When: October 17, 2009 at 10AM.

Format: Two rounds of 18 holes, one throw per hole per player.

Course layout: Holes are generally between 100 and 200 feet.

Entry fee: $25

Player package: Two Discraft prototype discs, plus a SuperColor mini and a Discraft hat. A $55 value!

Registration: Field is limited to 25 players (register early). Pre-registration is required. Limited slots will be available for registration after September 28th. Download registration forms here http://discgolfacerace.com/downloads/registration.pdf. PM me for address to mail regisration.

Rules of play: Players are required to use the player package discs, and only these discs. If a disc is lost, the player has the option of using the second disc from the package. Only one throw per player per hole. All players should have their own scorecards and mark "A" for aces and "M" for holes on which they hit metal.
After all players in the group have thrown, discs are picked up and the group moves directly to the next tee. Players keep their scorecards for round two, using the next line on the card to record the round.
The player with the most aces after 36 holes is declared the winner. In case of ties, the number of metal hits is used as a tie breaker. If a tie persists, a closest to the pin contest is then used to determine the event winner.

Prize package: Grand prize is a Discraft merchandise package, including a bag and ten premium discs.

Optional Event: Casual round to follow Ace Race

In ace races, do shots that hit the ground before hitting metal (skip shots or shots that scoot across the ground then hit the pole) count as a metal shot?

I assume.

BTW - Do you know a count total yet. I'm wavering if I'm going to sign up or not. Does sound like fun.

Just sign up already. It's going to be a lot of fun I think and if you win you can give me the bag for my birthday. :)

There have not been a whole lot of pre-registrations yet. However I just put word out recently. The event is capped at 25. On September 28, I will order a minimum of 15 bags regardless of the number of pre-registrations.

Can't speak for other TDs, but at mine they will count.
