Some helpful hints for our events:

  • Always come out with an open mind, and be prepared to have fun and enjoy the scenic back roads
  • Come with a full tank of gas, while our events are normally less than 60 miles long, sometimes people are known to go a little further, if they make a wrong turn. Remember we do give out an award for Dead Last But Finished.
  • While looking for the correct answers to our questions on the Gimmick Rallies, can be tricky at times, never turn around to backtrack to look for them. While you will gain 25 points for each missed answer (low score wins), adding extra miles to the distance traveled on the event will more than off-set, the points you save by getting the answer to the question correct, because we add 100 points for each mile over or under the official route.
