Craig, I sent you a PM about clarification of rules on a vehicle. Havent heard back yet, so just checking to see if you got it. If it fits in the stock class, you might be short a photographer for the weekend as my wife will be running it.

I would imagine Craig is busy with Kevin getting things ready. If you want to PM me the details of her rig, I'll let you know if it will pass or what you might have to change.

I got a PM from him this morning. He answered my question. But thanks anyway.

With the fair going on during the event, where are they having everyone camp? I heard they were closing off the area to the west of the courses. Is camping going to be moved to the SW parking lot next to the rockrace course?

I am just getting into offroad (Drag Racing background), and have been back and forth of building something of a crawler or desert racer. From reading on here Rock Cross seems to be a balance of both. I have searched for videos on line and on youtube with no luck. where are info for class rules and such and some videos? I like competition (Win or lose) and it tends to give me drive. The sound of this is getting my attention.

Thanks,
Rob

There is no rules for the rock class other than you have to pass the tech inspection for the rest of rock crawling. Check out the XRRA and King of the hammers for rock cross like stuff. If thats what you want you basically need to build a rockcrawler that you can jump. check out www.oldschoolrockcrawl.com for more info on this particular event

Ultra4 would be a good place to look

Ok so it is a smaller version of KOH (Track wise, not Vehicle I mean). KOH races and crawls in the desert correct? I think that may put me right out of the budget for that. Aren't those rigs in the $60,000-$100,000 range?

Camping will be further south. I will have a map out soon.

The rule book is attached to this thread at the beginning with all the other event information. You basically need a powerful rock crawler with good suspension for the Pro Mod and Unlimited classes. Rock Cross will have a class structure starting at this event. Legend or Stock classes would be a good place to start rock racing on a budget. Ultra 4 has only one class. Pro Mod or Unlimited Old School classes would fit into the one Ultra 4 class.

Camping is open for the event. It is a little further south from where we normally are. 9:30 AM would work good on Friday. See you there!
