The Cheapskate Cup is not officially affiliated with WMRRA and does not have official rules – it’s a gentleman’s agreement (for some rather loose definition of gentleman). We do have guidelines (and a secret handshake, and more cool stuff which you will learn about if you join us). To race with the Cheapskate Cup all you have to have is an old beat-up Ninja 250, a good sense of humor and a fun loving attitude. Minor financial resources to contribute to the after-race beer fund wouldn’t hurt. We also encourage donations of ludicrous or hopelessly impractical prizes and awards. | The Cheapskate Cup is not officially affiliated with WMRRA and does not have official rules – it’s a gentleman’s agreement (for some rather loose definition of gentleman).
