MVC Routing regex parameter

Question

I have this route set up:

routes.MapRoute(
    "Competition",
    "{comp_id}/Competition/",
    new { controller = "Competition", action = "Index" },
    new { comp_id = @"^[a-zA-Z0-9]{6}$" }
    );

The regex is supposed to allow 6 character competition ids that can have alphanumeric characters and is not case sensitive. What I would like to do is allow the id to be greater than 3 characters long with no restriction in length.

Can someone help me with that?

This is just basic regex. Use {3,} instead of {6} if you mean that it needs to be 3 or more characters, or {4,} if you mean that it has to be greater than 3.
