Found in the local paper and on posters around town:
Koyan's 1st Annual (Modified) Wheelchair Race for Charity
Bring your souped up, lightning fast, modified wheelchair to race against the best of the best in Rhy'Din!
Where: The outskirts of Rhy'Din When: October 15th, 2016 Time: 3pm. Fee: $100 per entrant
First Place: Mystery Prize (It's good, just enter the race) Second Place: Mystery Prize (Not as good as 1st, but still worthwhile) Third Place: Mystery Prize (Not as good as 2nd, but you get the idea)
The course: Two miles long, on asphalt, with a few steep hills and sharp downgrades. A 'rough patch' consisting of dirt, potholes and other nefarious obstacles lies in wait somewhere along the route. Build your machine accordingly!
Bleachers for spectators will be set up at the start/finish line and elsewhere along the route. Tickets to view the event are $10 per person. Strategically positioned video cameras will project back to a large screen so spectators won't miss a second of the action. Digital copies of the race can be purchased afterward for $20 each.
All proceeds go to the Rhy'Din Children's Hospital. Donations are welcome and will be added to the final check delivered to the hospital's administration.
Rules:
All machines must have started out as a wheelchair. Either manual push or electric. Make any modifications as needed. NO MAGICAL ENHANCEMENTS ALLOWED. Put a rocket booster on, or whatever, but blatant magical advantages will be disqualified (we're watching you).
No teleporting from 'around the first bend' to 'the finish line', either.
Want to incorporate a paintball shooter to pelt the crowd on your way by' Have at it! Water balloon lobber? More power to you.
More than anything, have fun! (And buy tickets)
((Board event only. A separate post will announce winners (chosen with a random number generator) after the race is over. Feel free to go ahead and post racing details and pics of your raging machine from now until October 17th on this thread. Spectators are welcome to post here as well!))
