Sculptures must be human-powered.

 No stored energy, motors, electricity (unless it’s human generated for spectacularness and stored and used at the event) no pushing, no pulling, no walking. Sculptures must have wheels or moveable legs and be able to move forward, stop, and turn.  Towing is only allowed IF the vehicle is pulling something sculpture related. 

You must be able to keep up with a 3 mph minimum speed

iInstructors will walk next to your sculpture, if you can’t keep up, you can’t participate.  Sculptures must stay on the course with the escorts.  Those that detour for any reason other than break down will be disqualified.   Finally, pilots that begin the event wiht a sculpture must stay with  the sculpture.  No rotating!

Be prepared for obstacles.  

The course will traverse urban streets including inherent and man made obstacles, a hilly and/or sandy section, cobble stones, and a mud pit finish- No immersive water obstacles yet! Be prepared for a variety of obstacles – could include foam, swinging obstacle courses, challenges for pilots to complete, or other new and creative ways to test your stamina and spirit.

Size Limits

Sculptures must be no larger than 8' 6" (102 inches) wide, 12' high, and 18' long and must be able to be operated legally according to Pennsylvania motor vehicle code.

BRAKES!

Sculptures must be able to stop safely and quickly, sculptures that do not pass the brake safety check will not be allowed to compete.

All pilots must wear approved helmets.  

Please bring your own.  Missing or forgotten helmets will mean you cannot ride and no one wants that.  

Safety First!

Sculptures must not pose any direct danger to anything near it, no open flame, no pointy appendages. The pilot must be able to escape quickly and safely in the event that it’s necessary.   All Participants must be sober while operating their vehicle. There will be plenty of time after the course is complete for revelry!  The pilots and pit crew must be in team appropriate costumes.
