Please note change to Rule 12 (in red).
12. Parts - Groups
12A. Breakdown and repairs must be completed in the designated Competition Area. If parts required are carried by the competitor there will be no penalty incurred for field repairs. If tools or parts have to be sourced from camp, competitors or outside Xtreme Base for repairs there will be a 20-point penalty.
Please Note: -
• Teams may nominate one (1) “Team Assistant” to assist with repairs. The “Team Assistant” must be prepared to assist other Teams when requested. The request must be directed to the Competition Manager who will then direct the “Team Assistant” to assist the requesting Team if warranted. Refusal of request by “Team Assistant” may exclude him/her from assisting his/her nominated Team.
• Fellow competitors are allowed and encouraged to assist with repairs and loan tools that are carried in their competing vehicle.
• Sundry type supplies are allowed to be given to other competitors without a penalty being recorded and use of specialized tools is also allowed. Separate list will be supplied before start of each Round.
• Competitors are required to supply a list of all parts carried in competition vehicle at the start of XWC.
• In the interest of making this event fair for everyone, it is in the competitors’ best interest to report to the Competition Manager any Team that tries to circumvent this rule. Any Team that attempts to do so will incur a 100-point penalty”.
