Race/LA Overview
TRAVEL is by car, on foot, and occasionally by other methods. Race/LA may occur anywhere within Los Angeles County, usually covering between 30 and 60 driving miles from start to finish. Players will not know in advance exactly where they will be traveling.
 CLUES are in sealed envelopes at each location, and may be photographs, hints, puzzles, specific directions or some combination of these. Teams often have to perform a certain task before receiving their next clue.
ONE WAY clues contain a task that only one member of each team will perform.
INTERSECTION clues give teams a choice of two different tasks, with different advantages and disadvantages to each.
MERGE clues force two teams to temporarily team up to complete a task together.
 FASTLANE cards allow teams to skip one location.
GRIDLOCK cards allow you to delay another team by five minutes.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS: Players should be in reasonably good physical condition. Race/LA is a day-long, physically active event. Teams should be able to think and act quickly, and work well together.
COST is $85 per person ($170 per team).
LENGTH OF THE RACE is between 6 and 7 hours, beginning at 9:30 am.
MONITORS are an integral part of Race/LA, and often have as much fun as players. Monitors are stationed at locations throughout the race. To read more about Race/LA Monitors, click here.
