IMPORTANT UPDATE

 

CODRA Paisley 400 Info:

Dear fellow racers, participants and fans,

It is our sincere regret to inform you that due to environmental concerns raised by an outside organization located here in Oregon, the 2010 Paisley 400 is being postponed.

This delay in the race date stems from concerns raised by the environmental/desert conservation group that BLM has not completed satisfactory requirements and administrative studies within our operations area.

We have met with both BLM, and the group, and have determined that the requirements for all related studies and environmental assessments must be met prior to our obtaining a permit for the event. These requirements, public comment periods and such will put us beyond the original planned date. Therefore the decision to postpone has been made. This was an extremely tough decision for us to make, however it has not discouraged us and we think it will be for the best.

Due to our increasingly shortened time line constraints, the necessary time for BLM to complete all of their administrative work and required studies, this leaves both BLM and CODRA with too little time to have a successful event for you, the racers.

Given these circumstances and the time frames involved with CODRA and BLM, we have made the decision that postponing the event 1 year will allow for all administrative procedures to be completed. This will also ensure that CODRA and BLM cover all requirements for putting an off road racing event like this together.

 We view this minor setback as an opportunity to make sure that the event will be a great success and allow CODRA a complete planning time frame. This will likely increase attendance, and most importantly your enjoyment of the event!

We also feel that this will create an opportunity to gather more support for the people of Paisley, their businesses and most importantly the School by having an increase in attendance.

We are continuing in planning the event and having outings to gather more information about the area and possible course options.

Yours Truly,

Jared Ford, Kevin Hescock,

CODRA Staff

Proposed Schedule of Events

FRIDAY JUNE 25th:

Contingency/Tech/Safety Inspections: Starting at 10:00am the race vehicles will start to serpentine around the rows of vendors in the school’s football field and end at the safety inspection area.  After a race vehicle clears tech it will continue to the “show and shine” area of the field.  This will be a great time to meet and greet other racers and mingle with some of the local Paisley residents. After the safety inspections the racer meetings will occur.  Registration will open at 8:00am and continue until 6:00pm.  All racers of record will be required to register in person.

 

During the contingency/safety inspections we will have raffles for sponsored products and possibly a ride in a trophy truck on the race course for one lucky person.

SATURDAY JUNE 26th:

Motorcycles, quads and UTVs will be starting just before sunrise in an order to be determined later.

Just as the last motorcycle, quad, or UTV crosses the half way point of the race course we will start the cars and trucks (most likely around 10:30 am).

SUNDAY JUNE 27th:

We will have the awards ceremony and begin clean-up

More details to come

Bear in mind that I'm still working with SPOT tracking on pricing.  The above pricing includes the $35 cost to rent a spot unit.  Depending on how SPOT wants to do it, they may require that each racer order their own individual unit (excluding teams that currently own SPOTs).  If this is the case than the above fee may be $35 less.
