Poughkeepsie Sports car club Rallycross November 16th 2008
** See end of thread for details **
The Poughkeepsie Sports car club will hold its first ever Rallycross at Grieg Farm in Upper Red Hook, NY, on October 19th. The area we are using is a mostly flat field with no rocks. This event should be relatively safe for almost any car.
Fee will be 35 bucks for SCCA member and 50 for nonmembers.
The SCCA RallyCross rulebook is here
Sections of the rule book you should read.
6.1 ELIGIBLE VEHICLES
6.2 VEHICLE CLASSIFICATION
6.3 VEHICLE/DRIVER SAFETY
The tech inspection does not classify your vehicle, you need to know which class you fit into.
Watch here and the www.psccny.com website for further details.
Timeline:
7:00-8:30 AM
arrival, sign-in, walk in registration
7:30-8:45 AM

I'm giving it some consideration Mark. Gotta check with the family. That's the day after the VSCNA Fall drive and Malta's Halloween Havoc. Might be a very busy weekend!

Mark, do you think they'd let my Paseo run in this event?

Mike, I think the lack of windshield is a no no. Look at 6.2 of the SCCA Rallycross Rules.
That said, they might make allowances for cars which do not fit into the SCCA rules. One member has a tube frame buggy with a supercharged Jetta engine. This guy run track days at Pocono and run Autocross. He is also VERY interested in Ice Racing
Mike, do you have a window net ? I will see if I can get you in.
Maybe you should put in a windshield and run E class this winter

Thanks for checking Mark! I probably need to stay home and spend some time with the family anyway.
