WI: Milwaukee Spring Scamper Car Rally
April 2, 2023 @ 9:45 AM – 4:00 PM
Come join us for the Spring Scamper Car Rally in Madison, Wisconsin. This 120 mile, 4 hour time-speed-distance (TSD) rally will take you through the country roads southwest of Madison. You and your rally partner will enjoy the marvelous roads that are fun to drive and the great scenery on this SCCA Milwaukee Region rally. This is a “Tour” type rally, so there are no tricks or traps. The route instructions are easy to follow and the challenge is to arrive at each checkpoint at the correct time. An SOP class is provided for contestants who do not want to calculate or do any math.
The rally course, by Rallymaster Jim Crittenden, is all new for 2023. You’ll explore new roads as you follow the clues and try to arrive at each checkpoint at exactly the right time.
We’ll be using the Richta GPS checkpoint app system. The Richta GPS checkpoint app will run on your smartphone, will record your arrival time at each checkpoint and then report your leg score immediately to you. No more waiting until the rally is over to see your score! You will need to bring a smartphone in order to run this rally.
This rally is a charity fund raiser for Best Friends Animal Society. All profits will go to support their animal rescue work. Following their motto “Help Save Them All,” Best Friends works with animal rescue organizations around the country to find “furever homes” for thousands of homeless animals. You can read about their great work at www.bestfriends.org.
Entry fee: $35/car or $45/car if neither person is an SCCA member. Online registration is through www.msreg.com/springscamper2023
