Cincinnati-Based road rally.... The Rooster Challenge

[carwash]

A couple friends and I are putting on a Tri-state based road rally. It is a 2 day event with the Saturday consisting of bracket racing at thornhill and a 300 mile-ish road rally on Sunday.

It benefits the Susan G. Komen for the cure foundation.

I have 2 friends from a mustang club attending. I am going to try to watch the event and ride passenger. Looks like alot of fun!

[carwash]

Awesome! who do you know that's signing up?

[94Dodge Truggy]

Adam Freeman in a stock 93 mustang :D

[carwash]

and yer navigating?

[94Dodge Truggy]

Not a real fan of the navigation duties. Would like to drive possibly.

[carwash]

I only said that because in your first post you said you were riding passenger.

[94Dodge Truggy]

Yeah I am not too hip on putting my life in anothers hand but what the hell! :rolleyes: My eyesd may be closed at times so navigating will be difficult. :eek: You participating?

[gothodgie]

Carwash, you gonna put street tires on the Yeti and drive it?
I'd come out just to see that...:D
:beers:

I'll cross post this to my turbo dodge club and see if anyone is interested. my little NA 84 dodge ramapge isnt up to par but maybe soem fo the guys in the gorup will go

[carwash]

i can't run it, I'm an organizer of the event. me and a couple other guys are putting this thing on. wouldn't be fair if we were in it... we'd have a little bit of an unfair advantage.

I didn't see anything about rules, so I'm guessing there aren't any.

Are bikes allowed?

[carwash]

No bikes... 4 wheels only, sorry. There are rules in the registration form/waiver. Thought i put no bikes in there... i will add it if not. I need to start a "rules questions" thread in the forums... for questions like these, thanks.

[itbrokeagain]

Hopefully me and my dad are in. Kids birthdays conflict though so I dont know.

[carwash]

Hope you can sign up tony, would be sweet!

[donaldcon]

Hmm... would I be way out of place in my ugly, 100% stock 4cylinder front wheel drive pickup truck?

[carwash]

That's the kind of car i'm putting my money on that wins this thing...

[donaldcon]

I may just think about entering this thing, although I have NO idea whats involved. Im just getting my feetwet in this pavement pounding stuff. I hope oneday to get it setup for some autocross stuff.

[carwash]

this should cover most questions... ask anything else you are looking to know.

Sounds simple enough. Though my high 17sec drag time may get a few laughs :)

I'm trying to get Jim ( Aftershock151) to sign up ! we're concerned about the power glide and rear gears in the Chevelle !! :cool: for the street end of the rally anyway .

These events are a blast if done right ! I've done several in the Dayton area just for fun . some folks get really serious about these things, computers and multiple timers on board .....

Mike , how many road miles is this going to be ?
I might have to buy Jim a ring and Pinion :D

It's a timed bracket race... you could win it in a geo metro. All you have to do is know how fast it goes the 1/4, and guess it well, and don't break out. Guys win these bracket comps in ford escorts all the time, etc.

Would love to see you and jim in it sarge... cool as hell.

Should be under 300 miles... no exact mileage set yet, but we want it finished in about 6 hours or so. We won't know the mileage and checkpoint set up til a few weeks prior... you guys wont know the checkpoints til you leave the start line... that's what makes it a navigator's race.

[carwash]

This event is coming up fast. Event details are nailed down. Sign up soon. Let me know if u have any questions.

[tjjeepjeep]
