon, Scooteracing, Swell Searcher, or Thorsteenster and we will be happy to assist.

VARCOR 2008 Point Series Standings

Link fixed

Please disregard the above link as the Point Series Standings was moved to this location - http://www.varcoffroaders.com/varcor...s%20Totals.pdf.

april 27th is stated as the next comp, do we have a location where in Richmond yet?

At the last Comp, I think Ponies Pasture was discussed as the next Richmond location.


I thought we were going to have eight events originally, with the six best scores counting towards series total?

Yeah mark will be posting the registration for Comp #4 either Monday or Tuesday. And yes, it's Pony Pasture.

Robb, we could only fit seven comps in before the cut off for nationals. With Memorial Day and 4th July weekends, we couldn't get a total of 8 in. Even if we did 8 comps, only 1 would drop.

yeah were going to have to jump 04rubicon and tape him to a tree so we can catch him?

We'll just make him run with 3 wheels!"thumbsup"

Please see VARCOR for some clarifications and changes for the remaining comps:

Only one more event for the VARCOR 2008 Series. I'd say the season has gone quite well so far. It has been great meeting so many new people and watching our hobby grow. Looking forward to the final event on July 19th at Pony Pasture.

After the series we are going to re-evaluate a few things such as series schedule(s), points process, memberships, fees, prizes, etc. I think as a club we have learned a ton, and we keep learning how to do things better/faster/more efficient. Ideally we would have a GTG sometime in August to discuss these things as a club, we'll see.

Keep an eye out, there will be more to come. Thanks to everyone for their participation and support of VARCOR.
