Night of 4-Wheel Terror 34 Annual Arizona Rough Rider’s Spook Rally!

Night of 4-Wheel Terror
34th Annual Arizona Rough Rider’s Spook Rally!
October 24th, 25th, & 26th
“What’s A Spook Rally?” you ask.
The ARR Spook Rally is a weekend of 4-wheelin’ fun in the desert, including a nighttime
4-wheel drive event in which the driver and co-driver(s) attempt to duplicate a specific
course by following cryptic clue sheets. Each clue sheet brings you (hopefully) to a
checkpoint, where (if you survive) you will receive another clue sheet to get you to the next
checkpoint. How many checkpoints are there? Well that would ruin some of the surprise
now, wouldn’t it? The Spook Rally is NOT a speed event, nor is it a night run through the
desert following ribbons. The object (beyond merely surviving it) is to match the official
odometer mileage clocked by our official mileage clocker. (You’ll notice it doesn’t say “accurate”, just
“official”.)
All vehicles participating in the Spook Rally must be insured. Proof of insurance must be sent with your
registration form. Proof of Insurance will be verified at Registration, Vehicle Inspection and Start/Finish.
All drivers must have a valid driver’s license. A copy of your valid driver’s license must be sent with the
registration form. Include a copy of each individual’s valid driver’s license for all those that will be driving
the registered vehicle. All drivers’ licenses will be verified at registration, Vehicle Inspection and
Start/Finish
There is an additional $10.00 fee for those without a Club affiliation with the Arizona State Association of
4 Wheel Drive Clubs (ASA4WDC). This is for temporary member ship to ASA4WDC to be covered
under their insurance policy.
All individuals participating in the Spook Rally Run must sign a waiver. Read and Understand the
Waiver’s thoroughly. In summary: the Release and Waiver means you are participating in the 34th Annual
Spook Rally at your own risk and accept total responsibility for anything that may happen to you.



Adults (18+) must sign “Rally Release and Waiver of Liability, Assumption of Risk and
Indemnity Agreement”
16 to 18 years of age must sign “Minor’s assumption of Risk and Release and Waiver of
Liability”
Zero to 15 years of age must have a “Parental Consent, Release and Waiver of Liability,
Assumption of Risk, and Indemnity Agreement” signed by a parent or legal guardian. This
waiver must be notarized if you are bringing any minor quests.
Your registration will be returned if all the required forms, driver’s license and proof of insurance are not included.
Friday night: When the sun goes down the witches, goblins, and goolies come out! It’s a costume party
around the campfire for kids and adults. Dress up in your best Halloween duds and enjoy socializing with
your fellow victims. Don’t forget to dress up your vehicle. Awards for the best dressed
vehicle will be handed out on Sunday morning. There’s DJ music, and dancing if you’re so
inclined, and trick-or-treating for the young ones, so bring some goodies (enough for the big young ones,
too). There are prizes awarded to the best adult and best kid’s costumes!
Saturday morning: 4-wheel drive games to test your driving skills and sense of humor. There are also
games for the kids. Hot dogs and soft drinks will be available during the games.
Saturday evening: Driver’s meeting to update everyone on any last minute changes, then at sunset, the first
vehicle moves out into the darkening desert. Please, only registered vehicles at checkpoints. For
everyone’s safety, ATVs, Golf Carts, Rhinos (side by sides), etc, will not be permitted in
the Rally, or in the event areas.
Sunday morning: Most everyone should be back in camp. The Arizona Rough Riders will put
on their legendary morning-after breakfast of coffee, juice, eggs, bacon, sausage, and light and
fluffy pancakes! Shoot, some people come from out of state just to have breakfast!!! This
year breakfast is complimentary for all participants. (Participant is defined as each individual
that has submitted a waiver) Immediately following breakfast cleanup, trophies are presented,
and then we raffle off more prizes than most people could fit in their vehicles!
Where is all this fun?: We need the great southwestern desert for this much fun! We’ll be out by Lake
Pleasant just off the Carefree Highway, about half way to Wickenburg. An accurate map will be included
in your registration packet. A large camping area surrounds our base camp. There’s plenty of room for
tents, campers, and motor homes. Remember to Tread Lightly. Take all your trash with you when you
leave. There is no trash removal service in the great southwestern desert.
Entry fee: You’re probably wondering what a splendid weekend of fun in the sun (and under the moon)
like this will cost you. Just $100.00, (if you are not affiliated with a registered Club in the ASA4WDC, an additional
$10.00 is required for temporary membership to ASA4WDC) that includes, a complimentary breakfast on Sunday
morning for those brave enough to eat the Rough Rider’s cooking, 2 raffle tickets, a dash plaque, dancing,
trick-or-treating, entry into the games, and help carrying your raffle loot to your vehicle! AND - New this
year you will also receive one raffle ticket that is good for a registered participant only winch
drawing. This means you have a 1 in 100 chance of winning that winch. And, if you are lucky, by
purchasing additional general raffle tickets you could win 2 winches.
Registration: Since we have to limit the number of vehicles that can go on the Spook Rally to 100, we will
use a lottery system to select the participants and their vehicle position. We will accept entries from now
until the mail comes on September 26, 2014. Remember to include all the new requirements (proof of
insurance, driver’s license and waivers) Then on September 27, 2014, at 10:00AM, we will hold our lottery
at the South end of Desert Breeze Park, 660 N. Desert Breeze Blvd, Chandler, AZ 85226. Due to the
vast number of entries received each year, and to ensure everyone gets a fair and equal
chance, each registration will be entered in the lottery separately. There will be no
grouping of vehicles. Please, no whining. The order in which the entries are drawn will be the
order in which the vehicles start the run. Forms received after September 26th will be tagged onto the far
end of the line, on a first in, first out basis. You are welcome to attend the lottery, but everyone will be
informed by mail of their position and time-out. Cancellation by October 12th will result in a full refund.
After that date the cost of breakfasts will be subtracted from the refund.
Mandatory Equipment: Each vehicle MUST pass a safety inspection prior to leaving on the run. Each
vehicle must be Insured. Proof of insurance must be submitted with your registration form and will be
verified at Registration and Vehicle Inspection. Mandatory equipment includes: A 4-wheel drive vehicle
with a roll bar, roll cage, or permanent hard top; a working CB radio; seatbelts for each vehicle occupant;
headlights; and a working odometer. Highly recommended equipment includes a flashlight; a watch; a pen
or pencil; and a sense of humor.
For your safety, you will be required to demonstrate you have a working CB during Vehicle Inspection.
