Rule change for mtv guesses?

I'm thinking something along the lines of a curve like Scrambler had with a 5 gallon bucket, in addition to the reverse and stuff from this year.

I just sent the cup way over the line, and I ran the car so much that I could tell where it would go for both directions. It went between two and three feet to the left for the 300 meter cup line. It went fairly straight on the way back, but it still had enough turn to go back around the obstacle. I was SO glad that there was no penalty for going out of the track... My car is so good (or is that "My competition was so bad..." that the Regions proctor, who found out he was proctoring something 30 minutes before the event started, offered me a third run if I wanted it. I didn't take it. (I figured someone ought follow the rules...
