The Buildoff will run from January 1st, 2007 - May 26th, 2007
As of right now, due to the limited number of people signing up, there will only be 2 categories to start off:
Fighters and Mini Fighters
To be eligible for the mini fighter category: the bike must have come with an engine 200cc or less from the manufacturer.
If we get more people to sign up, we will continue to break things down into more categories, so no one is up against too many other bikes. In the end, we would like to have each bike in a category with no more than 10-15 other bikes.
$500-$10,000 total cost of bike AND mods at fair market value
We have devised a formula that inputs the total cost of the the build into the mix...
Basically... if you spent a ton, you get points deducted, and if you spend very little, you get points added.
This way, if we only have 10 people in with all different bikes, and all different build costs, we can still have some competiton.
The formula only works for bikes between $500-$10,000 but literally, a $500 bike would have just as much chance of winning as a $10,000 bike!!! The key here is "Doing the best with what you've got to work with."
Bikes will be judged by the members on 10 categories:
ChinaSteve has generously offered to sponsor the buildoff with some of his products, we have some decals to toss in, and we are currently seeking additional sponsors.
