MI: Detroit Region Are You Territorial RoadRally

You are invited to join the SCCA Detroit Region for this 190-mile time-speed-distance National Course RoadRally run on an entertaining mix of well-maintained paved (60%) and unpaved (40%) country roads around the state recreation areas and farmlands of Southeastern Michigan. Chelsea, Michigan, is conveniently located just 45 miles from the Detroit Metro Airport. This late summer daytime event will challenge your ability to apply the route following rules and directions to follow the prescribed rally route. Both Numbered and Lettered Route Instructions will be used on the Are you Territorial Road Rally?, along with modified “Onto” and “T” Main Road Determinants. The rally will be novice-friendly for any rallyists already experienced with Tour rallies. The traps will be looped to minimize the chances of getting lost and GPS recovery points if you do.

NOTE: This rally will use the Richta app for timing and scoring. If you have not used this technology in a rally before then you must take a few moments to visit the Richta app information page at http://drscca.org/rally/using-the-richta-competitor-app/ to learn how the app works and how to use it.

Entry fees (per car): $75 for each team. Non-members need to apply for a weekend membership. The cost is $15 per team if neither team member is an SCCA member.  

All entries must be done online. There will be no in-person activities authorized for this event. Register at motorsportreg.com today!

Awards will be presented to the first and second place teams in each of the following classes:
E (Equipped) – unlimited equipment.
L (Limited) – no limits on distance measuring equipment, but only a GPS odometer can be connected to a computer.
S (Stock) – distance measurement limited to the stock odometer, in stock location. GPS odometers may NOT be used in this Class for any timing calculations.
N (Novice) – any team where the total number of rallies entered by the two members of the team does not exceed six (6); and equipment is restricted to that of the Stock class.
Distribution of awards TBD.
