For instance, if you have a car that was entered in the Rock Drop Jump you believe will do well on the Pebble Path. This kind of thing will be allowed resulting in a three-car team as long as you specify which cars will be running each event.

Can I play, too?
I'm resurrecting Ruckus after a devastating house fire. Actually, I'm becoming more active in the hobby than I ever was before. Therapy. I have very limited tools and resources, but a good selection of off road wheels and a few castings on hand that suit the IPG courses. Plus my new digs include a four year old roommate who wants to go racing.
- Epic and totally worthy of a spot eh! welcom aboard... Your in — Beaverworx
- welcome back! — dr_dodge
- sorry to hear of your misfortune... glad you are making a recovery! — Stoopid_Fish_Racing
Hardcore Poetic Racing would like to send a team!
