2010 United States Road Rally Challenge (R)

(Washington DC Region SCCA and Branded Rally Club of Maryland)
Emmitsburg, Maryland
10/22/2010 - 10/24/2010
We are honored to be hosting the 2010 USRRC, the nation’s premiere RoadRally event. This three day rally weekend, featuring events in all three SCCA RoadRally series, is intended to provide an annual venue to bring competitors of all levels  together, from occasional regional entrants to die-hard national competitors, for a weekend of fun, competition, and socialization.The weekend will begin with the first running of Chris Bean’s Rally. Blue and Gray National GTA Rally. The event will feature a relaxed pace, allowing contestants to take in the history and awe of the Civil War era. Questions throughout the event will require awareness of the General Instructions, and provide both a fun rally for newcomers as well as a legitimate test for long-time rallyists. An “armchair rally” will be provided in advance of the event to ensure all competitors are prepared for what will be expected. The rally will end in the vicinity of Gettysburg National Military Park, PA, where dinner will be provided by the committee.

Saturday will feature Eric Bloom's award-winning Catoctin Monte National Tour Rally. This event is a Monte Carlo style event, which means that teams are given the mileage for every turn and all possible controls, and the perfect Car 0 time to reach that control. Scores are generally low, as no calculations are required! For this year’s challenge, we are bringing out all the stops, so be prepared for manned controls everywhere! The rally will end with dinner, provided by the committee, at the Braddock Inn in Braddock Heights, MD.

Sunday will feature the third running of Steve Gaddy’s Lobster Traps National Course Rally. While the overall event will provide Steve’s usual challenge to experienced competitors, the majority of legs will be basic, requiring no in depth logic or intricate knowledge of the RRRs to perform correctly. This event will end around 4pm in Mount Airy, MD with a no-host dinner, and final awards. Rally Headquarters will be the Sleep Inn & Suites, 501 Silo Hill Parkway, Emmitsburg, MD 21727. Phone 301-447-0044 before September 21 and mention the US Road Rally Challenge to receive the special rate of $85/night for Thursday through Saturday nights. Note above that the rally on Sunday will end about 1 hour away, closer to the Baltimore/Washington areas. Baltimore-Washington airport is the best logistical option. The other Washington area airports and Harrisburg, PA are also viable options.
