This event will be a timed 4×4 race event at the Verda fields just before you enter Evarts coming from Harlan. This event is open to all 4×4 enthusiasts.
Current ECORS members will earn 25 bonus points just for competing that is added to their overall season point totals. The event will be set up similar to tournament style. The top 50% of each class and round moves on until there are 2 people left, then the top person from that final round in each class will be crowned the winner. For the race, you will be racing side by side with 2 rigs on the course at a time. You will run twice and your best lap time will be counted to determine who moves on to the next round.
The course will be set up to be a short-course type of track, approx. 1.25 miles long. Competitors will have to race over jumps, whoops, rocks, etc. and battle the clock to have the best time to keep moving on each round. At the end of the day, the top driver in each class will be crowned the champion and claim prizes!
