Damn Matt, you already finished your video?? You're making me look bad bro! I still have a lot of work to do on mine. I had to recover on Monday after work and had band practice yesterday. I can't wait to check out your video tonight, I bet it's gonna be tight. |

Just as long as one member of the original registered team is still in the race under their reg team number. We rather everyone made it every time, but we all know sh@t happens. Lets say your team made it to all the events, but at the last event your team mate could not make it due to what ever. It's not fair to the other team mate who may have a pinch driver available to lose out on the whole seasons efforts. Does that seem wrong to you ?? Should they just receive a DNF for the day ?? What do you guys think ?? Last edited by DORK VADER; 06-06-2012 at 04:49 PM. | |

I know I'm not in the top standings but for me it's been hard to get a partner. I think as long as a team can make most events they should keep their points. We have seen how hard it is to get people to events. The more restrictions you put on an event the less participants will show up. We are a small notch hobby and events like RCOTC are one of the reasons people stay interested.

What about the "teams" that DID make all of the events even if they had to take time off work? If its a "team" series, you should have to finish with the same "team" to be eligible for the overall win. Thats just my opinion and it dont mean squat but thats why we dont do any "series" G6's. It sucks hearing how cool these RCOTC events were and us not going cuz i misunderstood how they worked!!! Once again, MY BAD, not yours. Im just pissed i didnt get to come hang out with you, Mandy and Otis! Couple more weeks and we will get to hang out and drive our toy trucks! | |

B-rad, we miss you too and I was honest when asking for your opinion, cause for me it just seemed like the right choice.. The stand in rig was tech'd to the same standards and it was the drivers first time in a RCOTC.. If that helps .. Now, I do like the idea of the stand in driver having to run the missing drivers rig, it just possibly can make things hard in a last minute situation.. We have one more event that we are thinking of having an LCQ with 3 spots available to any team that wants to take a shot at getting into the final with the top ten teams.. If that works out, come out for that one. We will see you at Axialfest. Last edited by DORK VADER; 06-06-2012 at 10:29 PM. | |

| Re: RC Overland Team Challenge Event 4 - JUNE 3rd 2012 Utica Reservoir / Slick Rock See there you can miss pretty much the whole season make the last regular event and still qualify for the final event, that's what I am talking about. I really like your thinking Matt. I think Leen was right when he said making to many restrictions will just turn guys off in even going to the events.

An LCQ could make for a good show... What do the seasoned teams think of an LCQ ??? Is it fair to those teams that have followed the series and battled their way through ??? Let me know.. Last edited by DORK VADER; 06-06-2012 at 10:28 PM. | |

| Re: RC Overland Team Challenge Event 4 - JUNE 3rd 2012 Utica Reservoir / Slick Rock Well I think that's a lot less fair then having an alternate team driver but that's just my opinion. I guess what you can do is acknowledge the over all season winner and a season final event winner. I know you are trying to be as open minded as possible and I appreciate that, but this is your show and I am good with what ever you decide Matt.

Thanks for the feed back James.. There is still much to be worked out with this formula... The top 10 teams will be acknowledged and entered into the final event. The LCQ idea is really for those teams just out of the top 10... Maybe if the LCQ is invite only to the 11th -13th place teams... Last edited by DORK VADER; 06-06-2012 at 11:12 PM. | |

Matt, I think that inviting the three teams that are just out of the top ten would be fair and would give those teams a chance to show that they deserve a spot in the final if they can perform well enough in the LCQ. I'm not sure where Team 209 stands in the points as of now but I do know that we would greatly appreciate the opportunity to make it to the finals with an LCQ if we were 11-13. Just my 2 cents but I think you're on the right path bro and I'll stand behind your decision no matter what. |
