Giant Snail Races
The obstacle course in the sky at The Eternal, sees a collection of 45 feet tall snails racing through an obstacle course.
It's a laid back casual fun show where you never know what could happen, especially with a different theme each event resulting in great costumes and antics to match.
There are four races per show with the first race for new rookie snails, the next two races are a mix of whoever registers that morning and the final race is the top finishers from the first three races. Spectators follow the action aboard The Magnificent Snail Tracking Self Propelled Grandstands Colored to match the scarf worn by there sections snail.
Every year the Giant Snails raise funds for the American Cancer Society Relay For Life campaign in Second Life. Once a month for about four months RacerX holds a cross country race across over 40 sims using the existing roads across the grid to raise funds and awareness for RFL.
For more background, the races were featured on NPIRL a while back: http://npirl.blogspot.com/2008/03/to-be-giant-snail-or-be-run-over-by-on...
