I will register for my slot thanks for the info.

 

Sounds great, can't wait to see you there!

 

After only 3 events there's already been lots of close battles throughout the 2012 season. And now it's time to move them to everyone's 2nd favorite event of the year which all SCCA members are invited to, the Colorado RallyCross National Challenge! After always being held at the USTDS, this year Colorado's challenge will be moved to CORE for a change in scenery and dust. For Further details on cost, times, rule changes and requirements please see the forum page. There's LOTS of IMPORTANT information in there, so read through it a couple of times. Don't forget to preregister and if possible please show up on Friday to go through Registration and Tech.

We can't wait to see you all out there!

 

WHOA! This month’s National Challenge at Colorado Off Road Extreme was just that, EXTREME! We ended the weekend with 45 drivers who all got 16 runs in which is an amazing 720 runs, not including re-runs, for the weekend! Granted we did start earlier than usual, but 6 runs before 1 PM on Sunday is still amazing! And it's all thanks to every competitor for being where they needed to be on time. Let's keep that kind of motivation up for the rest of the season! Friday afternoon also saw a great turn out of competitors who turned out to help keep Saturday's schedule on time by getting through registration and tech the day before. And by doing so they also saw countless numbers of practice runs which was going so smooth and relaxing that it ended up being left open for an hour extra. Saturday also saw a great turn out of folks who mounted up their high beam auxiliary lights and gotten in tons of none timed runs. Then as the evening got dark and things claimed down, the camping chairs came out for a good evening of watching a movie on the side of the bus under the stars.

Coming up next we will be headed back to CORE on July 7th for more fun in the sun. And if the temperatures will be anything like they have been then bring lots of water to help you keep hydrated and focused on the task at hand, catching Tommy. Also don't forget all of those things our Mothers have been telling us for years, sunscreen, sunglasses and hats. As usual, CORE will have their great food menu available on site to fill our stomachs appetites.

And lastly, coming up at the end of July will be the return of the PPIR Gravel/Tarmac special. And while the course design is Top Secret, believe me you will not want to miss out on it. So get the word out and bring lots of fiends to come play for we will need as many hands on course in order to cover what will be a very long and exciting course.

 

With the weather forecast calling for rain throughout the day, there was still nothing to prevent 50 drivers from missing out on the 5th event of the season which was held at CORE on the 7th. And it should be noted that most of them only had 2 events or fewer under their belts!! But after the monsoon and mudfest scare, it turned out to be a great day with very few areas that were even wet plus amazingly cool temperatures all day long. Which helped create some very closes times and some very large 1st place gaps.

And now with 5 amazing events in the bag, we are now quickly coming up to the halfway mark for the season which will be held at PPIR on July 21st. Which will not only mark the first of our great Dirt/Tarmac specials of the year, but pending on the number of pre-registered drivers it will also be one of the longest courses we've ever had as we add our old hilly stomping ground back into the mix! So as we've been stressing these past few weeks, the one and only way we can pull off an event of this scale depends solely on you and your fellow drivers getting the preregister numbers good and high so we can know there will be enough corner workers to go around. So with that said, head on over and let the auto-fill put the easy stuff in while you use your secret decoder ring to fill in the bottom part. And if the number of drivers are anything like the record breaking one we had last year at PPIR then be sure to get their early so you can get through both registration and tech without holding up the start time.

Can’t wait to see you all there!

 

Here's a little motivation to help you all get registered.

This just in! On September 16th there will be another School/Test Day at CORE, which is the day after the next event there. So this will be a great time to get some tips from your peers and get lots of laps in before heading out to the National Championship! More info on the school can be found here.

 

thanks

 

Don't forget we have our next event on Saturday the 15th followed by another Test-n-Tune/School on Sunday the 16th both will be at CORE. So get your preregisters in soon and if you plan on going to school please select "attending" on our Facebook event page so I know how many teachers we will need.

After 11 great events in the 2012 season, the snow has started falling again which is usually a sign that we are coming up to the last event of the season which this year will be next Saturday on November 3rd at CORE. While there are still many season standings that are set in stone, there are still several which are up in the air. And even if you're not in one of those fighting spots then it'll still make for a great time to come out and play.

As usual please help us keep the registration line moving quickly so we can get the dust storm kicking up early by pre-registering at ColoradoRallyCross.org

We can't wait to see you all out there for our farewell to the 2012 season!
