Important Note:  Minor Waivers for Events
If you're a minor, or the parent/guardian of a minor, be sure to prepare yourself for the season (club racing and solo II) by completing your waiver forms.  (Must be completed by the parent/guardian).  If you intend to have a minor racing or in "hot" areas of the event, you will need to have completed these waivers that usually require two parental/guardian signatures.  Please click for more info, including forms, FAQ and guidelines.

Iowa Challenge change for 2011:
After much discussion between the Iowa, Des Moines Valley and Great River regions, a new format has been settled on for the 2011 Iowa Challenge. Each club will host one event at which points will be awarded for the top 19 PAX positions. First place will get 19 points, second place 18 points, etc., down to 1 point for 19th place. Points will be assigned to each scoring driver's primary club as long as that driver has participated in at least 2 events. The club with the most points after all three events wins! In case of a tie points from drivers that participated in just one event will be used to recalculate the totals. Participation should increase because drivers with lower skill levels will not negatively impact their club's score as has been the case in previous years. It should also more accurately determine which club has the best drivers. See calender for dates and locations.

A hole in the software was exposed in December and a large deal of spam was pasted all over the board.  I've gotten it cleaned up and am in the process of deleting thousands of bogus usernames.  If yours gets deleted, my apologies, just re-register.  It should be self-authenticating at this point.
