Since I couldn't find all this information in one spot and in a form that was easy to visualize and, inspired by Eric's North America Cage Builder map, I created the...

North America Rally Map

showing the approximate location and the dates of events in north america.

Try living in Texas and attempting just a regional championship (not that regional champs exist anymore).

Better start with just a basic rally sprint.

Well, I don't want to guess at what the dates in 2014 would be. Hopefully they'll publish a 2014 list at some point.

Very cool map - thanks for compiling

What's unfortunate is that all Rally America national events, with the one notable exception of Oregon Trail, are in the East and NorthEast, which makes the R-A national championship largely impractical for pretty much everyone on the West Coast. If one is based in SoCal, the closest R-A national event (OT) is just over 1000 miles each way, with all other national events being > 2000 miles each way. Sure, it might be possible to rent garage space for rally car & associated spares, service vehicle & tools somewhere somewhat central e.g. Pittsburgh, and pay someone to prep the car, but that only adds to the cost & does nothing to mitigate the cost of flights from the West Coast to the East Coast for competitors & essential crew members.

Is this a map of Rallies? NORRA, San Felipe 250 and Imperial Valley 250 are not car-based rally events. Nor are the Baja events.

Just sayin'.....

 

[Anders Green]

I've seen cars at the NORRA rallies. You'll have to describe in more detail how your flavor of "pure rally" excludes that from being called a rally.

Same problem if youre in Florida or Texas. Only 100AW is close. Sandblast for NASA. Its a big country.
