A Deposit (to be kept on file) is required for 2006
for our new state of the art timing system.
The Canadian Death Race will be utilizing a
new state of the art timing technology for 2005 that includes the use of
specialized computer timing sticks for each runner on course. This
system will vastly improve our safety, timing, tracking and reporting
abilities. Because the equipment is costly, a deposit of $50 will
be required for each timing stick. (One per soloist or one per team -
teams sticks will be passed to each subsequent relay racer at the
appropriate leg transfer stations.) The timing stick stores the users
information so that our timing experts can keep track of your progress
throughout the race. If the timing stick is lost, the runner will
not be able to complete the race and the user/team will be
disqualified. If a racer is disqualified or surrenders prior to
the finish of the race, their stick must be surrendered along with their
Death Race coin. Please send either a postdated cheque
for August 1st, or, if you wish, your credit card information and
authorization via fax or mail for the deposit. (See printable form below
for submission information.) Your cheque will not be cashed
and your credit card will not be charged and will be held on file until
Monday, August 1st, 2006. In the event that a timing device is not
returned during or at the end of the race, only then, will your cheque
be cashed, or the credit card be processed.
 A timing stick
is shown in action as a racer punches his stick (card) into the timing
station (box) for recording. The station beeps when the information
is received and recorded, and the racer moves on. Note that the
timing stick is easily fastened to the racer's finger using
velcro.
 Each timing stick is
numbered and assigned to an individual racer or team and contains all of
their essential timing information.
