More dirty fun: RallyCross

It wasn't long before I got wind of the first ever SCCA RallyCross event in northern California. Rally-X as it's called, is much like AutoCross, but on gravel. The idea is cars compete one at a time, on a course set on gravel and defined by cones. Courses are typically about 30 seconds long, each competitor gets three runs and the times are added up for your daily score. This was a LOT of fun!! About 60 cars came ranging from stock street cars to stage rally prepared 400hp monsters. I didn't do so well, but I had a hell of a good time. The one thing I did learn was that I still had no idea what I was doing on loose surfaces, but it was fun nonetheless!
