Got word this morning that the insurance problem was finally resolved and NWRC is fully operational again. Events can proceed as planned. Just in the nick of time for RASC’s Raindrop this Sunday 5/7, and with little more breathing room for FOOTZ’s Appetizer on Friday 5/12.

April Is The New May

The Season Begins! Opener Gets Postponed To 5/12

Coming Friday, April 14th May 12th, get an introduction to the Richta GPS checkpoint system when FOOTZ presents “Appetizer” to kick off the 2023 NWRC Friday Nighter series. Rallymaster Mike Daily has put together a fun route with no traps, so teams can get acquainted with the Richta system. The rally ends in Maple Valley at Farrelli’s Pizza.

You’ll need to have the Richta “Competitor” app on your iOS or Android smartphone. Do yourself a favor and get it installed ahead of time. We put together a short guide to getting and using the Competitor app. The guide can be found in the Documents section here on our website and while you’re there, grab the April May Supplemental Generals. April May (and beyond) will run under rules modified to use the Richta checkpoint system. The May ‘Supps’ include changes that were not in the April Supps.

The Friday Nighter Championship is back. The 2023 Championship will track NOV and SOP participants. 

NWRC Friday Nighters start at the Eastgate Park & Ride, 14200 SE Eastgate Way, Bellevue WA 98007.

Registration is open from 6:45pm-7:15pm. The cost is $30, payable by cash only at registration. There is no online registration or electronic payment portal. If you plan to run the May Friday Nighter and would like to pre-pay electronically (via Zelle), please email michaeldaily@earthlink.net with Appetizer in the subject line.

You can download a registration form here. Any minors participating in the event will need to bring a completed minor waiver as well. These forms will also be available at the registration vehicle on site.

Come on out and join us. Bring your friends!
