Rally Cross
Rally Cross
Is there going to be any rally crosses nearby. I really would like to goto a few this year... If none nearby is there anyway ETRSCCA can organize one. I would be willing to help out in any way if we could have one.
Thanks
Thanks
I dont think that ETR would be opposed to such an event but there has not been a sense of enthusiasm for such events. I have taken the same position with basic club rallies. In other words, if you want to do a rally cross, find me a location(probably pretty easy) and an organizer for the event and it will happen. It's tough to divert our resources from what the bulk of the club wants to do(autocross) to go into other areas.

Seems like I remember hearing that someone here had a family member with land in Greenville that would be suitable.tscott wrote:I would be happy to organize the event, but like you said Wayne, a site is definitely the limiting component here. The folks from Chatty would be more than willing to come help us run this event.
Assuming I don't have prior commitments, I would be happy to help with the event. These things are a lot of fun but I don't have anything I can drive.

Hey Mark, I have my 84 Rabbit 16V still together. Insurance totaled it for me, but it would be fine for beating on in the dirt. The open diff in the FF wide ratio trans sucks, as long as we don't explode the motor
I would prefer to trailer it(I know how we would drive it muah ha ha ha haaaa), and it would need some decent tires (14 inch to fit over the brakes, remember) eventualy some parts will be used in the 16V Scirocco, but you know how that snail is comming along
just something to think about

Yeah Baby! I'm all over that! Actually they have a street tire class so what you have on the car would be fine.TedV wrote:Hey Mark, I have my 84 Rabbit 16V still together.

The rules for rally cross(es) are rather specific and jumps are not part of the rules. SCCA has this thing for preventing cars from leaving all fours in their events. As I stated earlier, if there is interest(and it appears that there is) and a place to hold the event, it can happen.

I need to get a set of the rules and follow up on this type of event. I've always thought that gravel lots and construction sites had the most potential but the right cow field might work too.
I'll talk with the Chatt folk and see what they've been able to do.
