In case you aren't aware, every November the
12 hour Turkey Burn AR serves as the Pangea AR championship race for the year.
All season long, Elite teams from both divisions (Premier & Open) attempt to accumulate 60 points in the
Point Series in order to qualify for championship consideration.
A few select races are weighted heavier based on length. The
72 hour Sea 2 Sea AR is worth triple points meaning the winners automatically achieved the 60 points needed. Races longer than 10 hours, such as the
30 hour Atomic AR and the
18 hour Nocturnal Challenge AR, are worth double points. This has lead to some interesting scenarios and is designed to reward teams that seek out the ultimate adventures. Without further ado, let's breakdown the series scene as it is today...
