The 2002 Wild West International ProRally is shaping up to be an action packed event in the NWR of SCCA. The Wild West is round 9 of 10 for the SCCA ProRally Championship, round 5 for CNAR, and includes the Sou?wester and Simpson ClubRallies. The rally, scheduled for September 7th and 8th, will cover 130 special stage miles over 13 stages. A superspecial stage at the ORV park will start the rally, where spectators, crews, and other teams can watch the expected 80-car field show their stuff. Saturday also features a grueling 24 mile stage that will test car and driver endurance. And each day will have 3 fantastic spectator locations to get real close to real cars racing real fast on real roads.
The field may have to be limited to 80 entrants, but no favoritism will occur on selecting who gets in. Entries will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, with surplus entries placed on a waiting list. Fees are $400 for both ClubRallies, $750 for the ProRally, or $850 for Pro/Club or Pro/CNAR, provided entry forms are received by August 23rd (after that date, add $100).
CARS MUST BE CLEAN WHEN PRESENTED FOR SCRUTINEERING. Clean your cars inside and out, underneath and under the hood. Dirty cars will not be allowed to start and entry fees will not be returned. No exceptions.
Wild West will be run under FIA-style rules, with regrouping controls before each service, exactly 22 minutes for service, then refueling outside of service. And for the Pro entrants, you will have 45 minutes of service after the last stage Saturday before cars are locked into parc ferme overnight.
Schedule, supplemental regulations, entry forms, and spectator directions can be found at http://www.nwr-scca.org/rally/wildwest.html within a couple of weeks, but until then, rest assured the organizers are working hard to hammer out the details to provide a fun and challenging rally for all competitors.
See you in the woods,
