Rallycross Interest?
I am wanting to do a story on National Rallycross ... but it's hard to do if you've never run one! I'd like to run the event in Manchester, TN September 11 & 12.
If you have a car suitable, I'll pay gas up and split a hotel room in return for a co-drive. You cover your own entry fee. I have a trailer and tow vehicle if we need to tow. Anyone interested? More info here... http://www.trscca.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1268 Entry fee is $65 and it starts noon saturday... can easily drive up saturday morning, run saturday, spend night, run sunday and drive back sunday evening. Course will look something like this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cHZJMmcP...r_embedded Ted P.S. Where's Seth... we're finally getting rallycrosses in the south and he moved away! There are 5 more scheduled in the southeast (AL area) this year! Ted E. Bayer - Hillclimbing Understeer is when you hit the mountain with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the mountain with the rear of the car. Horsepower is how fast you hit the mountain, torque is how far you move the mountain. |

RE: Rallycross Interest?

RE: Rallycross Interest?
Called Jaimie during my lunch and she is ok with us using the CRX. Can we tow it there and back. Would be nice in case something breaks, which I don't really see happening.

RE: Rallycross Interest?
Wow, I happened to find this thread as a fluke through Google!
I am one of the organizers of the event in Manchester. If you don't find a car to borrow/use in your area, there is a guy from the Alabama region that is bringing a car to rent. His userid on that forum is Ryan-L, and the forum can be found here: http://teamtac.org/e107/e107_plugins/for....php?50365 Try contacting him, as he preferred advance notice for people that wanted to 'share' his car. Too cool to see you want to write a story on rallycross. Hope to see you there!

RE: Rallycross Interest?
Unfortunately <?> I am going to be on vacation in FLorida with family until saturday. No way I can make it up there for this one. I do plan to make some of the last ones this year down in AL. Thanks for info on the rental. I'll try to talk Zach and a few others into coming too! Sorry I could not make it. Please send me your email, a write on the event and some pics!
