    And we got disqualified from districts.

    My post was made 20 mins after all that happened. In hindsight I shouldn’t have assumed the rules were the same. Just sucks they didn’t make it more of an announcement of a major rule change. 4 wheels touching is a pretty major rule change.

    It’s all good. Lesson learned. I’m definitely pissed at them for the lack of communication on the change and letting others pass on other broken rules. But it’s more my fault for not rereading the rules for this year and just assuming they were the same as last years. I let my boy down and...

    Peoples choice awards, needs some ideas...

    Guess I’m a little confused. Why not just have numbered cups? Each car is assigned their own number on the rack. Just line up cups with numbers on them and kids can drop their tickets in the cup correlated with the cars number on the rack.

    Wish us luck. Not as fast as I wanted them. Just didn’t have the time to really fine tune.
