Rally in New England 9/30/06

[revolvoct]

Tour of the Litchfield Hills has 2 parts. First a SCCA Regional Trap Rally, second a nice leisurely tour.

For those familiar with rallying, the trap event :???: has some great "parlor games" and beautiful scenery and runs about 160 miles. For those that have never tried rallying, the tour :-D is straight forward route following, all paved and some of the most beautiful overlooks and roads that northwest Connecticut has to offer, running about 75 miles.

All that you need is a car and a friend.

This is a great excuse to take the BRICK for a ride.

your actually alive!?

Adrian--NO

The tour has no speed, just passage controls and questions to answer. No dirt aimed at "tuners".

The trap event is about speed limit but with 25%+/- dirt.

The events are running on a saturday, so the speeds will be reasonable ( not slow) but within speed limits.

This is a great learning, refreshing event leading up to "Covered Bridge" in Vermont in November. The January event is "spirited", but is restricted so no "novices" are allowed.

OK, it's September. The rallys will happen on the 30th.

There is a best club trophy (club defined really loosely).

Entry fee is $30. Start and end is Naugatuck, CT

Bring your favorite passanger and enjoy.

Fliers and entry forms available by email CFS@sundblademedical.com
Please put "Rally Entry" in subject line (no quotes of course).

It looks like the BMW, Alfa and Ferarri clubs will be there.

Both courses were set up using my 240, the tour was checked for clearance by an Alfa Spyder.
