LA: Red River Region Gimmick Road Rally

Do you want to do something fun with your car that doesn’t involve speed and won’t cost you much money? For the first time in over a decade, the Red River Region is holding a road rally. Mark your calendars for Sunday, February 20th. We’ll gather at the old VF Outlets Mall in Arcadia at 9:00 am.

As long as it’s registered, licensed, and road-worthy, any vehicle may be used. Each team must have at least a Driver and a Navigator. One of them must be an SCCA member — either an Annual Member or a Weekend Member, and everyone else in the vehicle needs to be at least a Trial Member. You’ll need to show your Driver’s license and proof of insurance at Registration. You’ll also need something to write with and a clipboard or some other solid object to use as a ‘desk.’

A rally is a non-speed event, driven on regular roads and obeying all traffic laws. The object is to see how close you can follow directions and how well you can answer questions along the way. You’ll be assigned a number at Registration, and your starting mileage will be recorded.

Following a short Drivers’ meeting, at which you’ll be given the route directions, you’ll be sent out at two-minute intervals. Your starting time will be recorded. When you return, your arrival time and ending mileage will be recorded. You’ll also turn in your answer sheet.This will be a very simple ‘gimmick’ rally designed to introduce you to rallying and see if there’s enough interest and participation to re-start the active rally program that we used to have. It’s a great way to have some fun with your car when we’re not autocrossing.
Entry fees: $10 for SCCA Members and $20 for Weekend Members
