[RallyGTX]

Make the current 'Club Only' events into Pro/Club events which are non-points-paying to the Pro contingent.

Since the championship calendar is already written, 'Pro' teams could use it as a 'test' if they chose to participate.

That might be one way to get around the ill-conceived 'ban'

If it could only be that simple!!

I am sure it is a little late to get Pro sanctioning on Dryad..but it was a nice thought..

Go to Canada to rally

When rally is outlawed, only outlaws will rally.

Now THERE is a thought!! Glad we don't live that far away....

Being a Floridian, going to Canada is hardly a viable option. As good as it may be going to Canada is not going to fix ClubRally.

Canada could fix ClubRally by offering event insurance.

As opposed to all those Club Rallies that were held in Florida before (or Georgia or Aabama or Mississippi or South Carolina or....). If you can go to STPR or Maine Forest or Sno*Drift or LSPR or Ojibwe or any of their Club Rally adjuncts, you can get to Ontario, where there is something to run almost every month.

Those of us in the southeast have been trying to establish local events with some limited success due concerns of safety and damage. This only makes it harder. If I need to travel to Canada every month for a rally I will have to get a spare EVO to keep it cost effective. Need lots of spares.

I know how tough it can be to find venues. I don't believe Rallycross has been affected by all this. Since it tends to take place on private land, it may be a much easier thing to make happen than a Club Rally (when the program restarts). National Sports Car Club (& Western Ohio Region)in Dayton, OH, is staging a complete series of rallycrosses this year at two different venues. Both are private property. Dan Coughnour is Chairman of the series. Maybe he has some tips.

rally x's and performance rally are completely different. success in one doesn't equal success in the other. private land = liability. what if the accident in PA had been at a rally held on someone's land?

Our rally-x series doesn't allow spectators, in general. If you want to watch, you're going to work. Sure, you can probably weasel through the system, but that's the official policy. And all competitors will be covered by SCCA's insurance.
