Subject: Alcan update, 3 weeks to go!

All,

Time flies, we're just over 3 weeks away!  Final 2004 regulations are posted, plus other new links and information:

REGULATIONS:  Significant changes are in red, but these are basic and relate mainly to final DIY control language, a new "Team Award", and the possibility of only 1 entrant in any Ice Race category.  You'll receive printed copies at registration with your route book, but please review them now and ask questions if needed. 

MORE STUFF:  There's a new "Entry form and other documents" link from http://www.alcan5000.com.  This in primarily info for entrants, including forms, a new FAQ, and general advice from Alcan spiritual advisor John Fouse.  More will appear there soon, so bookmark it and check back in a week!

CLASSES:  The entry list now includes class for most cars, if we've guessed wrong please let me know!  The deadline for vehicle class and tire information is 2pm February 17, but we'd like it much sooner if possible.

DRIVER'S MEETING & TECH:  Remains Tuesday February 17th, from 1-4 pm.  Meeting and registration will run from 1-3pm, with tech from 2:30 to 4pm (tech is available again at 8pm, but who wants to find out then that you're missing something?).  The location is 5 miles from rally headquarters, right in them middle of a 10 mile odo check so you don't waste the drive.  Coffee & cookies will be provided, but there's lots of table space so feel free to bring along lunch if you're running late! (the odo check will identify a Quisno's, Majic Dragon, and Starbucks nearby).  Team attendance is required, if one member has a late flight or other conflict please let us know ahead of time.

ARCHIVE:  Miss any of these e-mails?  Don't worry, there's an archive at http://www.alcan5000.com/04wb/

Have a passport or birth certificate?  Bring one or the other!  Crossed the border lately?  We don't require them, but it could save a big hassle...


Regards, and thanks for participating!
