This series continues to provide an opportunity for future rally stars to get their feet wet. No special vehicle preparation is required - regular street cars are permitted.

With thanks to our sponsors:



New Sponsors: We welcome Can-Jam Motorsports as our title sponsors. We look forward a great partnership over the next few years. The guys from Can-Jam are longtime competitors and world class Subaru performance specialists!

New Website: Well, an updated one, what with a new sponsor I have had to update the website. With a whole new MLRC website coming soon there will be a new Rallycross site to come along with it.

New schedule: This might be difficult for some of you but I have had to move forward the start time of the day. This is for a few reasons. I really want to get the most out of the day and get as many runs in as possible. I also don't want to run to late into the day so we can get home in a reasonable time. I believe this will get a guaranteed 6 runs in in a day.

January Update - v1.1

Helmets:

I haven't been that strict on helmets in the past, but this year I will want to see all the helmets at the first event and, as they do at Ice Races, be adding a sticker to show that it has been checked.

If of course you don't come to the first event, I will check your helmet at the first event you attend or if you change helmets.

I assume that this will be ok with everyone.

Thank you
James

Today I checked out the Rallycross course in Bancroft. Conditions are excellent - there is about a 10 cm deep covering of snow over the course. Snowmobiles have been running on a lot of the course, resulting in it being well packed. It is very smooth - in the Fall we filled in the two big dips that were in the back section of the winter course. Cars with stock suspensions should have no problem.

Just returned from preparing the Rallycross course in Bancroft. Conditions are fantastic - loads of snow (about 20 cm). We spent about three hours with the loader and my truck grooming the course.

Photos to follow.

January Update - v3.0

Results:

Yes that's right people, the results are already done and posted:

http://www.mlrc.ca/rallycross/results/2012/RX_jan22_web.pdf

Thank you:

This goes out to all of you for getting up earlier and coming out, I didn't hear one complaint and I think that everyone sees that us just starting a little earlier gets more runs in and thus more fun all round! I have a feeling that we will get 7 runs in the summer!

I would like to get everyone there and registered by 0900 though, this then does give me time to sort out car numbers as assigning numbers to a car with 2 or 3 numbers is not as easy as it looks. We can then get going right at 0915 for the drivers meeting and start racing!

February:

I say this every month, but please sign up online it just makes life easier and you save money. I can then also order the right amount of Pizza.

Great day of Rallycross yesterday in perfect winter conditions.

A word of advice to competitors - yesterday when we rescued some of you from the snowbanks, we had you back on the course and going very quickly - often within 45 seconds, but what slowed the operation in many cases was the lack of good tow hooks. So if you want to be competitive, be sure your car has a good strong hook both front and rear.

Thank you Ross and anyone else who was part of pulling people out of the snowbanks. I sadly had to use your service, but you were quite quick at it, so thanks!

I'm sure you got in enough practice of pulling people out on the weekend to last a year Cheesy
