Rules:
- Vehicles are limited to 2-person Mechano-hogs. Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth and Grand Expedition Yak have been disqualified due to a speed advantage.
- Flying 2-person mounts e.g. Sandstone Drake, Heart of the Nightwing are NOT permitted;
- Each 2-person team consists of a driver and a co-driver (map reader);
- Paladins and Death Knights may not be drivers due to speed bonuses. They may be co-drivers only;
- Drivers must be level 40+ and have learned the maximum land speed riding skill;
- Any driver or co-driver under level 40 may attract unwanted Desolace pests, such as buzzards, hyenas, and basilisks. This is part of the entertainment, and race management takes no responsibility for unexpected deaths during the race;
- Race teams must follow the guidance of the race signage at all times. Raid markers will be used to help mark the course;
- Race teams must undertake the ‘pace lap’ which is a demonstration lap to ensure that everyone understands the course. When everyone is back, the actual race will begin;
- The race consists of 5 laps of the circuit (see map link). Each lap takes approximately 5 minutes to complete;
- The race course includes obstacles such as bones, rocks, and water courses. This is intentional. Navigate them as best you can.
