New since 2006, vehicles going up with passengers, and paying extra for this,
must have two auto passes to bring down two runners (formerly one pass was
sufficient).
Commemorative
yellow ChampionChips will be available for purchace again this year. If you've ever considered
purchasing your own ChampionChip, now is a great time. In conjunction with the
Mt. Washington Road Race, we will be able to sell this nifty chip to you for
only $30 (regularly $35 and up). Those of you who buy one of these up front (or
who already own their own ChampionChip) and use it in the race, will receive a
$2 discount on the entry fee.
You may use this chip in any ChampionChip event anywhere in the
world. And just think, when you get to the finish line, you don’t even have to
remove the chip if you own it!
If you don’t wish to become a ChampionChip owner, a rental chip will be provided
for you and you’ll need to return it back at the bottom of the mountain in the
event tent. If you forget to return it, lose it, or just decide to keep it, your
credit card will be charged $35 for the chip and service fees. To avoid this, you
MUST return the chip at the race in the tent.
THE BLACK RENTAL CHIPS CANNOT BE USED AGAIN,
SO BE SURE TO
RETURN THEM AT THE RACE TENT.
