IL: Wolf Moon 2024 Monte Carlo Tour Rally

(Rescheduled from Jan. 26 because of flooded roads. Teams that registered for Jan. 26 and planning to run Feb. 24 do not have to re-register. Team information will carry over to Feb. 24.)

This St. Louis Region, SCCA, Wolf Moon 2024 is an evening Monte-Carlo-style tour and social event of about 60 miles similar to the Region’s Tulips by Night and Tulips Redux road rallies. Expect paved Madison County, IL, county roads, easy-to-follow tulip diagrams for route instructions, and several GPS checkpoints.

We will have Check-in at 5PM, Safety Check at 545P, and the first car departs at 601PM.

The Wolf Moon 2024, will have a limited field of 20 teams. There is only pre-registration available for this event and you’ll find more details at Motorsportreg. We start from the Troy Park & Ride and will end at DeCamp Station Roadhouse on historic Route 66 (today, Illinois 4) outside Staunton, Ill. DeCamp Station has been a stop on Route 66 since the highway was established in 1926. Over its 98-year history, DeCamp has served as a speakeasy, gangster hangout, brothel, dance hall, tourist camp/motor hotel, and local restaurant/tavern. Today, it is a classic neighborhood sports bar as well as a popular local venue that hosts summertime softball and volleyball leagues and tournaments. It is also a celebrated member of the Illinois Route 66 Scenic Byway program and has been recognized for its preservation efforts by the National Park Service’s Route 66 Preservation Program.

The SCCA Detroit Region’s rally page has an excellent summary of the Richta system, especially its Competitor App. Visit http://drscca.org/rally/using-the-richta-competitor-app. It’s is worth your time.

Good things to know–inclement weather: Should Mother Nature turn against us and send significant snow or ice on rally weekend, we will reschedule the event. We would make any such decision before noon Feb. 23 and inform you via this website, email, or a telephone call.

Good things to know–winter driving: As with any winter trip, it’s a good idea to equip yourself with a winter emergency kit, if you have not done so already. The National Weather Service and AAA offer sugestions about what to include in such a kit.
