is there anything like this in BC? Lower mainland, Fraser valley area?

jetboat · 07-16-2009, 03:14 PM

could we get some pics/prize info etc. This event will be competing with Nats/worlds for drivers but, might get the people from the east coast that cant make nats.

Supers?

Kamikaze · 07-16-2009, 03:42 PM

Hmm,worlds.....38 hour drive.....go to canada.......17 hour drive.

I might just show up for this one.

CRSMacgyver · 07-16-2009, 03:49 PM

That is only a couple hours from my parent's house. Unfortunately I will be up there 2 weeks before that.

jason · 07-16-2009, 07:00 PM

250 competitors? Really?

Can you link us to some other crawling events you guys have put on?

dezfan · 07-16-2009, 07:19 PM

$10,000.00 purse!

The cash prizing is listed, might jump a little higher. There will be raffles all weekend, trophies etc. Our event requires no invite or qualifying you show, you crawl, you place. lol Sorry no super class we will be busy with the 3 that we are running. However, if you have one bring it and we'll have space for you to play.

Kamikaze- 17 hours seems more logical to me!! ;)

CRSMacgyver- Parents who says you only have to visit once.

jason- 250 compers spread over 3 classes, spread over 2-3 days. good judges and staff will help this along.

dezfan- yes $10,000

But we need everyone to step up and register soon so that we can be fully prepared for this.

jetboat · 07-17-2009, 07:33 AM

I'm not trying to be negative or skeptical but, if I'm going to go to this event versus Nats/worlds (which is put on by people with a record for good events) it would be nice to know some more details about the event and the prize list.

So please provide some specifics, I'm not doubting that this could be a kick but event... I just don't want to drive 12hrs across international boundaries to come to a comp with 15 amateur drivers and a couple small prizes.

CrawlMater · 07-17-2009, 08:04 AM

As you may know this competition is the first of it's size to hit Canada. It's also the first of it's size to be held at our facility. Knowing that this is a big deal, we have started hiring extra help, judges, and staff.

As for prizing we are not sure at this point what our sponsors are providing. But the cash prizing and trophies are being paid by the Owners of Doohicky Hobbies here in Ottawa. The cash prizing is as listed above, trophies will be handed out to top 5 in each class.

15 amateur drivers? lol improves your chances at $2500. Will be more then that.

jetboat · 07-17-2009, 08:21 AM

how about at least some pics of the terrain?

bmaxx245 · 07-17-2009, 02:56 PM

Well I have seen the Crawloseum, and let me tell you... You will not be disappointed

I know these guys and gals are working very hard to make this AWESOME!

Here are some picks of aboot one quarter of the course, I may be able to sneak into it and get some more of it later.

MDcrawler72 · 07-18-2009, 04:15 AM

Looks like a good event and only an 8 1/2 drive for me!

Kamikaze · 07-19-2009, 12:26 PM

I'm looking for my passport!

joesbruiser · 07-20-2009, 10:07 PM

Would it be possible to get a current drivers list?

jetboat · 07-21-2009, 10:53 AM

how about an idea of what is close to the area for those crossing international boundaries... Might as well make a vacation out of it.

Del Monte · 07-21-2009, 11:27 AM

Cool! I'm looking into travel details now

How close is the closest airport?

CrawlMater · 07-22-2009, 05:21 PM

IMPORTANT NOTICE!!!!!
Hey guys and gals this event is being pushed to the 11th,12th,13th of September by request of our sponsors. This is going to allow them time after the worlds to prep their teams. The team from Pro-line is now expected to be competing !!!!! Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

As teams sign on we will up date.

bmaxx245 · 07-23-2009, 04:36 AM

Ottawa international airport, It's aboot 35-45 min away from the comp. There are quite a few campgrounds with in a reasonable distance and of course there are lots of hotels surrounding the airport. Oh and the Ogdensburg NY internatonal bridge is aboot 45min to an hour away from the Crawlosem.

These may help EH!!!
