My 12-year-old daughter has a school project to interview someone who has a job that she might want to do when she grows up. She has picked rally racing (I’m sure this choice is all my fault… watching a lot of WRC and taking her for “rally” rides in gravel and snow covered parking lots). Anyway, if anyone here drives rally for a living (I bet even “part time” drivers would be fine), and would be willing to answer some questions about it (through email), please let me know.

 

 

 

Now every time I take her to the store I get “can we rally” and she’s very excited about the RX I just got (as am I), I took her for a ride and on the first hard pull she yelled “Ohhh, fastness, fastness”. I may have created a monster.

 

 

 

Thanks

 

Gary

 

 

 

P.S. Sorry for the cross post, just looking for good exposure, moderators move as necessary.

email subiegal, she lives in seattle and rallys all the time.

Yes Subiegal is your best bet, she loves to encourage the younger set.

 

 

Watch the meet and greet page for Rally Cross Races, there will be some in the Portland area and one or two in Seattle. For $25 you can make three or four runs around the Rally Cross track and she can ride with you and be your navigator. I think there is one coming up in May.

I run my '87 RX coupe and it's a blast, my navigator is 9 but quite capable.

Where's Thorp?

Jamie will be at the Oregan Trails End rally at the end of the month, maybe you can make arrangements to meet with her down there if that isn't too late.
