Default Sho-ho-ho-Down Rallycross 12/22

Tampa Rally and Performance with our friends at east bay speedway have acquired the ENTIRE FACILITY for this event... We will have our Rally cross which will be longer and faster then prior events. depending on turnout someone coming out can expect 8 Full runs on a minimum of .8 mile course with 2 laps per run we can expect 1.6 miles per run..

in addition with schedule permitting we will be offering fun runs and open track laps after the event. open track laps will be run in TIME ATTACK fashion.

East bay will be holding Flat track motorcycles the week prior so the track is being re-graded to a glass like smoothness. this is a once a year opportunity. normally to have them grade the track like this costs us another $1000

Sho-ho-ho-down Rallycross


Sho-ho-ho-down Rallycross
$30 for Members of Tampa Rally or FAST $35 for non-members, spectators are only $3 and will be eligible for track tours during lunch.

non-driving workers are allways free and will recieve lunch on the club.

With the Flat track grading track tours and track time will allow some tail out shenanigans...

Register quick because at 40 competition entries we are closing registration. this event will fill up! so register early.

If the event does not fill up I welcome on site registration, however with that being said. it's best to pre-reg I am capping at 40 to make sure everyone gets enough seat time. (pre registration gets secured spot) I will only accept a minimum of 8 runs and fun runs. with much more then 40 cars the workers start to get punchy. these events are about fun and more seat time is the best way to offer that. The weather should be awesome, not too hot, and we are the only show in town that day. So I expect a HUGE turnout.

Correct it allows Competition tires, headers, intakes, piggyback ECU etc. anything above that: Lexan windows, seam welding, is modified, if it's a logged booked rallycar we usually put it right into modified there modded street cars are many times prepared.

It dosent really matter as you'll see driver is MUCH more important then car prep. it's the opposite of autocross where you want to drive right at 10/10ths rallycross you want to drive fast but controlled because an overcooked turn or spin effects your overall time. it's much more challenging.

How hard is this on the car? I've seen a few rallycross vids that looked like they really beat up the car, but you say that this track is graded flat so I'd think it wouldn't be as bad. I'd hate to throw something out of whack right before the Auto-X school.

Any advice for a total newbie? Any good links to read up on it before I take the plunge and sign up? Also, what is involved in becoming a member of FAST?
