Special Stage Event Day Rundown
Special Stage events will be run different than Final Bout. We will not have each team take 2 judged team runs. Instead, drivers will be informed of a window of time in which teams should drive together and they will be judged during that time, both based on appearance and driving ability as with all Final Bout's. It will not be formal judging but teams will be chosen based on their performance during this period. Take as many runs as you can during the period, there is no minimum or maximum. More details will be explained during the drivers meeting which will take place at 9AM on Sunday.
Final Bout will select the best teams to be invited to Final Bout 4, we will not announce all teams selected for Final Bout 4 at the event.
Any questions or concerns, please contact Simba at 630-362-4178 or simba@final-bout.com
