The first thing you have to do is build the darn thing! You might want to check out this How-to Guide put together by the brilliant Elliot Naess.  (See link on left side.)

Then you have to gain permission to race from the illustrious Konsortium... by filling out this Racer's Registration and Waiver Form. (See links on left side.)

Then if you want to know where you're going... well, you can check out the Kourse by clicking on that link you just passed up.  (See link on the left.)

And then... you might want to figure out your art and pagentry. This is supposed to be the "triathlon of the art world." Get your bribes together... you'll need them to get through the kourse.  (Yes, the link is on the left!) 

And finally, you'll need to READ the rules.  Oh, yes, there are rules!  Guess where the link is? 

One last piece of advice... carry lots of duct tape and remember this race was created by Hobart Brown to show "Adults having fun so that children will want to grow older!"  Good luck!
