How it Works: Mini-Rally

How it works:

  1. With the permission of TeamStrange, their Uniform Rules are used as the basis for the Rules which shall apply to the Cape Fear 1000. The TeamStrange Uniform Rules have been modified for this rally.
  2. Each rider or two-up team will be assigned a rider number which will be on their rally pack. Each rider or two-up team will receive a rally flag.
  3. The Mini-Rally will start and finish at the host motel in Wilmington, NC.
  4. The approximate locations and point value for each bonus will be emailed to the participants on or before April 12, 2008. The rally book with exact bonus infromation and the rally flag will be distributed at the Rider’s Meeting Saturday morning.
  5. To maximize their points, each rider/team will have to reach the finish in Wilmington, NC before the penalty phase begins at 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 19, 2008. You must be at the finish line by 4:00 P.M. on April 19 to avoid being considered “DNF”.
  6. Photo bonus locations will be involved in the mini rally. Polaroids are the preferred photos, but you may use a digital camera if you wish. However, it will be each rider’s responsibility to produce clear pictures for the scorers to review and must be able to provide copies of the photos, either prints or stored in a jpeg format on CD or diskette, at the time of scoring. In other words, if you are going to use a digital camera, you better have access to a laptop that can display the pictures and copy them onto electronic media in the jpeg format. We are not going to do it for you.
  7. Unless they have already been scored, each rider/team will be required to place their rally book, photos, receipts and any other documentation required for scoring into a sealed envelope and deposit it with the designated member of the rally staff not later than 5:30 p.m. on the date of the rally. The designated staff member will call the remaining rider numbers in the order each packet was received as seats become available at a scoring table. If you do not come forward when your number is called, your packet will be placed at the end of the stack and the next rider number will be called.
  8. Miscellaneous Penalties: If appropriate, the following penalties will be assessed at scoring:
    1. Improper/Invalid receipt (gas, purchase, etc) - 1,500 points or value of bonus, whichever is lesser.
    2. Lost or missing receipt (gas, purchase, etc) - 1,500 points or value of bonus, whichever is greater.
    3. Failure to call-in to Rallymaster without good cause in the event you know you will not finish or you know you will be late - Disqualification and Barred from future events hosted by the Coastal Carolina Rally Krewe.
    4. Other Penalties - Other situations which may arise will be addressed by the rallymaster in his sole discretion and the penalty imposed may range from a reduction in points to disqualification.
