Title: Summary of Navigational Events?
Post by nhibbert on 03/19/4 at 16:52:57

As I'm new to rallying (but currently fourth as a co-driver in the ORRC novice standings ;D ), I don't know much about the details of upcoming events. Some have informative web sites, some don't have anything at all on-line. Could someone give me a short run down of the events? i.e. SOW - 8 to 10 hrs overnight, Bancrorft area, Simple instructions. SC - 4 to 6 hrs day time, Creemore area, tulip diagrams.

Thanks in advance.

Here's a complete list of events:

JJ January Jaunt Rally 03 Jan TAC
SSS Subaru Snowy Safari Rally 31 Jan PMSC
SOW Subaru Ontario Winter Rally 21 Feb MLRC
SC Ski Country Rally 06 Mar KWRC
SRO Spring Run Off Rally 17 Apr PMSC
DO Discover Ontario Car Rally 29 May TAC
BL Blossom Rally 19 Jun KWRC
AM Automapic Rally 17 Jul KWRC
RR Rideau Run Rally 28 Aug MCO
MLM Maple Leaf Madness 25 Sep MLRC
NL Northern Lights Rally 16 Oct KWRC
LH Lanark Highlands Rally 30 Oct MCO
PP Presidents Prize Rally 13 Nov PMSC
FB Frostbite Rally 06 Dec KWRC

I'll use the term navex instructions to mean "non-simple" instructions with the understanding that each event will have several levels of difficulty available depending on class.

SRO - afternoon around 4 hrs; navex instructions; Cobourg area

DO - afternoon (I think); Brantford; navex instr (see Toronto Autosport Club web site); 3-5 hours

BL - afternoon; navex; Cambridge/Kitchener area; 3-5 hours

AM - afternoon; navex; 3-5 hours; Woodstock/London

RR - afternoon; navex; 4 hours; either Tweed or Perth (I am organizer)

MLM - north -west of Toronto (I think); new event but probably navex; afternoon/evening??

NL- afternoon; navex; 3-6 hours; Woodstock/London/Kitchner

LH - evening/night; 4-8 hours; simple instructions; Almonte/Perth and north ; snow possible

PP - normally evening rally; navex; 4 hours or so; Peterborough; snow likely

Frostbite - all night; 8 hours; simple instr; Frontenac county (ie north of Kingston) start/finish probably Maberly again; snow and ice likely
