Preliminary talk on the RC board about Club Comp dates

Whats the basic requirement for Class 2?

I'm in for it again.

I am competing Class 1 in RcRocs, so the second date works better for me. Plus April 19th is the day before Easter.

So for my rig to compete, I need a 4pt harness AND a full cage. I wont have a cage before the club comp.

Historically we've done a trail ride the Sunday after the club comp, it would suck if they did the day before Easter.

Glenn, if I didn't have a front locker i'd say lets do class one..... having two lockers knocks me out of 1 and I don't have the equipment needed for class two.... oh well maybe next year

You can still do the club comp. Your rig is setup just like mine or sal's when we did it.

Yep, 2 lockers and 35's..no class one. No 4pt, no cage.... now if I could convince Nancy to let us put 33's on her Rubi.... or if DEJA wants to "Donate" a full cage for my TJ.... Just sayin...

I don't think dee has a cage in the blue jeep on 37's she competed in last year.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.....I think we are over thinking this.

If you fit into class one or two. You are fine. That means any Jeep in production unless it is 2wd.

A wrangler comes stock with a "cage". Unless you cut the thing off and it looks like a Willy's, you are fine. You just can't remove the windshield frame because as I mentioned before, it is the A pillar.

I can't think of anyone in this club that can't compete.

EDIT: I just realized the rules aren't clear on the RC board so I'm trying to get something more clear on their board.

Putting up some clearer rules would be great. I think i'd like to try this out but don't want to wind up in a class under equipped
