CA: SCCA Cal Club First Friday Niter
2023-05-05 19:00 - 22:30 UTC | • Bank of America – Mission Hills, SMSCC FFN Start, 10300 Sepulveda Blvd, Mission Hills, CA, 91345, United States
This Cinco de Mayo, the Santa Monica Sports Car Club will be running the rally initially scheduled for March 3rd, yet was postponed due to weather-related road closures. But you shouldn’t let puns go to waste, so pretend it’s 3/3/2023, grab your favorite Musketeer, and join us for what was supposed to be the 3rd First Friday Niter of the year.

There will be three legs with three stages per leg on this Tour rally of the Sierra Pelona Ridge. There are no traps this month, and plenty of three, er, free zones to enjoy some of the best driving roads the region has to offer. Just make sure you’re on time outside those free zones because the checkpoints are unmarked – kind of like the pre-app days.

This rally uses the Richta GPS Competitor app for timing and scoring, with timing in seconds. This month’s maximum penalty is 60 seconds (1 minute) per checkpoint. The app is FREE and easy to use on any GPS-enabled smartphone. Go to the App Store or Google Play Store, or https://richtarally.com/. There is no need for additional timing equipment or clocks to your Official Time shows in the app!

Also, if you want to see all the scores at the Finish, download the FREE Richta Scoreboard app.

Please try to register online at MotorsportReg.com. This helps us determine how many Route Instructions to print, trophies, etc. If that doesn’t work for you, you can still register in person at the start. We start at the Bank of America rear lot. In-person registration opens at 7:00 pm, with the first car out at 8:01 pm; there is a beginner/Richta meeting at 7:40 pm.

The rally will finish at IHOP, 1225 Truman St., San Fernando, CA 91340. This is close to the start, so it’s a short drive back in case Drivers and Navigators meet at the start location.

Is your usual rally partner not available for this FFN? Let Jeanne know; she will attempt to match you up with another rallyist. Contact Jeanne at ean21@juno.com.

IL: St. Louis Region Tulips by Night
2023-05-05 18:00 - 21:00 UTC | • World Wide Technology Raceway, Madison, IL, 700 Raceway Blvd, Madison, IL, 62060, United States
A St. Louis Region, SCCA, Social Road Rally in conjunction with the St. Louis/Southern Illinois Gateway Sprints MiDiv Majors Weekend, at World Wide Technology Raceway.

Description: Tulips by Night 2023 is an evening Monte-Carlo-style road rally/tour of about 50 miles. We have designed this event with the new/occasional rally team in mind. Expect paved county roads, easy-to-follow tulip diagrams for route instructions, and checkpoint locations identified both by official mileages and official arrival times.

For teams new to rallying, a brief school before the event will explain how to run the event and answer questions a team might have.

Start: World Wide Technology Raceway, Madison, IL.

Finish: The Lucky Rooster Pub & Eatery, 101 W. Main St., St. Jacob, IL 62281.

Size of the field: We are limiting the field to 15 teams.

May 5 check-in and signing of waivers, etc.: 6 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. at World Wide Technology Raceway.

Rally school Q&A : 6:15 PM and the Safety meeting: 6:45 PM and First car departs the start: 7:01 p.m.

First car arrived at finish: Approximately 9 p.m. (We will have a full moon, the Flower Moon, May 5, with sunset at 7:56 p.m. With Mother Nature’s cooperation, it should be a perfect occasion for an evening drive. The Lucky Rooster, which is staying open just for us, has a lovely patio also.)

What you need: a car, a Driver & Navigator, a smartphone or tablet for the Richta GPS Competitor App, a clipboard & calculator, pencils & paper, and a flashlight or map light to read route instructions after sundown—and an inclination to take an evening drive.

Entry fee: $20.00 per team for SCCA Members, $35.00 per team for Non-members.

Other really good things to know–timing and scoring: Tulips by Night 2023 is a TSD (Time-Speed-Distance) event at which you will be timed at several locations along the rally route. We will use the Richta Rally GPS Checkpoint System for timing and scoring. To compete, each participating team will need a smartphone or tablet with active data cellular service (no airplane mode and no wi-fi only devices!) with the Richta Competitor App installed. The app will report your arrival time and leg score to your cellphone or tablet moments after you pass each GPS checkpoint location. For more information about the Richta GPS system visit https://richtarally.com. Also, the SCCA Detroit Region’s rally page has an excellent summary of the Richta system, especially its Competitor App, which you will use. Visit http://drscca.org/rally/using-the-richta-competitor-app. Visiting it is worth your time.

The Texas Region of the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) invites all fellow car enthusiasts to this Spring Paradise Trek in Denton and Wise counties. A Trek is a non-competitive driving event on scenic country roads. There are no questions, puzzles, tricks, traps, or timed controls, just a fun (and stress-free) drive following a pre-determined route using a “convoy style” format. We’ll provide basic route instructions as a backup only. All are welcome, and no prior rally experience is necessary.

We’ll set out from The Horny Toad Café & Bar in Denton, then wind our way on twisty back roads, some of them within the LBJ National Grassland, ending in Paradise, Texas (the town, not the state of mind). We’ll stop for a group picture at one or two sites along the route. For added fun, we plan to stop along the way to visit Eagles Canyon Raceway (ECR), where we can briefly tour the facilities, observe cars on track, and enjoy a quick lunch at the Over the Top Bar & Grill.

Registration/check-in: 10:00 AM to 10:30 AM on Rally Day

Safety Briefing: 10:35 AM

Route: paved roads in Denton, Wise, and (a little corner of) Cooke counties; we may encounter brief stretches of uneven pavement, which may influence your choice of vehicle on Rally Day

Vehicles: Sports Cars, Family Cars, Classic Cars, Antiques, anything with four wheels that’s street-legal is OK in this Rally. Note: speed is not a factor.

There is no requirement for at least two people in each car unless you separate from the group and rely on (backup) route instructions.

Contact rally@texasscca.org if you have a minor child (<18) in the car, as an SCCA Minor Waiver form will need to be signed.

Rally Master: John Poulos

While same-day registration will be allowed, we encourage you to pre-register. To pre-register, click here.

2023-04-23 13:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago) | • BP/McDonald’s – Kentucky Ave, Indianapolis, 4906 Kentucky Avenue, Indianapolis, IN, 46221, United States
The Dogwood Daze Road Rally, sanctioned by the SCCA Indianapolis Region, is a time speed distance rally designed specifically for beginners, but fun for non-beginners as well. This is a Tour-style rally that uses the Richta GPS Competitor App for timing. No tricky route instructions — just follow the instructions given to you. At each restart point you will re-zero your trip odometer and leave at the beginning of the next minute. After you leave the restart point, the App will tell you what time you started. Simply drive a few miles per hours above the speed given in the instructions or you can add the leg time given in your route instructions to the app restart time and you will know the exact time that you need to arrive at the next control. It is quite possible for Novices to score well, and, if you just want a nice drive in the country that ends with food and comradeship, this event provides that as well.

$40/car ($15 discount for SCCA members)

1:00-1:30 PM Registration (waivers and weekend member forms will be in registration packets)

PA: Choose Your Own Citrus Road Rally, Part II Revenge of the Stone Fruit
2023-04-01 09:30 - 17:00 UTC | • Hickory Bridge Restaurant, Orrtanna, PA, 96 Hickory Bridge Rd, Orrtanna, PA, 17353, United States
Inspired by the nationally-known (but in no way affiliated) Lemons Rally, the Choose Your Own Citrus Road Rally, Part II Revenge of the Stone Fruit is designed to provide an enjoyable drive through the countryside while conducting a Scavenger Hunt. This “Rally” is a social event and is not based on accurate time and distance – in fact, each team picks their own route to maximize points the way that suits each team the best. Scoring is based on the ability of the team to use clues to find target locations, while leaving enough time to finding their own way to the finish location in the allotted time frame. Each team will be provided with a packet with rules and instructions on how to post pictures on Instagram to mark way-points and collect points. Someone on your team needs an Instagram account for your team to get points! This is a great opportunity to get younger family members involved in a driving activity. This event will take place rain or shine. Only extreme weather conditions warrant cancellation.

A Road Rally is not a race! OBEY ALL TRAFFIC LAWS. The roads are challenging, sharp curves, steep climbs and wildlife crossings all combined with an unknown route. The driver and navigator must work together to stay alert while looking for clues. Speed does not improve the score. Bring water for the team, and fuel up when you can there isn’t any sweep car…it’s up to the team to make it back

MN: Minnesota Valley Winter Rally
2023-03-25 15:00 - 20:30 UTC | • Sticks Tavern, Chaska, MN, 6940 Dahlgren Rd, Chaska, MN, 55318, United States
The course for this SCCA Land o’ Lakes Region is mostly unpaved roads traversing the Minnesota River Valley. By late March the roads could be dry, mud, snow or any combination. Be prepared.

Sunset at 7:32 PM so part of the Minnesota Valley Winter Rally will be at night but mostly daylight. External night lighting will not be required but it would’t hurt on older cars, interior lights will be very useful.

We advise bringing winter gear (boots, hat, gloves, etc) and a blanket in case you have car trouble. A small shovel or two would be a good idea if it is still snowy.

Philosophy

This event will not have nearly as many timing points (TP) as others we have done. We have located the TP at traditional locations used when we had to have humans work. We have thrown in a few extra at places we always wanted to put one as well. The first section we are calling the prairie stage. It’s one long stage of about 25 miles with no links. The terrain is rather flat with the interest coming via many 90 degree turns followed by a TP. From there we head down to the Minnesota River starting with the famous Salisbury Hill control before ending the first part in Henderson where you can exchange stories at the Shell station.

From there we follow the traditional course through the tributary valleys. After a brief run up the Minnesota River Scenic Byway before one last stage before ending at Sticks.

MVWR uses the MiRally GPS timing and scoring system. The advantage being contestants get to use the Rabbit Rally Digital Roadbook and rally computer on their smartphone and or tablet. You should enter the event in class G as E, L & S are legacy classes for people using old equipment and timkeeping methods.

We use the Telegram app of group communications. Telegram invite link
