Please join us for the first event of 2009, the annual Test & Tune. Sweep & Tune with us on Sunday April 26th at Alaska Raceway Park! Course design by Brad. Since this event does not count towards the season championship, this is the best opportunity of the season to try new things and introduce new people to the sport! We will have beverages, water, coffee, and breakfast snacks. We will be taking a 1/2 hour lunch break, but lunch will not be provided. So, pack your own lunch. Please come early to allow time to settle your gear, prepare your car, and get through Tech Inspection before the Novice Walk-Thru. Remember, all loose items will need to be out of your car and your battery will need to be solidly secured- no bungee cords or other sillyness! Don't forget your driver's license.

The "Maybe This Time" Road Rally will be kicking the 2009 Championship Road Rally Season off on Sunday the 19th of April with registration starting at 1pm in the cafe inside of the CARRS at Northern Lights & Muldoon. The first car is slated to go out at 2pm as we'll be taking on the first championship event of the season! Plan for a run-time of approximately 3 hours through the northeast corner of Anchorage and we'll be ending at the LaMex Restaurant on Spenard near Fireweed.
