For the registration of teams in 2012, there are some changes to be aware of:
1. Teams will register as a single entity by the Team Captain, who will complete a single registration form and pay on behalf of all team members. Preview the registration form <click here> so you know what information you will need to register your entire team.
2. The Death Race Relay Division will only be accepting entries of teams as a whole (one entity). Team entry fees are as listed above. Once you have selected the team size that you wish to enter, that cannot subsequently be increased. Also if you subsequently wish to decrease the number of people on the team, there will be no refund for dropping to a smaller sized team.
3. Payments will only be accepted, for the full team on-line through PayPal. If you, as Team Captain, don't have an account, get one and ensure you have sufficient room on your credit card to pay the race registration fee. As the Team Captain, you will need to organize your team and payment.
4. There will be no refund of race registration fees under any circumstance. You enter the Death Race with total commitment.
5. Once you have selected a Team Name there will be no changes to the Team Name under any circumstances.
6. If a racer on you team is unable to participate, Team substitutions will be permitted using the Team Line-Up Change Form (opening May 1st). Also, if your team leg assignments need to be adjusted, (Leg 1 runner wants to switch with Leg 2 runner etc) you can do so via the Team Line-Up Change Form. An administration fee will be charged for such changes according to the following schedule:
May 1 to June 30 - $10
July 1 to July 21 - $25
July 22 to Thursday before the Race - $50
Changes on Race Weekend Friday - $150 (we cannot guarantee that this last minute change in the line-up will be accurately reflected in the preliminary results. Please make your changes as early as you can before the Race, or better yet get organized and stick with your original line up)
7. Team changes are entirely the Team’s responsibility. You must find your own substitution or assign one or more of your runners to do multiple legs if your team falls short. Such changes must be submitted via the Team Line-Up Change Form, subject to the admin charges listed above.
8. If you submit a Team Line-Up Change Form, we cannot guarantee that you will get the T-shirt you requested.
9. It is expected that the Team Captain (or designate) present to the Race Kit Pick Up on Friday before the race, on behalf of the team and pick up the entire Team’s race kits. Government picture ID (such as a driver’s license) is required to pick up your race kits.
10. All teams must submit a complete set of hardcopy signed <waivers>, one for each runner on the team, in exchange for receiving the race kit. The Team Captain or designate will present to Race Kit Pickup the Friday of the Race Weekend with the set of signed waivers. No waivers, no Race Kit, no Race. (The Race Kit has the timing device, racer numbers, relay coin, T-shirts and an assortment of goodies). If you do not have the waivers with you, you will be sent to the back of the line to fill out a waiver and you will be left scrambling to gather the full team set together. Avoid trouble, come prepared.
2012 Registration for Kids and Soloists is essentially the same as 2011. However, registration fees will only be accepted on-line through PayPal. Also, all racers must present with a hardcopy signed waiver at Race Kit Pickup the Friday of the Race Weekend.
We anticipate that the Death Race will fill up quickly after registration opens. The Kids Race is limited to 350 runners and the Adult Race to 1500 runners. Have your stuff together so you can be quick at the keyboard. Let the Race begin!
