November 3, 200421 yr This was just posted on the ORG message board: Oregon Region's RallyCross #5 November 14th, 2004 Hillsboro, Oregon With close battles in most of the classes for first overall in the season standings and all classes even tighter for the other podium positions, this the last event of season should prove to be exciting at the least! To top it off the course design has been done by last season's Oregon Region Open Class RallyCross Champion, Charles Buren. This forward thinking course design includes classic corner names like, "Glory" and "Spit" among others that combine creating the ultimate in RallyCross fun. The course layout bears a deep resemblance to classic rally stages that Charles has rally raced on here in the forests of the great North West. Charles had this to say about the course design, "Duuuude." with both thumbs high and "everyone will hate this part!" when pointing to a particularly challenging part of the course map. The course should indeed prove to be a great one. So come one come all the to the Oregon Region, SCCA RallyCross #5 brought to you by the Oregon Rally Group November 14, 2004 at the Washington county fairgrounds in Hillsboro Oregon. The morning run group will be Production, Group 2/5 and Truck/SUV with Open class and Production GT running in the afternoon. Morning registration will begin at 8AM and will close promptly at 8:50 AM. Drivers meeting at 9 AM Sharp! FCO at 9:15 AM. The afternoon registration will start at 12PM and run till 12:50. Drivers meeting at 1 PM Sharp! FCO at 1:15 PM.

November 4, 200421 yr Author Can't afford to run so oh well there is always next year even if it is or isn't SCCA (havn't heard anymore word on that have you Ed?) sanctioned I haven't heard of any sanctioning change for rallyX, but SCCA didn't give the clubrally guys much advance warning.
November 4, 200421 yr I haven't heard of any sanctioning change for rallyX, but SCCA didn't give the clubrally guys much advance warning. yeah I know about that and I heard talk that Rally America wanted RallyX also and they were talking about it if it was staying with SCCA or not
November 5, 200421 yr I plan on being there. But I need to start doing a rain dance. An inch or two that weekend would be most great
November 13, 200421 yr Author An inch or two of rain; I hope you've got oars on that wagon! I would prefer wet also, but I do so much like the dry, fast courses. I will try to remember to bring the carb for you Jason. I plan on being there. But I need to start doing a rain dance. An inch or two that weekend would be most great
November 14, 200421 yr It looks like Murphy's Law has bit me in the butt again. The battery in the GL only reads 0.45 VDC so unless I can gather the bones for a new battery or if the charger can get it up by morning..... i'm out this weekend.
November 14, 200421 yr I'm gonna come bang on your door... remember I have the battery from the BRAT Yay, Craig's GL runs again... had a fuel leak, we fixed that. The battery fit perfectly and amazing wasnt dead even though its been sitting out of the brat for months and months and months......
November 14, 200421 yr I won't be making it I just bought a dirt bike yesterday and I need to go to olympia tomorrow maybe...
November 14, 200421 yr I won't be making it I just bought a dirt bike yesterday and I need to go to olympia tomorrow maybe... Slacker
November 14, 200421 yr Mmmm nice and slippery out there. VERY tight course, sometimes full lock steering wasnt enough. Everyone took out their share of cones. I rarely hit cones and racked up at LEAST 5 or more over my runs. Nice seeing everyone again. ---------- And to the mystery donor... thank you :grin: I guess it was kinda good karma for me letting Craig use my brat battery to run his wagon.
November 15, 200421 yr yeah that course was VERY VERY Technical............... a lil toooooo technical for my likes the only rigs that were doing good was basicaly a baja bug cause of the rear e-brake, short wheelbase, Weight, and turning radius
