We do not allow a team to run 2 different vehicles in the same class with just a swap of driver to spotter and spotter to driver.
We have allowed it in the past with F-toy, with the ok of the board, but now that F-toy will be run like the other classes, the rules will be the same as with the other classes.
Reasoning: The second car on the course has an advantage over the rest of the competition, being that they get to run the course 2 times.
The only exception to this rule, will be if the second vehicle is run as exhibition only (it will be required to run somewhere behind the points vehicle both days)

Glad that's over.
Is this in the rules?

Just so I understand, a team can have 2 cars just as long as each car has its own designated driver and spotter. So it would take 4 people for a 2 car team.

Not sure if it is or not, but it's been the standard for at least 4 seasons, since we moved away from CalROCS and started W.E.ROCK

Correct, if both cars are in the same class..... or say run on the same courses during the same day (like Mod Stock and F-Toy)

The only way to run 2 people for 2 cars, is to run in 2 classes. Say pro mod and ftoy. I dont believe it would be allowed for unlimited/pro mod, or ftoy/stock mod.

Pro Mod and Unlimited would be allowed, they run course on different days and most of those courses get changed between days.
F-Toys and Mod Stocks run the same courses on the same days, so it would not be allowed.

Now that would make for one busy day!:D Particularly for a 2 man team with no helpers.

You would be working your Butt off.
