Wanna Race?? You can!!

Bring a car (or a friend with a car) and a helmet (Snell 2000-2005-2010 both M and SA helmets are valid this year.), pay the entry fee (no gettin around that one) and you are off to the races!! Drop in or buy a yearly membership. "What kind of car do I need?" you may ask. Let's look at two perfect examples below. The first is a Ford Cosworth which was once driven by World Rally Champion Colin Mcrae and probably has every trick in the book stuffed under the hood. The other perfect example is a red car.

   

These and anything in between are the best cars to use. Horsepower is not the most important thing at these events. Discovering new driving skills, comradery and good times is what its all about. Oh ya , and we have championship trophies too. ;D A final word here is that we race CARS. Not trucks, Jeeps, SUVs or anything of that nature. Just cars.

This is just a quick reminder that the Trail of Gnu TSD rally is happening this coming weekend in the Rocky Mountain House area.

Given the conditions, it is going to be another excellent rally. As of this morning there are 13 entries, none of which are from ERC! If you need incentive, Taisto Heinonen will be running an Audi TT with Leanne Junnila co-driving. In case you're too young to know, Taisto was 5-time Canadian Rally champion (1977, 78, 79, 80 and 82). That doesn't mean he's any good at TSD, although Leanne is VERY good, so take this opportunity to try to make a chump out of a 5-time champ.

Northern Loon Cancelled

Other than the two entries that arrived a week ago, no one expressed interest in entering the Northern Loon Rally, so I suppose very few people will be disappointed if it is cancelled. We'll reschedule later in the year if there's sufficient interest to make running it worthwhile. Thanks to all the people that volunteered to run controls, you now have a free weekend.
