Anyone around Ohio, there's a Rally-X coming up on March 1.

Just yesterday (2/9), I entered my 1993 AllTrac and placed 3rd in class. It's a lot of fun to beat Subaru's on their own turf and sling your car all over the place. There's a good mix of tight corners, sweeping corners, and fast segments. Definitely a great location to try out your cars. I just ran snow tires, with stock suspension (but I wish I had stiffer springs and better dampers).

If anyone is in Michigan, there's a Rally-X coming up this weekend (2/16). I'll try to be there as well. I've never run this location before, but Detroit Region SCCA is well-organized and this should be a blast.

Events are $30 - $35 for SCCA members, about $10 extra for non members.

Unfortunately, the rally-x was canceled after the first half of the morning session, so I couldn't run. They had 8" of snow that melted from Friday morning to Saturday morning, which then turned the field into a swamp. The 2wd cars (including some Honda R&D newbies in a 1wd Prelude ITS car turned rally-x car) were getting stuck, the 4wd cars with all-season tires were barely going. I wanted to run, but it wouldn't have been much fun anyhow.
Anyone up for ice-racing in Saginaw next weekend? (weather permitting, of course)
