"Our event is based more on fun, than hard core competition. Yes, we will have trophies. Yes, will have some (low dollar) prizes to hand out. Our "pin ball style" points system may be unfamiliar, but given a chance we think it could work out to make for a safer, driver skill orientated, good time.

The "pin ball points system" is similar to the way you get points playing a pin ball arcade game. In the designated rock crawl area we will have certain obstacles marked for you to "hit" (by putting a tire on) to gain points. Sound to easy? Take into consideration how close together these obstacles are to each other. Also consider points are achieved with both the front and rear tires. Also, from the left and right side of the vehicle. The real challenge is in knowing your vehicles capabilities and which areas to focus your attention to gain the most points without reversing, getting stuck, or worse (broken)."

Reverse will be defined as a change in momentum, caused by the actions of the driver. Ben
