2nd Bite of the Apple Road Rally April 15th, 2007 Johnson City, NY |
The
Northeast Rally Club hosted an event on April 22, 2005 in Johnson City, NY. This
was a 3-hour, self-timed rally that introduced the participants to the type
of rallying they encountered in the 3-day Penn-York Road Rally held May
4 - 6th, 2007 in New York and Pennsylvania, centered in Binghamton, NY. The
rally took place on paved roads only. All
assigned speeds were at or below the posted speed limit.
The rally was open to all street legal vehicles.
A short
rally school was be held prior to the start of the event.
If you think this sounds like fun - join us for the 3-day Pumpkin Run Oct 26 - 28, 2007 in Millsboro, DE where you can bring any car: your 1930 Model A, that hopped up 49 Buick or even a 2004 Mini Cooper. A handicap is provided to cars built before 1954, to even the odds, but even a 2007 Solstice is welcome. You need no special equipment but an accurate or "factored" speedometer is recommended (rally computers are not allowed). Mandatory rally school is provided. Rookies compete in a separate class.
Cars leave in 1 minute intervals from a set start point and travel the same course. Instructions are very specific. At surprise checkpoints, you will note your time and the teams (various classes) with the elapsed time closest to the perfect time win bragging rights.
This is a Great Race styled Time Speed (TS) Rally. To learn more about how to rally, click here.
