February 26, 2022: RC Field Days Anniversary Competition

Join us for the RC Field Days Anniversary Competition in February to celebrate a year of fun at the Farmstead!

Pre-Registration is now closed.

Courses will be set on the Rock Wall, the Boneyard, and Chutes and Ladders, our newest course area (opened in Fall 2021 behind the Bronco). Each course will be timed individually with set penalties if you need assistance to flip back over during your run. Prizes will be awarded for the lowest time on each course and a grand prize for the lowest combined time of the day in each class.

All rigs need to be running 1.9 or smaller wheels. We will not be following SORRCA or scale rules. The focus is on running the courses with the best time and enjoying the day. We want this to be as fair – and FUN – as possible. Bring your rig the way you would run it any other weekend.

We will be dividing entries into two classes upon our own system announced the day of the event to prevent anyone from trying to modify their rig to take advantage of the classes.

Payouts Per Class:
Grand Prize for lowest combined time of the day (all 3 courses combined)
1st – $25 per course
2nd – $15 per course

All registered drivers will be in the door prize drawings.

General Rules:
• Courses will be marked the day of the competition. Courses may be viewed after check-in, but no pre-running is allowed.
• Starting order will be a random draw for the first course.
• Winching or ramping of any kind is not allowed.
• You cannot run the same vehicle in more than one class.
• The vehicle must finish a course in the same wheelbase, track width, ride height, and tires it started that course with.
• Vehicles cannot be exchanged for another vehicle during the competition.
• Drivers may not make changes to wheelbase, track width, ride height, or tires between course runs.

Penalties:
• For roped courses, rigs must stay in the marked course. If a tire crosses over the ropes, you must reverse and start forward motion inside the ropes again from that spot.
• For courses with gates, all four tires must pass through the gates.
• If you have to touch your rig it will be a 30 second penalty.
