WI: Spring Scamper RoadRally

Milwaukee Region SCCA will host the 2024 Spring Scamper car rally on Sunday, April 7th. You’re invited to join us for this new 100+ mile, 4+ hour rally around Madison, WI. No prior rally experience is necessary, and any type of street-legal car is welcome. You do not have to be a member of SCCA to participate.

Rallymaster Jim Crittenden has designed a rally course that will take you on a scenic tour of the country roads south of Madison. This is not a race; it’s a game of precision driving where you’ll be challenged to arrive at each checkpoint at exactly the right time. Penalty points are assigned for being too fast or too slow. Trophies will be awarded to the teams with the best performances. There are no unpaved roads on the course.  

You’ll need a rally partner (Driver and Navigator) and a smartphone. The entry fee is $20 per person; two people are required in each car. Pre-registration is required; no walk-ins on the day of the event. This is a charity fundraiser for the Dane County Humane Society. This organization finds ‘furever’ homes for thousands of animals every year as well as providing emergency animal care for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, and other wildlife. Your entry fee will help support their efforts. Click here for more information about DCHS.

We’ll be using the Competitor—Richta GPS Checkpoint app system. The Richta GPS Checkpoint app will run on your smartphone, record your arrival time at each checkpoint, and then report your leg score immediately to you. No more waiting until the rally is over to see your score! You will need to bring a smartphone to run this rally.
