VT: Winter Challenge RoadRally

The long-awaited Winter Challenge Road Rally, sanctioned by the SCCA New England Region, met its entry cap on February 2nd!

Rallymaster John Buffum will be providing updates for this year’s event: Generals, Richta GPS Training, and practice rallies for a map rally and route instructions on the winterchallengerally.com website.

The Winter Challenge Rally weekend, which Vermont SportsCar presents, will consist of a single New England Regional, SCCA rally running from 4 pm Saturday until 2 am Sunday with two breaks. Although no car-breaking roads will be used, the majority of the roads chosen are rural, unpaved roads, which will undoubtedly be snow and ice-covered. The rally will go no further east than Woodsville, N.H.; no further north than Calais, VT; no further west than Randolph, VT; and no further south than Sharon, VT. This year the rally again will have straightforward course instructions, with a few bits to keep your mind occupied early in the event (about the same as in 2017); you do need to pay attention and drive ‘briskly.’

For 2022, the classes:

• Class A    Calculating equipment may receive a direct input from a mileage-measuring device.  Typical calculating devices in this Class include: Alfa, Chronar, Timewise, and Zeron rally computers.
• Class L    If distance information is acquired only from a mechanical odometer, it must be manually fed into any calculation device; the distance measuring device must be separate from the calculation device.  (e.g. Curta calculators, tables, laptop computer, electronic APP, programmable and nonprogrammable electronic calculators.   If the distance information is derived solely from GPS signals, then any electronic APP may be used.
• Class S   Distance information must be visually acquired from the vehicle’s stock, non-adjustable odometer in the stock location.
