"Official" PC Derby rules

Post by sigurd »

Hi,

I was reading somwehere, but can't remember where, about an effort to standardize the set of rules governing a PC Derby. Does anyone have a link or ideas?

Thanks.

So far, haven't noticed anything other that the normal "noise". It is a common sentiment, and every holder has a set of "perfect" rules to suggest at that standard.

For some more comments and requirements, see http://derbytalk.com/viewtopic.php?t=37 ... ight=rules

Hello from Santee CA.

I hope by PC you mean "Pine Car" and not "Politically Correct". We have too much to worry about running a race already.

Who would create those standardized rules? The dozen or so parent organizations that sponsor derbies? The dozens of companies that make derby kits and accessories?
