Forest Falls Scale Challenge September 15th

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 15th. DRIVERS MEETING AT 8:00AM

$5 entry per class

This includes lunch. We are not sure what lunch will be yet but I will announce it soon.

This comp will be located near Prosperity, SC.

Here is the road we will be meeting on Sunday Morning. You will drive down Langsford street till you get to the event tents. We will be parking vehicles along the road, or if you have an SUV or truck we will park you in the field at the end past the creek where everyone is camping. THERE IS NOT STREET SIGN on LANGSFORD STREET. I will try to put something RC related on the gate so you can tell you are at the right place.

If you think you may have an issue finding the place PM me and I can give you my cell if you dont already have it.

Drivers Meeting starts at 8:00AM with the first runs at 8:30. Have your truck Registered before 8:30.

We will be using the rules we have been discussing in this thread:

http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/south...iscussion.html

There will be 4 Events. 2 (20 gate) Trail run obstacle courses, a hill climb, and a sled pull. We have streamlined our scoring and courses and this would should go much smoother than this past comp.

One of the courses has some water on it as seen in the pictures below. Its not much more than what you encountered at the River Runner Comp, but I just want to warn you. Yesterday we tested all of the water areas with Roberts stock electronics honcho and nothing was too deep. I would say nothing is deeper than hub deep if you stay on the trail.

This event will be scored individually, but we will have pairs running that are welcome to help each other. I will explain more soon.

We'll be using the SORRCA rules ( SORRCA.com ) for scale points, you will get bonus points toward your final score for having scale looks.

We will be running Class 2 and Class 3 at this event. If there is enough interest in class 1 we will look into it, but in the past it has not been more than 1 or 2 people.

If you have a question about your rig and whether it'll be allowed to run, please PM me NOW so we can sort it out or clarify anything prior to you getting out there.

Stuff to bring:
Trucks, transmitter, batteries, charger, and spare parts!
Bug spray
Sunblock.
Drinks
Cameras!
Lawn chairs if you would like to sit on something.

Now for the somewhat serious part. All entrants will need to sign a waiver. We don't expect anything to happen, but just in case...

Also, should you cause problems for others, you may be asked to leave. We're trying to keep this fun, and we don't want anyone to ruin it for others. In short, don't be a dick or throw a temper tantrum, and we'll all be fine. This is a family event, and there will be kids there, so make sure yours are under control as well. This is private property, everything we bring in goes with us when we leave.

Camping/Hotels

There is a great field there on the property, if anyone wants to camp Saturday night you are welcome to come out and enjoy the wooded area and camp.

There is also a holiday inn express at the newberry exit 76 on I26 for anyone afraid of the woods.

Here are some pictures from the trails.
