TX: Tick Tock RoadRally
May 1, 2021 @ 10:30 AM – 4:00 PM
You’re invited to the Tick Tock Rally, an SCCA Regional Time-Speed-Distance (TSD) tour rally over paved backroads of Denton and Cooke counties. A precision driving event at fun speeds to (re)introduce TSD rallying to the Texas Region. This will be a Monte Carlo-style rally. Course following is easy with mileage on every instruction and a sign reference, if there is one. We score you on how close to the perfect time you arrive at checkpoint locations along the route. No calculations involved. We tell you where every control is and the perfect time to arrive there. All you have to do is arrive at that time. Get one point for each second early or late; a low score wins.
It is not a speed or racing contest. You will be timed at the checkpoints by means of the Richta GPS smart phone app. Scores are automatically reported to the Rallymaster. No score sheet to fill out. We will send you information on it after you pre-register. Also, we plan to conduct a Rally School via Zoom (currently scheduled for April 25th) to help prepare for the rally. It’ll include a short test rally that you can run to see how the app works before rally day. We encourage you to attend the School.
The rally will begin and end at HL Brockett Elementary School, with Registration beginning at 1030A. The first car leaves out at 12P + your car number. The route, laid out by Rallymaster Liz Witt, is approximately 87 miles, with two rest breaks along the course where you can get fast food as well.
Registration will be on Hagerty Motorsportreg.com, with the entry fee of $25 for SCCA Members and $35 for Weekend Members. Three classes: First-timer (neither crew member has run a rally before), Novice (two rally trophies or less), General, and Master (this is an optional class: no trophies).
In light of the current COVID-19 situation, every attempt will be made to minimize the risks of exposure to the virus. New processes and procedures have been developed and will be put into place to support this objective. You should not have to get out of your car. All of the registration materials and rally materials needed for the event will be available online or sent to you via email, and can be completed and returned ahead of the event or, if applicable, you can print them and bring them with you. In some cases (e.g., Minor Waivers that have not been notarized) we will witness you signing the completed form. We will also send you the General Instructions and Route Instructions to print out at home.
Ultimately, it is your responsibility to assess the risk to you, comply with applicable COVID-19 guidelines and make the decision on whether or not to participate.
