Friday, Friday, FRIDAY! This coming Friday, October 9th is the last Friday Nighter of the season, the October Friday Nighter, presented by Rainier Auto Sports Club. Mark Nolte is the rallymaster, and he calls it “Insert Rally Name Here”. Mark has been putting on rallies as long as anyone, and usually picks out good roads. Mark says that it is a fun run, with no traps, that heads out North and ends at the Pizza Hut in South Everett. It features a nice collection of curvy roads and will give everyone the opportunity to drive in the dark, and possibly rain. October and November rallies around here are notorious for drawing bad weather and dark conditions, which often adds to the challenge.
Registration for this novice oriented event opens at 6:45 PM at the Eastgate Park and Ride in Bellevue. First Car out is at 7:31. There will be a drivers meeting around 7:10. Come on out and join us for a very enjoyable route and some excellent pizza. Remember that the bring a new team and get free entry offer is still good this month. Bring some friends and get free entry!
Novice and SOP Championships will be decided and awarded on Friday.
We hope to see you there!

Hi, James! Registration is the day of the event at the start location. You need a street legal car, a driver and a navigator, a clip board, a pen or pencil, a seconds reading watch, and a light by which to read the instructions. The rules can be downloaded from our documents page.

Thanks Kelly! I just have a few more questions.
Are there fees involved? and is co-driver required? Will this be paved road only or does it involve multi surface roads?
Kelly Smith says
Hi, James!
A navigator or co-driver is required. It is difficult at best and dangerous at worst to read instructions while you drive. The event will be on all paved roads. The entry fee is $20.
