I've had 11 people fill out the survey. Thank you!
Please keep them coming if you will be racing at any Ontario/OPRS event this summer.
If you already did it, I've tweaked it slightly to better suit everyone. You are welcome to take it again (not required though), but please use the same name so I can know to delete your first survey.
The contingency program basics:
1. Payout $30 first, $20 second, $10 third per final
2. Class must have 6 scoring entries in race.
3. Racer must have Shellbourne Fuel decal on boat
4. Racer must be TORC member
5. Racer must purchase at least 18L of fuel at event they wish to be eligible, prior 11am Saturday. This is per class you want to be scored in over the weekend. They plan to have prices comparable to pump station prices.
6. Racer must fill in Contingency form during fuel purchase.
Note: Racers with small motors in one class like myself will not use that much fuel... so you can either use it up in something else at home or outside event, at a non-OPRS event, or use it at the next OPRS race... but if you don't purchase at least 18L of fuel at the next OPRS race you are not eligible for award at that particular event. So with the amount of fuel I burn, I would be eligible every other event for example if I don't use my fuel up in other ways. You are not forced to buy fuel at every event or any event. You can also just buy fuel at 10L per event if you want for convenience, you just will not be eligible for the prize money.
That's about it If I remember right.
This translated into value... using 2013 results as an example... this is about $2500 in cash prize money on the table. From an outside source... not racer pockets.
If anyone purchases fuel or recommends them to someone outside the races... please tell them to say TORC sent them. If this goes well, they will also kick back portion of sales into a year end payout.
