Introduction. The Company hosts, operates
and maintains an interactive game on the Internet that
captures the excitement of racing, called "Runnin' 3 Wide"
("Contest") located at http://fantasygames.sandboxplus.com/2005/splash/fantasy_nascar/runnin3wide.asp
Object of the game. Participants get to
choose a Runnin' 3 Wide driving team consisting of six
professional racing drivers each week, within the constraints
of the salary cap. Every week you will receive fantasy points
for your drivers' performances in actual pro races. The total
of all six drivers' fantasy points will be your team's points
for that week. All weekly scores will be added together for
your final score. Your goal is to earn as many fantasy points
as you can over the course of the regular season, starting
February 19, 2006 and ending on November 19, 2006. There are
two limitations on driver selection. First, participants can
only select drivers that are on Runnin' 3 Wide Driver Roster
(the "Roster"). Not every professional Racing driver will be
listed on the Roster, and some drivers may be added during the
Contest period. Second, each participant has 50,000,000 Runnin' 3 Wide dollars to use initially to purchase drivers.
Points System. The Contest scores all
picks exclusively on the basis of the Runnin' 3 Wide Points
System (the "RWPS"), and there is no subjective evaluation
regarding the worth or value of any game. Each driver on a
participant's team will generate points for the participant in
the Runnin' 3 Wide Point System. The RWPS calculates a score
by giving points equal to the value assigned to the game by
the participant. The Points are then totaled to generate a
participant's Total Score ("TS"). A participant's TS is the
basic number that SandboxPlus.com uses to rank all
participants in the game.
Salary Cap. The basic strategy is to pick Players to form a Team that scores the most Fantasy Points (FP), based on the scoring system described below under “Scoring”. Entrants must pick players at every slot. Players selected by entrants earn FP based on the actual statistics of such Players throughout the Game Period. See “Scoring” for further details.
Like a stock market, the value of Players fluctuates based on supply and demand for such Players. Real-life performance of Players does not have a direct effect on the value of the Players, although it may have an effect on the decision of Game entrants to buy or sell the Players. The change in a Player’s value is based solely on the number of purchases and sales of the Player by Game entrants.
Entrants can earn Runnin' Three Wide Dollars (RTWD) by buying and selling Players (“Trades”). Buying Players low and selling high will increase the RTWD the entrant has to acquire other Players. For example, if you buy a player for 5 million RTWD (that amount is taken from your Cash Left), and sell that player for 10 million RTWD, you've then made 5 million extra RTWD to buy players with.
Line-up Changes. Entrants can make unlimited buys of Players before the first roster freeze at 11:30AM (Eastern Standard Time) on February 19, 2006 (the “Initial Freeze”). After the Initial Freeze, entrants have until the start of that weekend's race to make Trades to be effective for that weekend's race. The Trade window is closed down, meaning Trades cannot be made once that deadline has passed, and it will re-open at 1:00PM (Easter Time) on the Tuesday after each weekend. After the Initial Freeze, entrants are limited to THREE (3) trades per week.

Timing. The Runnin' 3 Wide Contest runs
from February 19, 2006 through November 19, 2006 (the "Contest
Period"). Participants can enter the Runnin' 3 Wide Contest at
any time from February 19, 2006 to November 19, 2006. A
participant's Runnin' 3 Wide selections start to accrue points
toward all Runnin' 3 Wide Contest prizes on the date of the
game (February 19, 2006). Entries made before the start of the
game on February 19, 2006 will be effective for the Contest
Period. A participant can enter the Runnin' 3 Wide Contest
only once, but is entitled to change selections throughout the
Contest Period until the scheduled kick-off of the race on
February 19, 2006. Selection changes to the Runnin' 3 Wide
Contest are not effective if they are made later than the
scheduled kick-off of the game on February 19, 2006 during the
Contest Period.
PRIZE DESCRIPTION AND IDENTITY OF WINNERS.
Cash prizes will be awarded at the end of the
Contest. Prizes will be awarded on the basis of a
participant's TS. At the end of the Contest Period, each
participant's TS will be individually aggregated and the
following prizes will be awarded to the participants with the
top 10 TS in the scoring system:
- 1st place: $500.00
- 2nd place: $250.00
- 3rd place: $100.00
- 4th - 10th place: Sandbox Sweatshirts
If more than one participant has the same final score, a
winner will be determined at random.
Estimated total
retail value for all merchandise prizes is $1,200. Prizes
are not transferable or assignable. Taxes on prizes are solely
the responsibility of the winner. Odds of winning depend on
entrant's ability to choose the winners from each game
throughout the Contest, and on the total number of eligible
entries received by the Company.
On or about December 5, 2006, the top 10 winners (the "Prize Winners") will be

entry. Prize Winners will have up to ten (10) days from the
