Colorado RallyCross - Ladies & Gentlemen: Start Your Engines! -

 

Are you guys excited yet or what!?!? I know I am, the next 11 months of your lives has been released!!! Find out where you'll be spending it and more at our site!

Colorado RallyCross - The 2012 CO R-X Schedule: Read It, Know It, Live It! -

 

Come check out the newest addition to Colorado RallyCross. Here you'll find all of your needs for looking good on the track, at the office or while sitting at home playing Richard Burns Rally. Currently there are printed Colorado RallyCross logo-ed Men's AND Women's shirts, hats, Hoodies, Water bottles, mugs, and most importantly STICKERS and business cards. If you see something on the site that we currently don't offer but your interested in it then send me an email at Store@ColoradoRallyCross.org.

While we only collect a very small percent which that goes back to our non-profit organization, unfortunately we can't control the prices, so some of it might come off as a bit steep looking. And if you do have any issues then please contact Zazzle and not us, for once again we are just the middle men.

If you placed an order for a Brown or Orange Silk screen shirt a few months back and your not interested in what the store has to offer, then once again let us know at Store@ColoradoRallyCross.org. Once there's 12 or more orders then we can place them. Those shirt start out at $16.75 each and go down the more that are ordered.

And if you ordered a Polo or Hat a few months back then contact Store@ColoradoRallyCross.org about them. The prices came to $25 for the embroidered Polo shirts and $17 for the embroidered hats.

The Colorado RallyCross Logo was created and provided by the great and honorable Ken Cashion. We ask that you respect it, and the available selections without changing them too much. Thank you for helping keep the "Brand look" the same for better group recognition.

Are you excited, I sure am! Because we only have 4 more days to take care of all those little projects we've been procrastinating on all Winter before the start of the 2012 RallyCross season at CORE!

Be sure to save your time in line and everyone else's by pre-registering. As we've said before prices have gone up $5 to help cover equipment costs, so it's now $40 for SCCA Members and $50 for Non-Members. And when you are signing up for your SCCA memberships make sure you put yourself down under the Continental Divide Region, for we haven't been part of the Colorado Region for a couple of seasons now.

Also make sure that you get to grid and your worker positions on time. I can't stress enough how much this cuts out a full run per heat. Yes you heard me right, that can cut out 2 extra runs a day! Timing will be confirming with every corner that you at your spot at 10am and again after lunch at the time which is announced to be back by. If you are not there when they've checked your corner then your first run of that session will be marked as a DNF. So please help your times and our schedule times by being on time.

And lastly don't forget we will all be at CORE again on Sunday morning for the Test-N-Tune/School. It will be $35 per person which will cover your entry fee to the park as well as seat time at both the School and Test-N-Tune. There is no need to register before hand, just find Eric as usual and sign up with him the morning of.

7:00 AM to 8:00 AM Course set-up
8:00 AM to 9:00 AM Registration
8:00 AM to 9:00 AM Tech inspection
9:00 AM to 9:30 AM Drivers meeting

Thank you everyone who made it out this weekend. There was a great turn out of both new and old faces which we hope to see more of soon! All of which were laying out great times and were taking care of what needed to be done on the workers end. Thank you ALL for showing up ON TIME after lunch, we were able to send the first car out much faster then we have in a long time.

For those of you who missed out on the school it was a great setup which allowed the students to focus on 1 of 5 features for 30 minutes so that they can get plenty of time to nail it before moving on to the next one. And nail it they did! Because during lunch the features magically turned into a full on RX course where they were able to see how everything the learned through the day links together.

Thank you Aaron Miller, Michael Miller & Angelica Miller for your great work at taking of getting the afternoon course setup! It was such a relief to see that we had 15 minutes to go and it was all taken care of while we had to go tend to some other problems.

Thank you also to Max Johnson for coming out to not only instruct but setting up the Test and Tune course while we were running around in our usual frantic fashion.

Max Lawson & Susan Lawson did a great job at taking care of the Test & Tune course and keeping everything in check down there leaving us to not have any cares with it. You guys also did a great job at setting keeping the afternoon course in check while placing your typical smoking fast times!

And none of Sunday could have been made possible without the years of dedication and knowledge learned by our finely tuned instructors Aaron Miller, Eric Genack, Eric Adams, Max Johnson, Peter Zlamany, Tommy Kilpatrick, Will MacDonald who took their day off to help others have a better time out playing with us.

Don't forget the Colorado RallyCross moves to the USTDS for their 2nd event on April 14th for more fun in the sun. Preregistration will be open the week before, so PLLLEAAASE get on there and register early so we can have everyone entered into timing otherwise it takes much longer to do the morning of which means later starts, fewer runs and later finish times. The CORX is one big living and breathing group, if everyone keeps on top of helping it run healthy then everyone will have a great day.

Can't wait to see you all next time!

 

Hey Gang,
It's that time of the month again where we get one last weekend to make those last dashes to the auto parts store and get those rushed shipping items on the car before heading off to the USTDS on the 14th. After 1 event in the books our current leaders will be trying their best to fight off the rest of the pack which will be breathing down their necks over the next 8 months to earn the all coveted RallyCross season trophies.

But to finish first you must first finish and to keep focused on everything else you should start by pre registering so that you can have more time to get in plenty of course walks after you've passed tech.

And remember, we all love getting in as many runs as possible. So to help us do that make sure to show up early (Best to get there around 7), get registered, pass tech, get in your course walks so that we can get the drivers meeting going as early as possible. And after the meeting get to your car in grid or yourself to your worker position so that the first car is truly off the line by 10.

We can't wait to see you all out there!
