Default RallyX Oct 27 in Orange, VA

http://www.dcrally.com/rallycross/2002oaklandacres3.htm

Come out and have some fun in the dirt!
There is a RallyX at the Oakland Acres site in Orange, VA on Oct 27.
The course has been modified extensively since the last one. All trees were taken down, and the stages were combined for 2 miles of course!

Registration is $40 no matter if you are an SCCA member or not, so dont let that discourage you if you let your membership lapse.

I would love to see some honda techers and road racers out there to show these boys how its done.

oh yeah....anybody want to let me drive their car?

Evan

Im still looking into it, but Ive got a college buddy who lives in Orange, and Im trying to set something up where we could go to his place on saturday, BBQ and drink until we pass out in the front yard, then wake up sunday and go drive cars sideways.
So you boys from far away aint got no excuse to not come!
(if this works out)

With a set of Dunlop Wintersport m2's, my car still kicks *** in the snow/dirt without an LSD

I was considering going. But only 2-3 runs? not worth the long trip there for me.

Can't bring the hatchback as I think the header would get ripped off pretty quick.

Do not use winter ice grip tires if the course is not muddy/soft/wet, unless you want them to end up looking like new unshaven streets that Corey got ahold of for Hyperfest. (best analogy I could think of :D ) Stick with street tires for the hardpacked dirt.

Hey, how about you drive the WRX and lend me the wagon for a beer?

If you want to bring the wrx, you can use my stock wheels with all season tires. which are actually pretty good in the dirt.

Why don't you drive yours?
Stiff Cusco coilovers and lowered like hell. *sigh*

and by the way, my other ride did fall through
