Chapter Events:
June 22: Fun Rally
If you are looking for a great way to enjoy your car on some beautiful Middle-Tennessee backroads, you definitely won't want to miss this event! We have a fantastic route planned out out that departs from Jim Warren Park in Franklin and weaves through Williamson, Rutherford, and Maury Counties. We return to Jim Warren Park as the final destination and then celebrate with trophies, bratwursts, and refreshments! This rally is designed to be a fun and low-key event, so no rally experience is necessary if you want to participate. Just feel free to come out and drive the route at your own pace and enjoy the gorgeous scenery and winding roads!
The rally will be loosely-based on a TSD format, in which the object is to get from point A to point B in a precise amount of time, so you will most likely want to have a navigator with you who can help you to with directions and pace your drive. Bonus questions related to visible landmarks will also be added to the route, which if answered correctly, will help you to earn timing bonuses when we tally the final results. Keep in mind that simply 'ignoring' the speed limit is frowned upon and will work against you... We will be traveling at legal speeds on public roads, and targeting a specific arrival time at the rally end point. The entire route can be comfortably completed in less than 3 hours.
***You will need to register for the event before showing up, as it is important we have an accurate count of participants BEFORE the day of the rally. Registration will be handled through Motorsport reg through this link.
Final registration on the day of the event will be open from 8:45am to 9:45 am at Jim Warren Park and the first car out will stage promptly at 10am. There is a mandatory drivers/navigators meeting at 9:45am following registration. ***Note that we are meeting at the smaller park/playground area close to the hwy 96/Boyd Mill intersection and not the larger park with the ball fields.
Registration will be limited to 30 cars, so be sure to sign up early.
We look forward to seeing you there!
