2024 Regional U.S. Road Rally Challenge - USRRC

The 2024 SCCA UNITED STATES ROADRALLY CHALLENGE - THE REGIONALS

ONE WEEKEND - THREE RALLIES! 

THUNDER ROAD, Saturday, November 9, 2024, 8 hour SCCA Regional Tour Rally (Monte Carlo format). Rallymaster Joe Akerman has written a very scenic course with lots of things to keep folks on both sides of the car busy.  The Monte Carlo format will include CZT at all restarts and checkpoints, and creeping/stopping will be allowed.  Thunder Road will finish near the Start.

STAGECOACH, Sunday, November 10, 2024, 6 hour SCCA Regional Tour Rally. Stagecoach Rallymaster Larry Scholnick has written a simple straightforward course through some of the local canyons and backroads.  This rally will use the Flying restart truncate.  All checkpoints will be identified in the Route Instructions.  Stagecoach will finish near the Start.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY, Veteran's Day, Monday, November 11, 2024, 6 hour SCCA Regional Course Rally. Highway Robbery Rallymaster Jeanne English has written a moderately challenging course utilizing variable Main Road Rules and covering some very exciting and picturesque driving roads.  There will be variable main road determinants, but no more than four at any time (often only two). The Rallymaster expects most teams to do most legs correctly.  Highway Robbery will finish some distance south of Start, heading back towards Los Angeles. 

Weekend rally headquarters is the Hampton Inn and Suites, 2300 W Double Play Way, Lancaster, CA 93536.  661 940 9194. Special room rate for the rally weekend has expired, but the standard rate is not that much more.

All three of these rallies will use the Richta GPS Competitor app for timing and scoring.  The maximum penalty on all three rallies is 30 seconds (1/2 minute) per checkpoint.  The app is FREE and easy to use on any GPS-enabled smartphone.  Go to the App Store or Google Play Store, or https://richtarally.com/.  There is no need for additional timing equipment or clocks -- your Official Time shows in the app!   Also, if you want to see all the scores at the Finish, download the FREE Richta Scoreboard app also.

To facilitate scoring of the Regionals and Nationals simultaneously, the Regional version of each of the 3 rallies will use the following classes:

CLASS R1 (E/G) - Class R1 will combine Class E (Equipped) and Class G (GPS).  Normal rules for those classes will apply, as follows:

Class E (Equipped) - There are no restrictions on calculating equipment in this Class.  Typical calculating devices in this Class include:  Alfa, Chronar, Timewise, and Zeron rally computers.

Class G (GPS) - All distance information must be derived from a GPS source.  Calculating devices may be any electronic device (e.g., Simple Rally Computer type APPs and a GPS-Pulser providing distance input to a Rally computer.)

CLASS R2 (Limited) - Class R2 will be the same as the normal Class L (Limited) -  All distance information is derived from any of the following:  the vehicle’s electronic system, the vehicle’s speedometer cable, or pulses generated by the movement of the vehicle (e.g., magnets mounted to the drivetrain, of GPS devices).  Calculating devices are limited to those that require manual entry of the distance information (e.g., Curta calculators, tables, laptop computers, electronic APPs, programmable and non-programmable electronic calculators).  Readouts that continuously show the difference from either the perfect time or the perfect distance are prohibited.

CLASS R3 (Stock) - Class R3 will be the same as the normal Class S (Stock) - Any distance information used for timing calculations must be visually acquired from the vehicle’s stock, non-adjustable odometer in the stock location.  Any calculating device may be used as long as the distance information from the vehicle’s stock odometer is manually entered into the device.  GPS odometers may be used in this Class only if their information is NOT used for any timing calculations or for any determination of earliness or lateness.

CLASS R4 (Novice) - Class R4 will be limited to those who have run 3 or fewer Road Rallies of any type, and it will have the same restrictions as Class R3 (stock)
