I had asked this question a little while ago, and I did not get much resopnse,
so I am trying again.

Would there be an intrest in having a RC Racer compition at BrickFest?

Here is what I was thinking:

Where: We use the lobby area on the First floor of GMU (from what I remember the
floor is checkered linoleum?

What: This is where we can go 2 different ways:
  We could have a course that contained a series of turns, where you would have
to direct your vehicle through a series of solomon gates arrange around the
floor. with each set of three racers sucessfully completing 3-5 laps to finish.
there would be no barriers to contend with, just the skill of the driver
  Or
  We could do a Drag racing event, From what I remember the lobby is fairly
long.

The next questions would be, what type of categories/classes would we need for
the competition?

I was thinking of a standard class (Stock RC racer with two motors...)
and a unlimited class (as many motors as possible).

Any Thoughts, If so Please respond by the end of the week so that I can get the
details to the BrickFest organizers.

Thanks..
Jeff VW

(...) I'm just worried we'd be spreading the audience a little thin between this, PipeRacers and all the stuff John Barnes is doing... ...I will be putting the final PipeRacers rules up tonight. Calum (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.technic)

(...) See my previous post: (URL) for ideas. Happy to help, as long as the rules are really only used for BrickFest. My idea was for an internet based competition, however. Use the rules however you wish. Any, all, none at all. Max (21 years ago, 8-Jul-03, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.technic)
