Title: 2010 MLRC FourStar Rallycross Championship!!
Post by English on 12/27/9 at 13:02:05

Welcome to the 2010 MLRC FourStar Rallycross Championship!!

ONLINE ENTRY: http://www.mlrc.ca/rallycross/register/

The experience and the excitement of rally driving at a really low cost!!

Four Star Motorsports and the Maple Leaf Rally Club are proud to bring you yet another rallycross season: the 2010 MLRC FourStar Rallycross Championship.

The rallycross Championship will be run as the same as last year.

1, MLRC will be running the full championship.

2, We will be holding 5 events and the Championship will be over the entire year with four out of five races counting towards your end result.

3, Price Changes. To make our lives easier at MLRC, we are changes the pricing for online entries (credit card and cash). Now, it will be $45 to sign up online and $60 onsite. ($10 refund for MLRC Members)

4, Timing Changes, yes yes yes, I know that it is a early morning for most of you, but if we get as many people as last year, I really want to have enough time for every one to get as many runs in as possible. Registration will now open at 9am and close at 10:15am with the drivers meeting at 10:30am with the parade lap following.

DATES AND LOCATIONS FOR 2010:

  • January 24th - BANCROFT - Fish and Game Club / Golton Stage

  • February 28th - BANCROFT - Fish and Game Club / Golton Stage

  • July 11th - BANCROFT - Fish and Game Club / Golton Stage

  • September 26th - BANCROFT - Fish and Game Club / Golton Stage

  • October 17th - BANCROFT - Fish and Game Club / Golton Stage


Rallycross Website is not fully up and running yet, but most information will be staying the same, except for the dates and the costs as noted above: www.mlrc.ca/rallycross

This series continues to provide an opportunity for future rally stars to get their feet wet. No special vehicle preparation is required - regular street cars are permitted. The low entry fees and minimal car prep mean that the Rallycross series will provide an affordable introduction to rallying for drivers of all budgets and skill levels.

Vehicles are divided into four classes to level the playing field and provide good competition within each group. Class one includes all front wheel drive cars, Class two is all rear wheel drive. Class three is for non-turbo four wheel drive and last but not least, Class four to for all the turbo four wheel drive cars. All colours, shapes and sizes of cars can compete in rallycross.

Contact our championship coordinator, James Drake, at rallycross@mlrc.ca for more information.

We look forward to seeing you soon!!

James

The RallyX home page says Bancroft for the February event. Which is correct?

Title: Re: 2010 MLRC FourStar Rallycross Championship!!
Post by ChrisH on 01/12/10 at 08:59:54

Does anyone know the condition of the course; deep soft snow, hard packed, ice, slush?

Trying to figure out what tires would be best.

Thanks,
Chris

Post by Yopofun on 01/12/10 at 09:54:31

It will really depend on the weather that day. From what I remember last year, they plowed the course a day or so before the race if I recall, which left a hard packed icy layer, which then got torn up as the day went along.

Definitely won't be deep snow, and if you do come across that, you're jumped a snowbank, and are way off course  ;D

Title: Re: 2010 MLRC FourStar Rallycross Championship!!
Post by nhibbert on 01/12/10 at 21:48:55

If it's being plowed now there will probably be a good solid (icey) base.  If it's being plowed just before the event it may be soft and we'll get down to frozen dirt by the end of the day. If it's snow the night before or during the event it may be deep snow.


James - Is the course being plowed now or are you going to do it just before the event?

Just returned from Bancroft - the RallyCross course is beckoning you to be there on Sunday. Perfect snow conditions - just below my knee with no sign of ice. The course has been plowed with very friendly snowbanks.

More snow predicted before Sunday. Don't miss it.

Photos to follow.

"PC Load Letter" is an error message encountered when printing on older HP Laser jets.The actual meaning of the message is misleading, "PC" is a two-character status code that stands for "paper cassette",the tray that holds blank paper for the printer to use."Load", in this context, is an instruction to refill the paper tray.If indeed there is anything left of the printer to fill........  :-/

Not a shame at all James.

The Burnt River facility is NOT suitable to Woosies like myself who
DO NOT LIKE the cold. There are NO warm facilities at Burnt River.
It is best left for a SUMMER event.

The Bancroft location is PERFECT for the winter events.

Thanks for anticipating this on behalf of all us Woosies out here.

Bancroft has had about 15 cm of new snow in the last three days with a bit more predicted. The temperature should remain just right to keep it great for the RallyCross tomorrow. See you there!

Post by corywannamaker on 03/29/10 at 17:45:21

So i was just thinking and thought that I would throw it out there and see what everyone else thought. What if for one of the summer races we ran the track backwards. Either way it is a great day just thinking that for the guys that run the track all the time it would be a completely different track if it where run backwards. Any way just a thought let me know what you think.

Newbie question: I currently have my summer tires on (on BBS rims, and I'm not a big fan of the tires), my only other set are my Winter tires on stock rims... am I better to switch to my winters for the race, or would I be ok on my summers?

Winters

Title: Re: 2010 MLRC FourStar Rallycross Championship!!
Post by RyanHuber on 07/09/10 at 11:21:33

For sure the winter tires will give you better grip, just be sure to have your summer tires as spares because it can be easy to roll a winter tire off a bead.

Nothing set up Dave yet, but I am sure I could make a call to Elmers if there is a load of people. I stay at the Bancroft B&B which is really cheap on Rallycross weekends.

Post by Dave Cotie on 09/22/10 at 15:22:12

I might just sleep in the back of my Outback. Plenty of room back there.  :)

Another question - Can we put stuff inside the F&G Club during the event? This weekend I am travelling to Bancroft and then when we are complete, I am heading to Peterborough for a 4 day conference, so I am travelling with luggage, computer etc. and I was hoping I could put that stuff inside.

I have read the rules and I know the stuff can't stay in the car. I can bring a tarp and cover it, but I am not thrilled with that idea.

Title: Re: 2010 MLRC FourStar Rallycross Championship!!

A friend and myself are towing a car up for this weekends rallyx and we were discussing maybe camping the Saturday night but I'm thinking it might be nicer to wake up in a bed rather than the ground.  Is there any places you guys would recommend to stay at for either camping or B&B/hotel?

Title: Re: 2010 MLRC FourStar Rallycross Championship!!
Post by Dave Cotie on 09/23/10 at 20:17:43

I know there is a campsite just south of the rally-x site. I think it is called the Bancroft Tent & Trailer Park.

I think James already recommended a B&B, but there are many others in the area.

oh and PS....I'm in the market for tyres, so Class One guys better look out and practice if you dont want to get a taste of the old School!

;)

I'm not sure i want to find out what oldschool tastes like....probably really starchy...I've seen what it looks like though...copious amounts of pirouetting, curtsying, and general misuse of woman's clothes :)

Here you go, a taste of the old School...this is when we only had 3 races per year:



Some one decribed the fight between myself and Earle as the same as the Sprongl/Mageer years in Canadian Rally.

If your truly SERIOUS about running  a class 1 car, I'm hanging on to the I-Mark for another season.... I'm up for the challenge, now all we need is a commitment from YOU !!!!! Maybe a little side action based on a full season, "PINKS" style.Just a little pertinent info... I like Red :)

Good job everyone!

Some people were saying to call it a day at 4 runs - I think if the plan was to do 'at least 5', that's what should be done. Rally is not just racing, it's also endurance.

I would also like to say a big thank you for finding this road (and giving us a chance to use it) to all those who worked to hard to get it done.

Really good little testing facility.
Next one should be faster and 7 kms long (each way)  ;)

Tracy and myself would just like to add our two cents to thank everyone who makes these events possible.From my first rally in 2008 i was hooked.We are looking forward to the possibilities the new Reg's for 2011 will afford us all !!!! And i would like to convey a special thanks to James for being so patient and tolerant of me, my concerns were never of a personal nature, they were only ever in the best interest of rallycross itself. Even though we are running a stages car now, we plan on being at every event. Once again Thank-You :)

Thank you to everyone who makes rallyx possible!

Tim and myself are hoping to be back for all the events next season.  Special thanks to Jeff for helping us out with advice and letting us use his rally tire spares to keep us out there racing.  We appreciate all the help!

Thanks for sharing the photos, Ryan. MLRC sure has developed a wonderful rallycross track. Love the jump!

Jim and I got to drive around it much more slowly on Saturday, the TP work day (Mike K. said we could). Even at slower speeds, in a non-rally-prepped car, you could tell it would be a total blast.

Am *very* sorry that my old rally car has gone to a new home.  :'(

Congrats to all who entered and did well, and special kudos to the organizers and workers for this great series!

I'd like to echo the thanks to the organizers and all the vounteers.

My son, William, and I had a blast this past weekend and are planning to be back and run more events in next year's series.

Too, I'd like to thank Leo for riding with me and providing coaching.  I'm a lot more comfortable with left-foot-braking now (although there's still a lot of room for improvement).

See you next year.

I figured I had a shot at 4th.

You should have loosened my lug nuts or something.  :o

Thanks to all the organizers and volunteers for putting on the RallyX - was a blast :)

The Tracker is packed away now until next time - hopefully it starts in Janurary  8-)  

I read changes in the class structure are coming: May I suggest that natural induction RWD and AWD race in the same class, that way I can flip between the two depending on track conditions  :P
