Mother Nature has been a roll this month for which wreaking havoc on outdoor events and RallyCross was no exception this month. We battled muggy but hot conditions all morning and through the afternoon with our RallyCross Points #4 Event. Kris Martison designed a tricky course with 4 cross-over points leading to long 70-80 second runs for our competitors. However, about 2:30, dark clouds rolled in, blew my pop-up tent over, and subsequently dropped a monsoon of rain that turned our once-dry RallyCross coarse into 2 inches of mud. With lightning overhead and the course undrivable we called off the rest of the runs and scrambled to retrieve what we could. To avoid ruining the site with ruts, we opted to leave the cones on the coarse until drier conditions returned. I can confirm the site is still in good shape, though I noticed some rutting happening where we once laid dirt down. So I spoke to the site owner about that. If we get a dry spell he will drop some more dirt there to fill in and smooth it over.

Mother Nature has been a roll this month for which wreaking havoc on outdoor events and RallyCross was no exception this month. We battled muggy but hot conditions all morning and through the afternoon with our RallyCross Points #4 Event. Kris Martison designed a tricky course with 4 cross-over points leading to long 70-80 second runs for our competitors. However, about 2:30, dark clouds rolled in, blew my pop-up tent over, and subsequently dropped a monsoon of rain that turned our once-dry RallyCross coarse into 2 inches of mud. With lightning overhead and the course undrivable we called off the rest of the runs and scrambled to retrieve what we could. To avoid ruining the site with ruts, we opted to leave the cones on the coarse until drier conditions returned. I can confirm the site is still in good shape, though I noticed some rutting happening where we once laid dirt down. So I spoke to the site owner about that. If we get a dry spell he will drop some more dirt there to fill in and smooth it over.

We have another RallyCross Points Event in July, but I will be out of town for this.

I have arranged for Alex Reinkordt to be the Event- master and Course Designer, so I’m confident you’ll have a great event while I’m away.

I’m still looking for someone to bring food for the event, so if you have any bright ideas.
