The effort organization and coordination of BODA is exemplary.

The purpose of the event is to have a safe & nice off-road day out with fun & competition in a friendly environment at the outskirts of Bangalore.
Keeping the above in mind, the rules for participation are given below. (NOTE: these rules are by no means exhaustive & all decisions of the event Marshalls will be binding on the participants)
• All participants shall sign the Disclaimer and Liability Form prior to participating.
• The Marshalls shall be the only officials to have authority to issue penalties, awards, reprimands, or disqualifications.

• Participants must ensure that they have all the legal work/papers of their vehicle in place. This includes Driving license, RC, Insurance, Emission Check etc.
• Participants shall not move or alter any course markers. If during the event course markings are removed or broken by participants (pulling off course for vehicle repairs, etc.), the participant is required to replace the damaged, broken, or removed course markings BEFORE proceeding ahead.
