***Detailed outline***

If a Scout BSA chooses to race, they should register as an individual racer and pay at registration through Tentaroo. .

If a Scout BSA volunteers *for the day*, they should register as a volunteer racer through Tentaroo. They must check in as a volunteer with the PWD pit crew upon their morning arrival, then they can race FOR FREE at day’s end! They MUST register through Tentaroo to race.

All participating Scouts BSA must carefully read and abide by the 2023 PWD rules posted on the webpage linked above with ONE EXCEPTION – their car does not have to be built this year. They are welcome to use a car from their Cub days, modified to meet 2023 race requirements.

We are looking forward to watching our Scouts BSA relive their Cub days for trophies and bragging rights! Boogity, boogity,boogity – LET’S GET RACIN’
