a. GAP Broadcasting reserves
the right to makes decisions as it sees fit to promote fairness in the
competition. All decisions by the judges are final.
b. Participants may push their own ATV
if they become stuck to regain forward progress but they must keep at
least one foot on their ATV at all times. The only exception is that
a rider can take both feet off of the ATV to save the quad from turning
over. While both feet are off, no intentional forward progress can be
made. The judge's decision on this is final.
c. No person but the rider may touch the
participating ATV during the race. If any other party touches the participating
ATV during the course of the race, the rider will be immediately disqualified.
d. Boundaries of the mud bog will be clearly
marked with flags and/or banners. Participants who partially leave the
course with any portion of their ATV will be disqualified.
e. If a rider commits a false start, (leaving
the gate early) this rider will be charged one ATV length and the race
will be restarted. If a rider commits a second false start, this rider
will be disqualified.
f. DOT Helmets, boots and gloves must
be worn during any Mudstock 99X-treme Mudbog Competition. Motocross
style boots are not required. No oilfield/construction hardhats or military
helmets will be allowed. Boots mean waders, leather work boots, rubber
knee boots, motocross boots, lace up boots, etc. over the ankles. This
is intended to prevent sandals, flip flops, tennis shoes and any other
type of open toe shoe. Rubber scubbba type boots are excluded also.
Racers must wear foot protection that will completely cover the foot
and go over the ankle. Any glove that covers the entire hand to the
wrist is acceptable.

k. If a rider registers for the wrong
class that rider will be moved to the appropriate class and given the
opportunity to race. If an ATV exceeds a class then it will be bumped
to the next highest class. If it doesn't meet that class, it will be
bumped to the next highest class. In other words it will be allowed
to run in the smallest class it qualifies for not automatically raised
to the highest class. No refunds will be given if the rider chooses
not race.
l. In the event that any participant is
observed operating his machine in an unsafe or unsportsmanlike manner
he may be disqualified and excluded from competition.
m. Entrants may enter any class that they
are not disqualified from entering. In other words, a racer can race
in their class and in higher classes. You cannot race down a class.
n. Females may enter any class for which
their machine qualifies.
o. IRS and SRA quads will compete against
each other. In this type of mud pit there are no ruts that will give
an IRS quad an advantage so the classes will be based on engine size.
p. GAP Broadcasting Employees and Staff
are not eligible for competition.
q. All rules are subject to modification
as needed to promote fairness in the competition. |
