This comp we are going to try a new format to see how everyone likes it. If it works and everyone likes it, we will stay with it, if not then we will go back to the way the first comp was ran:

4 Total Courses

3 minute time limit per driver per course. No course or gate point outs (Basically the same thing we did for comp #1)

Also you must keep trying to make forward progess, if you stop and just sit and wait for a time out, you will be given a DNS. No one did this, but I dont want a loop hole in the rules

10 minutes break between course runs. To get ready for the next course.

Drop your highest run score (Because most everyone if going to mess up or break during one run and dont want that to ruin your chances of bring home the hardware. )

Top 5 drivers will compete on a final course.


PLEASE REPLY IF YOU CAN MAKE IT:

Trophies will be awared to the top 3 drivers.


Entry List:

1: Sinastir
2: Bill
3: Mike
4: Cooper
5: Wade
6: Darren
7: Wireman
8: Shag
9: Kinson
10: Donnie + a couple extra???
11: Biscuit
12: Alabamamen
13: Superbad
14: Richard
15: John
16. Dr Thunder

So how many gates per course?

If you dont have a point out, do you just add up their penalty points and subtract progress?

We have 5 gates per course and the start and finish gates.

Yes that is what we do. It worked good yesterday and everyone said they had a good time.

We are just going to add a 4th course next time and drop the high run score.

Well the two that were coming with Donnie and I can not make a Sunday event so it looks like just the two of us will be there for this event. If ya'll have another on Saturday, I'm sure they would love to come.

Yes most of them will be on Sat. But the month of August is busy will the other Alabama Clubs and Ga clubs. So we are just having this one on Sunday

There is two comps this same weekend. We are attending the ALRC comp on the 9th of August and our comp it the 10th. If any out of town guys want to compete in the ALRC comp on the 9th and ours on the 10th. They are more then welcome to crash at my house on the night of the 9th. It would be cool if we had guys support the ALRC comp:

ALRC Comp #3 Rock City August 9th 2008

As a few of there members supported us last comp. I know Bill, Mike and myself are planning on attending the comp on the 9th. So let me know if you have any questions. I am going to get with Rockcrawler and see what we can work out...

Thanks
Sinastir
