| Rule info
As stated in the USRCCA rules, we are allowed to make amendments to the rules for each event based on the needs for that event. For this event here are the things that are gonna be done. -We will not be using the 20 points max per gate, then bypass rule. We are here to find out who is the best crawler, if you cannot drive it, you won’t make it. -We will only allow 1 off course repair per course per driver. During the finals course, there will be no off course repairs allowed. Any repairs made during the finals will be done with the clock running. -Tie scores will be broken by course 4, then 3, then 2 then 1. -To make things interesting the finals course max points will be changed from 40 to whatever the points spread from 1st to 5th is rounded to the highest 10. If that number is less than 40, 40 will be used. This allows the chance for anyone in the top 5 to have a chance at victory. |

How are the max points handled per stage? Is it a max of 40 or keep going until you run out of time?

If you go into the finals with a 46 point lead, we are not taking that away from you, you will still have that lead. | |

I have a question about side panels. The rules say solid side panels... Does that mean I can't run a fireplace screen mesh as side panels? How much needs to be covered? Thank you, WC |

| Not trying to be a dink, but what about fiberglass and fiberglass cloth. It would be solid and painted with no holes. You know... Like some of the fullsize guys run. Only reason I ask is I have built boats before from scratch and can work with it pretty well, its light weight, and most of all, I have it already. So, Good to go on the fiberglass boss man? |

Lexan is what most people use for the panels on their tubers so fiberglass or lexan should be just fine.

I'm not arguing the mesh vs "solid" lexan or fiber glass , but is the rules that way just to make the tubers look more like full scale ?
