[jetboat]

Oct 25 2014
10 am Land rush start.
Saganashkee Slough boat launch
107th Street, between Archer Ave. & Willow Springs Road Willow Springs Il

$10 buy in with 100% payout.

All classes of SCALE trucks are welcome. We do ask that you not bring any "Maxx/revo" vehicles and electric only.

5 cards will be placed in a sealed envelope, you must drive your scaler to 1 end of the trail, pick up an envelope (once you find them) and drive back. High hand wins.

About the trail:
The trail is approx 1.5 miles long each direction. It will take you approx 3 hrs to complete the "out and back". There are several different routes you could take but, you can't get lost and will always end up at the same trail. The trail is sandwiched between the Slough (Lake) and the Navigation canal. The terrain varies between dirt paths on fairly level surface to LARGE steep hills, loose off camber sections, very rocky sections and boulders the size of cars.

Ill be working to secure some "door prizes" so please let us know if you plan to attend so we can let potential sponsors know.

I just packed 18 envelopes and will pack another deck worth tomorrow. I've fielded a couple emails and messages from some new people so, it promises to be a good turnout.

The way I'm doing the envelopes is double blind... my coworker shuffles the cards and then I randomly deal 10 hands of 5 and then shove them in the envelopes. No one has any idea what the hands are. I need to print a winning hand sheet and that will be the rule set for picking the winner.

Remember, it's not a race or a comp. Pack a lunch, scale at your own pace. All I ask is that you drive your truck out and back and not carry it. The only exception would be a catastrophic failure like a motor or esc. We will impose a time limit just so it doesn't drag into night fall.
