So that's right when every circuit starts????

cm "no real good information" k :flipoff2:


JT- Hopefully you guys can plan it so your events are in a different month than others in the region. Say if ERoCC starts in April and has their second event in June, then make sure you try to put yours in May or at least a couple weeks apart from most other major circuits.

Competing in a MoROC Event
MoROC is currently accepting competitors. MoROC will cut off membership at the first 50 competitors. After the first 50 participants, there will be a waiting list to take the place of drop out competitors... If you think you have what it takes to safely and competitively participate in MoROC events, then you can sign up to be a competitor. Points will follow Drivers only. Spotters must only spot one driver per event. Drivers have to remain active in trailbuilding and have to attend every MoROC Event in order to compete...

:rolleyes:

So if a driver misses one event he's out.
This doesn't sound good if you trying to build a competitor base
.
.

I would say get your first 50 and then worry about making a waiting list.;)

My shits done and ready to compete any time. Problem is that I have top competitors asking me to spot for them. This guaratees me a PAYDAY and allows me to get some more experience while making some cash. :idea:

JT- no offense- I know your heart is in the right place- but you need to take another look at things.


You're asking competitors to sign blank checks- Must participate in trail building- dude, I have a life and it involves many things besides Krawlin, you give no hours or dates- nothing! I might show for a weekend of trail building- but that's all i've got to give.

Must show to every event- You my friend are not my mommy let alone my daddy. You've got no dates and even if you did, if I'm not welcome because I chose to miss an event for whatever reason (Sick, grenaded rig, family issues, another comp, biz commitments) that's bull.

If you want people, especially those with credentials, to come you've got to make it inviting, not my way or the highway.

Throw another post up when you get some issues worked out. I'd delete this post before your name get's ruined- my .02

Good luck:rolleyes:

Build a worthy event/series and I will be there:D

I need to update that site... those were initial things we came up with, and they are out of date. Remember that rules won't be set for a couple months... we're still in the stages of trying to consider everything, and learning from the big dogs that already have running and respected events (ie erocc/uroc/arca).

We've since talked about doing 5-6 events and taking the best scores of 3-4 or them so that it allows for a few to be missed.

We have one location partially built out - will be done this winter. There is another in the works, and people are working on yet more locations all around southern missouri.

Hopefully we'll have at least two location built out before spring 2003.

Competitors include drivers and spotters - ie a TEAM.

Definitely update the site, or at least mention that none of what's there is set in stone. As for a points series, I say include the scores from all events. If someone comes to 4 events & someone else comes to 6, the guy who came to 4 understands that he has less of a chance of winning the series. If he doesn't understand that, he needs to be MADE to understand ;)

The only think you MIGHT consider is if you have 1 or 2 events that conflict with MAJOR groups, you might consider making those events non-point events. Even that I'd think twice about though.

BTW, I really don't see a problem with your preference system for the first 50 entrants, it just needs to be worded different. If I'm reading this correctly:

*No more than 50 entrants per event
I think everyone can live with that.

*Event #1, first come, first serve
Again, no problem

*Event #2, Competitors from Event 1 get first crack at the 50 spots
Cool

*Event #2, someone from event #1 doesn't come. Alternate takes his place.
Still cool

*Event #3, guy who went to event #1 but not Event #2 wants to come. But, his spot is filled by the guy who DID come to Event #2. Guy who actually competed at most recent event gets first dibs on that spot.
Sounds reasonable to me.

*Event #3, enough from Event #2 drop out so that those who competed in #1, but not #2 have room to enter. Now, here's where it gets fuzzy. Who's at the top of your alternates list? The guys who have competed with you in the past, or the original alternates who have yet to get into an event?

LOL... hey man.. send me ideas, don't tell me I'm gonna ruin my name just because I threw some stuff up to get the gears churning... Like I've said before , NOTHING IS SET IN STONE, INITIAL STAGES, ETC... We're putting it out there to get folks involved, to get the gears turning, etc.. that is how this stuff gets started and this ain't gonna be my show. I'm not King MoROC nor do I want to steer this thing - its' gonna be the creation of many interested parties and as democratic as possible.

Anyway.. thanks for the suggestions - and again - ignore that damn page - that's way old news - I promise I'll change that page asap..

Our rules will be following Erocc for the most part going from the input I'm getting...

As far as trailbuilding - we'll expect anyone that can to help, but obviously people have lives, etc. It will be suggested that peeps help out, but I don't think there's anyway we can make that a requirement.

Anyway...

JT- glad I had you laughing- that page you sent everyone to did you in- sure it's cleared up now but in the future you might want to have that stuff fixed before you send everyone there.

I'll sign up- but you've still got the blank check thing going on.

Big dude- maybe we can hook up together sometime if you're freelancing your talent.

I'm not sure what next yr will bring for me but it would be a mistake to schedule your events too close to those of the larger series and certainly not on the same weekend. As an example- I just blew off John Loyd's Hot springs comp because I was leaving two days later for a major event. John's a good friend and i had a lot of other friends there too but who wants two days to fix things between events??

It would also be lousy for points- now the local guys who don't go anywhere else may not agree but the caliber you are trying to draw will not be impressed with lousy points because of conflicting dates with major events- if you want them there you have to make it viable.

Disney OK is close enough to you guys to be a viable site, it has been done so we know it can be done

Is this series going to be pure rock or rock and other "stuff" in the neighborhood- you know hills, trees, speed, mud etc.??

Good luck and let me know when and how I can help.

Thanks for the updates JT, I think alot of people would be happy to join in the trail building also. Just word it different! ;) Post some dates and places and maybe we can get a crew for a work weekend. I'm pretty far away and rigless for now but if a tow rig can get there I would try and make it! :D

LMAO I forgot about the "trout." Talk about history.

Hell, I can't be 100% right all the time. I'm just gathering info and helping to bring it to the masses ... for the betterment of the masses.

JT's a decent dude. If his success with MORoCC is anything like Camp Jeep and the Ozark JJ, it will be great. As with any event though, help is always needed: both intelectually and physically.

Oh, and JT, fret not about bigdude. I can take him ...

What you say is correct JT, but some of us Hobby guys are starting to look at and travel to events that are a considerable distance a way, and some have considerable entry fees.

You can only justify "spending" so much on your hobby, whether its cash, travel time or vacation time. When looking at multiple event opportunities, knowing you can't do them all, the ones that are upside down fall of the list first.

By upside down I mean, greatest distance, travel/vacation time consumed, entry fee, hotel, fuel costs all of which gets weighed against the opportunity for prize money to offset your cost.

Bottom line is for many of us hobby wheeling can be done pretty close to home with minimal expense. Competing consumes resources- you'd be a fool not to be careful how you allocate those resources.:eek:

Yep. I choose to allocate any expense reimbusrement (from winnings) to my bank account. If I was a millionaire then that $500 would go to charity, but I'm not, so that $500 covers my travel and time. ($500 as a figurative example)

No why am I "dishonorable" because of that?? I think somebody has a lot to learn and is too used to wheeling in his backyard.

True of any kind of competition wheeling. I know I've got a mud race coming up in 3 weeks that conflicts with a more "prestigious" event. But, the potential to win $$$ is about the same at both events. I've been told by a lot of folks that they're skipping THAT event because mine is closer, and therefore the cost to attend is lower (Obviously, the folks who live closer to THAT event will go there instead of here). 2 of the folks coming to mine are #1 & #2 in points with the "other" group in their class. But, they're far enough apart that the series has been decided, so they're sticking closer to home.

And the thing is, nobody even hopes to recoup ALL of their costs - not when you start talking about what they've spent on their comp rig, their tow vehicle, & their trailer. But, if you can't at least win back your gas/entry/hotel $$$ every now & then, no way could most of us afford to continue to participate in the sport.

The other groups here are those that conduct these events. I myself couldn't afford to donate my time. Sure, I could for a couple of local events every year. But, if want to do 20-30 events a year - and I do - there's an awful lot of expense involved in that, not to mention time. So much time, that to run the kind of schedule I'd like, there's no way I could hold down a "real" job. And while I applaud those groups that have been successful in putting on quality events using strictly volunteers, eventually you max out your potential way below your goals unless you start getting paid professionals. And what I mean by that is that you can only do so many events & only travel so far from your home base if all your workers are volunteers.

Now, that's not to say that charities can't benefit from these events, even when paid professionals are involved. My mud races are often used as charity fund raising events by civic organizations. They hire me to conduct the race & then they go out & get sponsors to cover a lot of their expenses. Then they collect the admissions $$ & sell a lot of food & :beer: And the next thing you know, they make $20,000 in a day even though they had to PAY someone to put on the event & had to PAY the winners of all the classes. And those winners need not feel guilty. The fact that they can make back some of their expenses is what keeps them spending money on their machines, and that's what keeps the event entertaining for the spectators. And if it's not entertaining, the spectators will stop coming. So, it's really even in the interest of the CHARITY that the competitors get paid - and perhaps even the guy who conducts the event ;)

BigDude, you whoring again:flipoff2: What they don't appreciate is you get what you pay for, including in spotters. All my free spotters did it as a favor/hobby. Some of us are moving beyond hobby when the expenses to compete are so high. I'll gladly share the purse with ya BigDude, now get your ass off the street corner, biatch!

It's all give and take. Our club has an annual Rocktoberfest in Cass, AR. (Starts Thursday) There are trail rides, a mini comp that's becoming diluted into more of an exhibition and a huge raffle, catered bbq, firewoks etc.

This event carries our non profit club's finances for the year. For the last six yrs we've donated 6K each yr to different charities.

You can only go so far with volunteers no matter how honorable or dedicated because they all have lives and commitments. In the end it all has to make sense and be semi viable to your own bank of time and $.

For those of you who don't know- Big dude has been spotting a while and has earned the reputation of having talent. I've got friends who will volunteer to spot and have all the enthusiasm in the world- talent wins over enthusiasm though and should be rewarded to some extent, at least to have a piece of winnings- pay for performance, and that is putting your money where your mouth is, which indeed is honorable.

That said, I've got a good friend in Farmington who's an Awesome spotter- Jake Attaway. He gets cranky with me when i pay his hotel bill behind his back- maybe a little too much pride.

For those that wanted more info.. come one down and find out for yourself..
Just a lil reminder, its getting close to the meeting time.. Dont forget, December 7-8th at the Sayers Brook Bison Ranch.. MOROC is here!!!!


Looks like we will have a good turnout..

Here's some directions..

Basicaly find your way to Sullivan,MO or Potosi, Mo and ive got directions for you from there..

From SULLIVAN,MO :

Will be on Interstate I44, get off at the Sullivan exit (Walmart Super Center), Turn onto Highway 185 (towards Potosi-- coming from south will turn Right onto 185, coming from north will turn left onto 185), go approximately 35 miles, Turn RIGHT onto AA highway, go 7 miles, will go down a huge hill then on the crest of the next smaller hill you will see a sign that reads, "Sayers Brook Bison Ranch" (sign is on left) BUT you will need to turn RIGHT, go past several houses, acrossed a creek, will drive by several fields, and end up looking straight at a ranch house, will come to a tee in the road, take the road that goes betweem the shed and the house, drive passed the parking lot on the right and proceed up the hill, just before you get to a "grate" in the road, you will turn LEFT, it will take you to a large parking lot and a pavillion by the lake.. Its paved road all the way to the pavillion..

From POTOSI, MO :
You will turn RIGHT onto highway 8 at the Citgo station ( which is best place to gas up before the ranch), and right next to the citgo is a Super 8, the best place to stay there, will post phone number later.. Go through town on highway 8, Just after you get out of town you will cross a bridge, shortly after the bridge, you will turn right onto Highway 185, drive about 1 mile and turn LEFT onto Highway AA, drive for 7 miles, will go down a huge hill then on the crest of the next smaller hill you will see a sign that reads, "Sayers Brook Bison Ranch" (sign is on left) BUT you will need to turn RIGHT, go past several houses, acrossed a creek, will drive by several fields, and end up looking straight at a ranch house, will come to a tee in the road, take the road that goes betweem the shed and the house, drive passed the parking lot on the right and proceed up the hill, just before you get to a "grate" in the road, you will turn LEFT, it will take you to a large parking lot and a pavillion by the lake..
