| winch use and roll over points question...........
i'm reading the scale rules and don't see an answer for roll overs using a winch instead of using your hand to roll back on 4 wheels....i built hooks on my beds roll bar to use my winch line to right my truck when on it's side, the rules says this.... Quote:
2nd red sentence - again i wouldn't be assisting it with a touch by hand.... 3rd red sentence - since i'll be using my winch this should apply as well.... any thoughts on this, i know the clock will still be running....but my thought building the hooks on my roll bar is to eliminate the roll over and touch points since i won't need to touch my truck to right it back on all 4 wheels....since using my winch excludes those points when using the winch....maybe this wasn't thought of when the rules were made up, but i would like to know what i'll be good for when this happens.........bob .... | |

So you are really over thinking this . If you roll over and use your winch to right yourself it's a winch penalty (+2). If you use your hand/foot/radio/a stick etc to roll your rig back on its tires, it's a roll penalty (+5).
