Tri-Pod Challenge - Day 1
Day 1 of the 9th Annual Tri-Pod Challenge which pits Wisconsin vs Minnesota vs Illinois (and now maybe Iowa and Michigan). Each drivers claims a home region/state, then each position fill in the top 20 on index get a point with the top driver on index receiving a bonus point. We combine points from the two days for the to determine a winner. The top driver from the winning region/state gets to take the traveling trophy (Helga) home and add something to it for the following year.
The tiebreaker will be the region/state with top index time on Day 2. If the tying region/states did not take the top index time on Day 2, it will defer to top index on Day 1, then it will defer to the highest placing position on index on Day 2.

Are you new? During this registration you'll be asked for a car class. Don't worry, we have a couple worksheets to help you determine your car class, reviewing these will help you class your car. We offer a Novice Class for entrants in their first year, while registering place Novice (N) in the "Class" field, then the base class in the "PAX" field, and a number. If you still do not know what class your car is supposed to be in, then select "I Don't Know" in the class list and we will help you in registration.

- Minor's must have a signed waiver which has to be printed in color. If there are 2 parents/legal guardians they both need to either sign this waiver while being witnessed by registration or have a notary sign this waiver saying they witnessed the signature. One parent/legal guardian must be onsite for the entire event. If on a learner's permit, the parent can either ride along with the student or give written permission to have an instructor ride with them instead.
