This will be a FREE scored event similar to the RECON G6 style. Date: October 5th 2014 Location: Magnolia Bluff County Park 4002 N Croak Rd Evansville, Wisconsin 53536 Time: Drivers meeting @ Noon in the lower lot Tow Strap is the only mandatory item. (I will be making a bunch and have them for sale dirt cheap at the event) Drivers from the age of 2 to 150 years of age are welcome Rigs of any type are welcome. We plan on using the SORRCA rules for the rigs but may just do classes by wheel size, IE 1.55, 1.9 and 2.2 with all wraiths in the 2.2 class. This is not finalized yet. Build and bring your rigs how you want. Scoring and points format as follows. Rule #1: Have fun!! Rule #2: No hand of god Rule #3: A driver can not drive through a Gate marker and reverse back through it to avoid trail obstacles. This will result in a DQ. A stage is directional and a driver must maintain the intended direction of travel. Reversing through the Gate marker in the intended direction is ok. Rule #4: There isn't any time restrictions, so to keep the rigs flowing please keep your attempts at obstacles to 3 tries. If you can't get it after 3, winch (penalty or non penalty) or have a fellow competitor pull you with your tow strap. All drivers start with 0 points. Scoring is on the honor system, as in you score yourself as you go. No penalty for reveses, winches, sand rails etc. Progress: -2 points Gate Marker Touch: +10 points Penalty Winch: +5 points Penalty Winch: (+5 points) In the case that there is not a competitor there to help you with a pull strap, or you do not have a working winch, then you may employ the penalty winch. The penalty winch is a scale tow strap, lanyard, or winch line that you would operate with your hand acting as another vehicle to extract your stuck rig. The idea is to act as though your hand is another vehicle and pull the stuck or rolled over vehicle out of its situation in a “scale manner”. You must mark the use of the penalty winch down in the driver’s log book. It is always best to use an onboard working electric winch, or use a tow strap with the assistance from another competitor. Use of either of these methods does not result in a penalty. This is all i have for now. I will update with more info as it comes up. Any questions, comments, concerns, don't hesitate to ask.
