We're getting all the info for the 2013 season of RallyCross at PC. It's our seventh year hosting events and look forward to anyone who has never come and checked it out/participated. Come out and go for a free ride with us. The following dates will comprise our season at Prairie City.

March 8-10
April 12-14
May 24-26
June 14-16

Also happy to meet up with folks out there and give them a sample of what a rallycross is anytime. I can set up a course so you can see what all the fun is without hurting your car.

My friend Tyler and I have worked with Brent many times out at PC. He always puts on a good rally.

I'll try to make it out to a few Brent, even if it's just to help.

Thanks Kyle, btw, I have some trophies for you and Tyler. I'll have to drop them off when I head over to Woodland to visit with Jan(the FAST old Swedish guy who had the '74 Mini).

Recommend a wheel/tire setup? I'm on some 18inch rotas right now, don't know if that would be runnable without messing them up.

Stock is a good starting point. That is the beauty of rallycross, when you first start it's not about the car, it's all about the driver, so if you have the factory tires and wheels, throw'em on and come have some fun.

Eh, i do not have the stockers.. wish i did right now.. lol rallyX has always looked fun.. I used to autox alot.. time to try out this AWD thing! Maybe ill borrow some stockers from someone.

like the idea of renting out a car is possible, maybe I should consider renting out some extra sets of tires and wheels I own.

This sounds like a lot of fun. Are there classes or is it "run what ya brung"? Prarie city website doesn't seem to have the dates listed yet. Where can we get more info?

Trakjunky

There you go! $10 a day wheel setup rental.. lol youll have to have 5x100 and x114.3 though.

Don't freak out, but this link will take you to the SCCA RallyCross rule set.

Just think of it as a run what ya brung and come out and have fun. You can also find the class structure there, but again, don't worry, come on out and play in the dirt. If you like it, then you can start tweaking your car for the class you want to compete in. Simply put Stock=Stock, Prepared=mild suspension and non internal power stuff and Mod=everything else.

As for dates and PC website, they will post our dates when they are official, but for now, I will be able to answer questions about more info. I'll be setting up prereg info at myautoevents.com usually month or more in advance of the events.

Keep asking questions and let me know if you want to check out PC anytime.

The wheel bolt patterns is possible, but even with the deals I can get on tires, $10 a day would be a little low. Maybe the fee could also be based on the type of tires, all seasons/snows/rally. More importantly, the need to not wash the dirt and mud from the wheels before heading home, that alone is worth $5-10 at a car wash.

btw, what is your bolt pattern?

Trakjunky

I was just suggesting a price to keep cost low for noobs. But you are right. I've got an 09 Wrx. 5x100.

I was out at PC today riding. Tried to find where the course is setup, where exactly are the events held?

pomspeed

We hold them in the western part of the 4x4/VORRA area. We use the timing tower with the course area north and east of that, down to the area around the water fill/restroom area to the east.

I spent a few days out at PC last summer figuring out a nice long course. I found that sticking to the outside of the 4x4 area was generally the smoothest path, and also made for a very long "lap".

A little video of me out there in my Legacy. Prarie City- Hoopty - YouTube

And one from the first 1/4 of the "lap" (just as you enter the 4x4 gate on the right hand side). Sorry for the shakey video- this was handheld and iphone. I was the only car in the 4x4 area at this time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Np8kG...ature=youtu.be
