CA Cal Club First Friday Niter Social Road Rally
January 3 All day
Join Rallymaster Joanna Weissen for the last FFN by the Cal Club Region Santa Monica Sports Car Club as they go on hiatus. Last year’s January FFN, the rally will be a tour (no traps) focusing on Christmas light displays, which were spectacular, with many lights and a few massive displays. It will likely run in Burbank and/or Glendale and likely finish at the IHOP on Glendale Ave in Glendale.
This rally uses the Richta GPS Competitor app for timing and scoring. The app is FREE and easy to use on any GPS-enabled smartphone. It is available on the App Store or Google Play Store or at https://richtarally.com/. There is no need for additional timing equipment or clocks—your Official Time shows in the app! Download the FREE Richta Scoreboard app, if you want to see all the scores at the Finish.
Please try to register online at www.msreg.com/FFN012025. If that doesn’t work for you, you can still register in person at the start of the SMSCC events. However, it helps the organizers print adequate copies of the route instructions and confirm the numbers for the ending location. We start at the Bank of America rear lot in Mission Hills. In-person registration opens at 7:00 p.m., with the first car out at 8:01 p.m. There is a beginner/Richta meeting at 7:40 p.m.
Is your usual rally partner not available for this FFN? Let Jeanne know, and she will attempt (with no guarantees) to match you up with another rallyist. Contact Jeanne at ean21@juno.com.
After the January FFN, we will switch to the SMEMSS rallies — Santa Monica Even Month Second Saturday rallies. Yes, daytime! Please join us for these daytime rallies on the second Saturday morning of even months (February, April, and so on). It’s amazing what you can see along the routes in the daylight. They will start at the same place as the FFNs, the Bank of America rear lot in Mission Hills. In-person registration will open at 9:00 am, and the first car will be out at 10:01 am, and it will take approximately 2 to 3 hours to complete. For a list of the dates, go to www.smscc.org and click “Next Day Rally.” We will be posting more information on MotorSportReg soon.
