Sorry to slow the fun by making you wade through legal-ese, but
when you get to an ORC-sponsored event, you'll be asked to sign the following
release waiver. I'm sad that we can't take personal responsibility for granted,
but in this increasingly litigious society, I think a disclaimer is a necessary
precaution. It should also remind us that this is serious business and that we
all have to be responsible for our own actions. If you need a spotter on a
trail, ASK. If you feel uncomfortable spotting for someone else, SAY SO. Open
communication is the only way to have a safe, fun event where everyone can
learn.
Above all, we want to have fun and enjoy our hobby. If we keep that in mind,
we won't have any problems. The trails we are on may range from 2WD high
clearance roads to extreme trails that *will* likely cause damage. Work with
your trail leader to ensure that your skills and your vehicle are up to the
trail you have chosen. Communicate!
Please mail the Isuzu ORC Staff if
you have questions or comments about this page.
