Just a note:

We will keep a very active waiting list through mid-October. There is a lot of time before the fall and things change for some teams. We anticipate that approximately 4 teams will drop for one reason or another, and then be replaced by teams on the waiting list. This team changeover is about what happens each fall.

We also have one spot for a pre-rookie to drive our twin. If no pre-rookies enter the event, then that space would be converted to an open veteran spot.

So if you are interested in Ramp Riot 2008, please Continue to Register!

Thanks for all of your support!

To All Ramp Riot Teams:

We now have 5 teams on our waiting list.

If you currently hold a spot and your plans have changed please let us know so that we can free up that spot. I would like to give the teams on the waiting list an answer as soon as possible.

Special Request (NJ Teams Only)
It has come to our attention that there is a popular long weekend for NJ Teachers which coincides with Ramp Riot Weekend. Please review your calendar and make sure your team is able to attend. We did receive a cancellation from one team that did not realize the conflict. Hopefully everyone on the list is still able to attend.


Our goal is to stabilize the list by September 26th, so that we can notify waiting list teams and start printing various media items.

We are all looking forward to seeing everyone on November 8th.

Best of luck to everyone this Fall.
