2020 Season is a Bust!

By 1 Comment

You have probably guessed already, but the 2020 season will go down as the season that wasn’t. We have been looking at options, but because of the close quarters in the cars and the contact between organizers and competitors, plus the inability to gather at a finish location has side-tracked our ability to put on rally events. At this point, we can only wait to see what happens over the winter. With any luck, Covid 19 will morph into Covid 20 and become harmless. We are also kicking around touchless options. I, for one am being plagued with dreams of rallying and driving on gravel roads. Hopefully, we can resume doing that next year.

Keep the faith, stay safe and hopefully we will be able to Rally on!

July Friday Nighter — Cancelled

By Leave a Comment

Yet another Friday Night Rally bites the dust to the Corona Virus. I so miss driving around out there. August is a planned month off and we are, so far, sticking with that. Maybe by September, we will be able to do something. My optimism is waning. But we all want to go back….

Stay safe, and keep the faith. We will once again, Rally On!

June Friday Nighter — Cancelled

By Leave a Comment

For the third month in a row, the Covid 19 shutdown claims another Friday Nighter. It looks like we may be able to have a rally this summer, but the situation is still uncertain. Cascade Sports Car Club in Oregon is putting on Saturday rallies. They are social distancing rallies with no interaction with the organizers. Registration and payment are online. They mail you the route instructions and the checkpoints are operated by a phone app, and they email you the results. We are looking into emulating that. In the meantime, we are hoping that the vaccine that is being developed works and we can all get back to rallying the old fashioned way.

We will keep you posted.

May Friday Nighter ***Cancelled*** 5/8/2020

Covid-19 continues to impede our rally season, along with other activities. For May, with no restaurants open to finish a checkout and no certainty that one will be open for the night of the rally, we again had to cancel the rally. We are hoping for June and we will let you know as soon as we know.
