Title: The amazing, risky, race
Post by: Xero on October 05, 2011, 08:38
Ready for a race? Test your biking and parachute skills? Well lets see how fast you are.

What you will need:
1 Dinghy
1 Mountain Bike
1 Parachute
You must be in Convoy (Which will be given before the race)

Prizes:
First Place: $200,000
Second Place: $100,000
Third Place: $50,000
(There may be fourth place if more then 15 people show up)

How the race will go:



1. The race will start on top of the tallest building in Los Santos. You'll need a ride to get there. (There will be staff to fly you there if needed)
2. You will jump off the building after the countdown. This will also help us determine who's in the race.
3. When you hit the ground you'll jump on a bike and race to the house in Happyland. You'll need to pass through the house gates (Probably jump it if you can to save time).
4. You'll then jump into the water and, if you have a dinghy, and race back to the convoy leader, in which you will need to find the leader* on the map.

*The convoy leader could be anywhere by this time, so if you're constantly looking for him/her while you're racing, you'll probably lose speed. The leader could be on land or water by the time you reach Happyland so make sure you don't lose your bike or dinghy. The convoy leader will not move either from their position by the time the first racer makes it to Happyland.

Staff will be watching your every move, so don't try cheat and don't respawn near the leader as one or two staff will be following the leader at all times by air to prevent cheating. No complaining cause you got run over either by some noob as you know this race will be hazardous. Date has been extended +3 hours from original time of 7PM GMT, now it 10PM GMT. Current time now displayed.

Good luck contestants. This race brought to you buy Millionaires Inc.

No once you have started the race by the time you get to Happyland the Leader will stay in one spot waiting for everyone.

Event was a success. It started out rough as some contestants were either killed by the fall or by the nearby helicopters. Roughly 12 people participated. First place went to Sveki, second to viky and [T1S]nickdodd finished third.


Stay tuned for the next events! Remember, all members participating in the next event will have to join the Millionaires Inc club in order to participate. Thank you everyone that came out!
