Due to sponsership by a local business, the entry fee for this year's "Training Wheels" Rally is free. The normal fee for these events is $25 to $65. There is a training class too that covers the rules and finer points of Monte Carlo style rallying. If you feel like a fun, four-hour fling with your Cobra, these things are a blast. We will get to play in sections of the San Bernadino mountains that are very scenic.
(The best part is, there will be lots of Subarus to pass!)
Event Information Follows:
**************************************************
ALL LEGAL VEHICLES WELCOME. NO SPECIAL EQUIPMENT REQUIRED. This event is an easy, map-based, backroad-oriented, timed event for first-time entrants and experts alike.
This is not a race. It is intended to be a test of your map-reading and instruction-following capabilities. However, you are expected to run "on time". Think if it as a giant board game, with the roads and landscape of California for a board and you and your car for a game piece.
Opportunities for spirited driving will abound. Paved roads only. 2 people per car (driver and navigator) are suggested. Event runs rain or shine. There are 4 classes: Beginner, Novice, Regular, and Expert. We suggest you bring a clipboard, pen, paper, 3 different colored highlight markers, and a light inside the car, other than the dome light, to read the maps at night. You'll also need a clock that can set the seconds.
This event is FREE. It is sponsored by Road/Race Engineering and Into The Night Rallye Team. Preregistration is not necessary, but please email us at
carzero@aol.com, or leave a message at 310 556 8305, to let us know to expect you. All entries must bring registration, proof of insurance, and your driver's license to the Start, which is located just south of the 10 FWY at the Miliken Exit in Ontario. We are in the TA on the WEST side of Miliken, at the address below.
