Will the G6 be 1.9's only or will 2.2's be allowed? The EB is going east with me!

You guys just need to have your stuff ready and keep going to the next line. Last year there where courses on top of a mountain that I should have done first but like a lot of people, when we found the last 2 courses there was a long line.

If that happened we would have a bunch of cops at LRC. Bacon for some Bacon.

Actually, that was the line from in the morning! That's the first two courses we ran and we were up there for a while!

EXACTLY....


There are approximately 105 Drivers in the field, and there are 6x courses.

If the ENTIRE field is line (BTW its impossible with Judges, Cooks, and Staff) that's an AVERAGE OF 17.5 drivers per line MAXIMUM.

my advice is if its early in the day, and you walk up to a course , and there are more than 15 drivers in that line thats not the line to be in.

Mathematically there has to be a shorter line some where.

This also brings up another question that Fish might have the answer to. If the time frame is going to be taken into consideration, will the judges be responsible for recording the start time for each driver on each course? This is what leads to Mark's question. If we aren't recording the time they start a course then there wouldn't be any way to determine whether or not they have completed 3 courses by 12:30 since they will be turning in their score sheets on every course.

I understand that most of these rules are simply being used to encourage drivers to keep moving through the courses, but there will always be someone trying to push the limits of these "rules". What if every driver got a piece of paper and was required to have a judge sign it and record the time of completion after each course. This way if they run course 1 and 4 before 12:30 and then go to course 2 the judge on that course will be able to see that they have only completed 2 courses prior to 12:30. Just ideas...

Its actually very simple....At approximately 12:30 I will have runners pick up all the score sheets turned in. The judges don't need to worry about it. If some squeezes a run in before they get picked up while the runners were in transition ....they should consider themselves LUCKY

Right but my question was if some one runs course 1 and course 6 at 1:40 there in line at course 2 but have not run, what course is a 50? 2 so that person has wasted time in that line and should move to 3? or stay in that line and get a 50 on 4 or 5 . what im sayin is how will you know what course you are getting a 50 on so you can try and get the others finished
im not plannning on this happening just like to know the rules and be prepared just in case so i know how to respond . thanks Fellas
see ya friday

Just don't screw around ,be ready, be the 1st in line at the start of the day and when your done with that course run to the next one and get in line. You'll be fine.

You do know that this is a major event and you need to be ready.

My only question on format is this:

Will there be a set format for getting in line?

Last year, I had my truck in one line for about 30-45 minutes before I realized that the judges on that course were taking score sheets for the line, while the other courses were using the truck line-up as the line.

I still had 3, if not 4 courses in by noon, so it wasn't a huge deal, but I like to run as many courses as I can as early as I can run them, so it would be nice going in if all courses are using the same format.

Good question. I personally wouldn't trust someone to hold my sheet unless I was running.
