Middle Fork
Road Rally

Sunday, August 16th 2009    
 

Registration Noon to 12:35 PM
County Market at
Sunnycrest in Urbana
 

Rallymaster: Jonathan Flora
 
 
Special Information
The rally will be approximately 100-120 miles running to the NE corner of Champaign County and a bit into Vermilion county. The majority of the rally will be on paved roads, however there will be some gravel and likely freshly chipped roads. This will be a fast paced rally covering a fair amount of ground between major legs with a couple of short breaks. Who knows, you may even get a daytime view of some of the roads that will be used on this year's Nocturnal ½ Returns Rally in November. The Middle Fork runs from the northwest toward the southeast across the Vermilion watershed map above.
 
 
Registration Info
The entry fee will be $20.00 per team. We recommend that you register close to the time registration opens. This will give you time to do the paperwork including certifying that your vehicle's/driver's insurance meets the appropriate state's standards, that the driver has a valid license, that your rally vehicle is being used with the permission of the owner, is in safe operating condition, is on the road legally, and that all its operational items such as lights, turn signals, brakes, horn, tires, mirrors, seat belts, windshield wipers and windshield washer are in proper working order. It will also give you time to read the rally's general rules and to talk to other rally participants. This last is especially important if you've never run a rally before.
 
 
Don't Have a Driver or Navigator?
If you don't have a partner to drive or navigate for you just come by yourself. At almost every rally there are folks who come alone then team up with someone else to run the event. If you are lucky you'll have a chance to team up with someone who has some rally experience. Sometimes that increases your chances of winning a trophy. If you're only slightly less lucky you'll get to run with someone who has no rally experience and have twice the fun as you discover what rallying is all about. At the very worst (which almost never happens) there will be no one to partner with and you will get the chance to work some of the checkpoints and see how everyone is doing as the event progresses.
