AL: Pine Mountain Trek RoadRally
April 22, 2023 @ 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Join ALSCCA for our first road rally event, a Trek across Pine Mountain in central Alabama!
About this event:
Pine Mountain Trek will follow the SCCA Trek-format, a fun non-competitive follow-the-leader drive through country roads, mountain roads, and byways, but with a twist – there will be General Instructions and Route Instructions provided, checkpoints along the route, and basic training for those interested in follow-on competitive TSD rallies with scoring.
The Trek will end at the Mustang Museum of America in Odenville, AL. The museum welcomes our SCCA group to view more than 100 cars of every vintage, including the US’s largest collection of Highway Patrol Mustangs, with a discounted entrance fee of $10/person. Those interested can join us for lunch at Charlie’s BBQ in Odenville around noon.
The Trek will begin in the parking lot of the Barber Motorsports Museum at 8:00 am, Saturday April 22nd, 2023. Waivers, along with basic training and instructions will be provided at 8:00 am – don’t be late! First car out at 9:00 am. Length of drive: 58 miles, 2.0 hours. A return drive back to the starting point at your leisure will add 17 miles in 25 minutes.
Registration and payment must be done online.
The number of cars participating will be limited to 20 total, minimum of one driver and one navigator per car, other riders welcome. If your navigator or riders are minors, a special release is required.
Registration fee: SCCA members $20/car. Non-members $30 (includes $10 fee for SCCA weekend membership)
No special equipment is required. A smartphone with built-in GPS and a windshield mount is strongly recommended, allowing you to download and use the free Richta Competitor app (Apple App Store or Google Play Store). It is recommended that you download this app before arriving. Further instructions on app use will be provided prior to the rally start. A clipboard, pen or pencil for note-taking, and a basic stop-watch may be useful. Full rally timing equipment and apps are not allowed, as there are no competitive classes in this Trek event.
