UMTC POINTS EVENT 4: Casey's XMT El Paso

spacer.png

It seems we can't get enough of the XMT tracks, so here we are at El Paso. After taking home yet another win at the Bajarama Off-Road Challenge, Damian Bowers rolls into Thursday's event as a new threat to the competition here and he wants to pick his opponent at random, so everyone participating tonight is at risk of humiliation. On the points side of things though, Chris Bialek has also made a name for himself taking away the racing win at Montreal last week. Combine that with the fact that our #1 qualifier for Finals Week, Brian Parker, took the freestyle victory that same week with an incredible performance that left many other runs in the dust andyou get a trifecta of UMTC powerhouses. However, the welcoming of two notable competitors in Trevor Michalesko and Terron Fuller makes this event a game changer as the field most of our drivers have gotten used to has now been invaded by talented newcomers. Can Ewan Ford hang on to the points lead, or will he fly too close to the scorching El Paso sun and get overtaken by other top drivers? Discord stream starts Thursday at 7:30 PM EST!

RACING RULES: Two rules, very simple.

1. Don’t one tire or red light.

2. If you roll, and your opponent rolls, whoever got further along the flow of the map wins that race.

FREESTYLE RULES:

1. Freestyles do not need to be extremely realistic. All that I ask is that if you are going to pull off a trick that is unusual, you let me and the judges know ahead of time what it is going to be. If the trick begs for us to see what it is you have in mind, we will request that you arrange a visual example with THE JUDGES, not me. 

2. You will have 5 seconds to recover from any sort of roll, and your time to recover starts the moment the top of any part of your truck makes contact with the ground. It sounds complicated, but it’s quite simple in action. No hack saves, the best you can do is play with the throttle to start a sidewall. If you begin a sidewall from being on your lid, you must obey RII if you have not yet recovered. This means that if you are given an RII while you’re still side walling, get off the throttle or kill the engine and cross your fingers. Sidewalls that produce recoveries after an RII is given will be good enough for a re-fire.

3. No hard hits allowed. Hard landings on tailgates do not count as hard hits, but even if you end up on all four wheels, violent tumbles are going to be given an RII.

4. No wall hits. Brushing the wall is fine, and having almost stopped when you hit a wall is forgiven, but only once.

5. Follow the judges and officials’ directions at all times. There is always a reason why they are telling you to do something, don’t challenge it by stalling the flow of the events. Misunderstandings or mistakes can be addressed and corrected as long as you cooperate and behave yourself.

6. Less than realistic moves that don’t come off as naturally occurring will be ignored for scoring or given as much credit as a normal backflip if they were not presented to the judges or myself ahead of time. SO MAKE SURE YOU TELL US IF YOU HAVE A SPECIAL SIGNATURE MOVE!
