NJ: Highlands Spring Car Trek
2022-03-27 10:00 - 15:00 UTC | • High Marques Motors, 169 Washington Street, Morristown, NJ, 07960, United States
Did you know that the mountains of the New Jersey Highlands used to be higher than the Himalayas? Have you ever wondered about the geological history of the beautiful state we are lucky enough to call home? The diverse natural beauty of the Highlands and the patterns of human settlement are determined by its geology, whose beginnings were dramatic and violent and subsequently sculpted by 3 glaciations. All of the Highlands’ history is illustrated by features of the current landscape, which we will interpret for you.

Join the New Jersey Highlands Coalition’s Spring Car Trek and learn about local geology, all while experiencing the natural beauty of the Highlands firsthand. Participants will begin their trek at the High Marques dealership in Morristown and will wend their way through 65 miles* of New Jersey nature, learning about the region’s geology!

We provide you with step-by-step directions so you don’t get lost. It’s not a race; you can drive the route at your own pace. There will be several engaging stops on this self-guided tour where you can jump out, take a walk, and snap a photo. So grab a friend, buckle up, and join us on March 27th at 10 am at High Marques Motor Cars for this exciting educational adventure! It’s gonna rock! This event is sanctioned by the SCCA Northern New Jersey Region.

If you aren’t available on March 27th, you are welcome to drive the route on any other day. Once you register, you will receive the route on March 26th and can enjoy the route whenever works for you!

TX: Back-to-Basics RoadRally Series #2 - Signs and Landmarks
2022-03-19 10:00 - 15:00 (America/Chicago) | • Clark’s Outpost Restaurant – Tioga, TX, 103 N Ray Roberts Pkwy, Tioga, TX, 76271, United States
In 2022, in addition to rallies that we have put on regularly in recent years (e.g., Sweetheart Ride, Tick-Tock, DFW Map, Children’s Book Run), the Texas Region of the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) will be conducting a series of road rallies and schools.

The Region is designing these to introduce rallying to newcomers and refresh and reinforce key concepts for our more experienced rallyists. This “Back-to-Basics” series will consist of four events of progressive challenge levels staged over several months. These will be SCCA GTA (Games, Tours, Adventures) Social Rallies, about 45-60 miles and 2 ½ – 3 hours long. We will score them and present awards to the most successful. The objective is to conduct events in accordance with the SCCA RoadRally Rules, starting with simple rules and instructions. Then each succeeding rally will introduce more advanced topics.

There will be a virtual Road Rally School, six days before each rally, where we will present the rules and instructions for that rally, demonstrate “how-to,” and go through applicable examples. Liz Witt, Rallymaster for the four B2B rallies, will be your lead instructor.

The tentative schedule for the Back-to-Basics (B2B) events is as follows:

B2B #1 – Focus on General Instructions, Route Instructions, Questions• Rally School (via Zoom session): January 9th• Rally: January 15th – Did You SEE That?

B2B #2 – Focus on Signs and Landmarks• Rally School (via Zoom session): March 13th• Rally: March 19th

B2B#3 – Focus on Main Road Concepts• Rally School (via Zoom session): May 1st• Rally: May 7th

B2B#4 – Focus on Roads and Intersections• Rally School (via Zoom session): May 29th• Rally: June 4th

The Rally Schools will be conducted via Zoom and recorded for later on-demand viewing. After each rally, a packet of materials (General Instructions, Route Instructions, Question and Answer Sheet, Explanation/Critique Sheets) will be made available. This way, if you miss any of the rallies or schools or only become aware of our program part of the way into the year, you can watch the recording(s) and run the rally(ies) at your convenience (not scored) to get up to speed on covered skills and concepts.

The Back-to-Basics Series will help prepare you for a “course-following” (aka, trap) rally. We plan to conduct a National or Divisional GTA rally in the Fall, a perfect opportunity for putting what you learned into practice!

CA: Ron Dunlop Memorial Road Rally
2022-03-19 09:00 - 17:00 UTC | • McDonald’s – Camarillo, CA, 60 W Daily Drive, Camarillo, CA, 93010, United States
Please join us for a fun and exciting car road rally celebrating the life of Ron Dunlop, a great guy and a tremendous rally organizer and competitor, on Saturday, March 19, 2022. The Ron Dunlop Memorial Rally, sponsored by the Into the Night Rally Team, is sanctioned as an SCCA Divisional Tour Rally and will explore the amazing Wine Country backroads around Santa Barbara and Santa Maria.

Rallymaster Paul McGaffey’s Route Instructions will use a simple Monte Carlo format, meaning you get turn-by-turn directions, AND you will get your target time at each Checkpoint. All Timed Checkpoints are listed in the Route Instructions, and all are referenced by prominent signs on the course. The rally is a little over 200 miles long, and you will have seven hours of driving nirvana with many breaks for gas, food, and rest stops.

The object of this event is to enjoy driving sweeping, beautiful, challenging back roads at legal speeds while following simple directions to pass a series of checkpoints at just the right time.

There is no need for advanced math, no riddles, compasses, maps, or gimmicks, just glorious roads to drive with a focus on precision and accuracy. Rallying is a team sport; the Driver and Navigator must work together to get it right.

There are no average speeds. Just run at the posted speed limits (rally is timed at least two mph BELOW those limits and has pauses where needed). If you reach a timed Checkpoint early, you can pull over, get out of traffic lanes, and either creep in or wait for your target time to pass by the Checkpoint.

We will be using the Richta GPS Competitor app for timing and scoring. This app is FREE and easy to use on any GPS-enabled smartphone or appropriate tablet. Go to the App Store, Google Play Store, or direct to https://richtarally.com/ and download it. There is no need for additional timing equipment; your Official Time shows in the app!

We’ve designed it to be EV-friendly. There are five stations and a Tesla Dealership near the Start in Camarillo, five near the lunch break in Santa Maria, two fast-charging stations, and a Tesla Supercharger in the parking lot at the Finish in Goleta.

Please register online here at MotorsportsReg. The registration fee is $60 per car, with a $15 discount for SCCA members. You may still register in person at the Start. (Sorry, but we will not be able to accept credit cards at Registration. Please use the MSR website to pay by credit card.) Both Driver and Navigator are required to complete the Waiver. To save time for both you and us at the Start, we ask you to please enter your cell phone number where indicated near the bottom of the registration page, and please check the ‘yes’ button just below that. Speedwaiver will send you a text, and you follow their directions to use your phone to complete the Waiver.

We start at the Mcdonald’s rear lot. In-person Registration opens at 9:00 am; there is a beginner/Richta GPS meeting at 9:40 am, and the first car out at 10:01 am. Yet we encourage you to Pre-Register so that we can have ample copies of the Route Instructions!

The finish will be at Camino Real Marketplace (near Starbucks), 7030 Market Place Dr, Goleta, CA 93117. The first car should be arriving around 5 pm.

Trophies will be awarded to the top teams in Classes E (Equipped), L (Limited equipment), S (Stock), G (GPS-driven rally computers), and N (Novice – 3 or fewer previous rallies).

More rally information can be found at www.itnrally.org and on our ITN Facebook page. For more detailed information, contact: Paul – Selmer6@gmail.com or Joe – carzero@aol.com.

The Texas Region of the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) invites you to join us at Logan’s Roadhouse for Jerry White’s annual Valentine’s Day-themed road rally. It will be about a 90-mile drive on some of the scenic hard surfaced country roads in the Brazos River Valley in Parker, Hood, and Palo Pinto Counties. No prior rally experience or SCCA membership is necessary.

The challenge is to see how many correct puzzle solutions (many with a sweetheart theme) you can find based on signs and objects along the rally route. Puzzles can have from zero (0) to four (4) correct solutions. One (1) penalty point is awarded for each findable puzzle solution you miss marking as found and one (1) is awarded for each solution you mark as found when it didn’t exist or in some way was not a correct solution. Low score wins. There will never be more than one puzzle active at a time. Think of it as a visual scavenger hunt.

Google Forms will be used to display the route instructions and puzzles and to collect and score you and your sweetheart’s/navigator’s solutions. To use a Google Form, you will need a browser on a smartphone, tablet, or laptop computer to connect to the Internet via Wi-Fi or cellular data.

In addition, you will need a separate smartphone to run the Richta GPS Competitor app. It will use GPS signals and a minor amount of cellular data to monitor your time and course and tell you when to stop working on a puzzle and/or prepare to do the next route instruction. You should also participate in the February 12th Zoom Rally School (or watch its recording) and visit roadrally.page to help prepare for the rally.

2022-02-20 09:00 - 13:00 UTC | • Arcadia Outlet Mall – Arcadia, LA, 700 Factory Outlet Dr Ste 102, Arcadia, LA, 71001, United States
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

The rally will go no further east than Woodsville, N.H.; no further north than Calais, VT; no further west than Randolph, VT; and no further south than Sharon, VT. This year the rally again will have straightforward course instructions, with a few bits to keep your mind occupied early in the event (about the same as in 2017); you do need to pay attention and drive ‘briskly.’

For 2022, the classes:

Class A Calculating equipment may receive a direct input from a mileage-measuring device. Typical calculating devices in this Class include: Alfa, Chronar, Timewise, and Zeron rally computers.

Class L If distance information is acquired only from a mechanical odometer, it must be manually fed into any calculation device; the distance measuring device must be separate from the calculation device. (e.g. Curta calculators, tables, laptop computer, electronic APP, programmable and nonprogrammable electronic calculators. If the distance information is derived solely from GPS signals, then any electronic APP may be used.

Class S Distance information must be visually acquired from the vehicle’s stock, non-adjustable odometer in the stock location.

No special equipment is needed other than a smartphone with built-in GPS. A free app is available from your favorite app store. The app not only provides the timing but also provides a digital roadbook similar to the one used at Dakar in 2021.

Texas Region Sasha's Children's Book Run Rally
2021-12-05 13:00 - 16:30 UTC | • The Horny Toad Cafe and Bar, Denton, TX, 5812 I-35, Denton, TX, 76207, United States
Let’s close out the Rally season supporting a good cause while honoring Sasha Lanz! The Texas Region of the Sports Car Club of America would like to cordially invite all fellow car enthusiasts to this Trek rally benefiting the Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. No prior rally experience is necessary.

A bit of history: Sasha Lanz was instrumental in building a successful RoadRally program in the SCCA Texas Region and leading it for many years. Sadly, Sasha passed away earlier this year. One of his favorite events was the Children’s Book Run. Entrants were asked to donate 2 children’s books, which were gathered at check-in on Rally Day. Over the course of the five years that we held the rally, hundreds of books were donate to Sottish Rite! We would like to keep this tradition alive and conduct a Children’s Book Run in his name every year.

This year we plan to conduct the event as a Trek. This is a rally format recently added to the SCCA RoadRally event mix. A Trek is a non-competitive driving event on scenic country roads. No questions, puzzles, tricks or traps, or timed controls, just a fun (and stress-free) drive following a pre-determined route in northern Denton County using a “convoy style” format. We’ll provide basic route instructions as a back-up only. Weather permitting, we’ll stop in Pilot Point for a group picture in front of a historic site.

Each person in the car is asked to contribute two books, which must be NEW books due to the Hospital’s current COVID-19 guidelines. They need books for all ages — 5 through 16, including Look-and-Find books, board books, chapter books, Spanish-language books, etc. We will collect the books at Registration/Check-in.
