New track layout is in and ready to race on.

We will have two Tue night races & open practice on the new layout which will have the groove ready for regionals race. The track is open to practice for free everyday. Come practice on Sat to get ready for the race.

The more people that come to the race means that you get more money when you win your class. Bring your friends along to make sure that you get a larger payout.

O well...
Well it looks like every one just flew right past my last post. It really didn't matter until I started thinking about it. A few years ago when Peel It was around I was reading something about having to have trophy's at a regional event... Went looking around on ROAR's rule book and found some interesting information. I personally will be attending Nationals so I cant risk my ROAR membership. Kody

Here is a chapter right off the 2010 ROAR rule book:

5.16 AWARDS
5.16.1 Awards for Level 2, 3, and 4 events should be plaques or trophies appropriate to the
event being conducted. Awards at Level 1 events are at the discretion of the Race
Director, and are not required when points are awarded leading to end of series or
season awards. If awards are given at this level, ribbons, small plaques, or small
trophies are recommended.
5.16.2 At Level 2 and 3 events it is recommended that a minimum of 15% of the entry fees
be spent on awards. At level 4 events 15% of the total entry fees is the required
minimum budget for awards and will be determined using the total entry fee amount
collected by the registration deadline date, thirty days before the event. The style and
quality of the awards will be the same throughout all classes and presented to at least
the first three place finishers of all Mains. Level 5 events that are considered ROAR
Nationals, ROAR will contract for awards that are of the style and quality representing
the event.
5.16.3 No cash prizes or cash compensation awards are allowed at ROAR-sanctioned
events. Any ROAR Club or Track conducting such an event will have its annual club
membership voided and will be barred from holding a ROAR-sanctioned event for a
period of one year from the violating event.

Note: This ruling does not apply to individual non-sanctioned events that are
publicized as being non-sanctioned, but does apply to any regularly scheduled level 1
events, as these are automatically considered to be ROAR-sanctioned events. (See
1.1.12 above)
5.16.4 All ROAR drivers participating in events outlined in rule 5.16.3 will have their
memberships revoked, and will not be eligible for reinstatement for a period of one
year.

Basically I am just looking out for every ones back. Regionals is a level 3 event. Level 3-5 events to do any deviation from ROAR rules must have been
applied for in writing and approved by the ROAR Executive Committee (by signature of the Competition Director for Level 5 events or Track Director for Levels 3-4) in advance of the event, and must be prominent on entry forms and all advertisements. Deviations at Level 1 and 2 events must be prominent on all entry forms and advertisements but does not need written ROAR Executive Committee approval.

Looking at the rules the Competition Director or Track Director would have to make the call. But to be honest its not the type of rule that can be changed I think.

Default Minivan to Salem

I've gotten clearance from the Team Mason Comp Committee, so if anyone from up here (Seattle-ish) wants a ride down to regionals, I'm going.

It's a Saturday down and back, so an alpine start and an evening return. Kody, Canyon, Wes and I did it early in the season and it worked great. I've got room for three. PM me if you want to come.

Thanks RCPlus for hosting ROAR Regionals!

Ron,

I just replied to your PM.

Just an FYI I never made a call to anyone at ROAR... Just want to make that a fact.

Looks like we just race for the title and we can use our gift cards to buy awards. As long as its legal that A OK by me!
