All you need is a helmet, $35 and minimum of mom’z car for the night or your Subaru, Evil-8 or whatever bucket you are ready to christen to the dirt. You owe it to the rally gods to put your car in it’s proper setting – in the dirt and slide-ways. Bring your friends, they might laugh or take pictures, maybe they are brave enough to ride with you (just bring them a helmet too!) either way, fun for all! We have classes for various levels, even street tires!

    i've always wanted to do this, what kind of helmet do i need and where can I buy one?

    would a FF 98 ford escort on just regular tires be ok to participate?

    I have quite a few questions, can you post your email so i can ask them directly to you

      Helmet requirements: NO skateboard, snowboard, breakdancing, BMX, airplane, waterpolo, construction worker, chainsaw operator, or waterbed jumping helmets.

      A Snell SA-90, M-90, SA-95, M-95, SA-2000, or M-2000 helmet is required to compete.

      The place to buy is dependent on a couple of items: if you know your size, you could go on-line shopping.

      northstarmotorsports.com and subesports.com are some of many online spots to purchase.

      But i highly highly recommend you go visit a real live shop and try the suckers on, as there are a few brands, styles and fits.

      MOST IMPORTANT: look at your feet and if you are wearing some $100 sneakers, then you need to decide the value of your head and decide from there. You will have the helmet forever and you need to treat it with respect. You have only one shot at using your helmet; make sure you have the best you can afford. Now with that i am not going to recommend what is best for you, but we all use open face helmets so the window of shopping decisions is a bit smaller. Hope i did not scare you, but safety is of utmost value in having fun - continuously!

      Now for the fun part: I rally a 1998 FORD Escort ZX2!!!! Bring that sucker with stock tires and COME HAVE THE BLAST OF YOUR LIFE! But fair warning, once you do this rally thing, the whole world aligns and the new and true meaning of motorsports enthusiasm will overcome you! PS: Pacesetter has headers for our car!!!

      In circuit we trust, rally we must!

                          rental cars? hmm.. i like that idea!

                          i wonder if I can rent an STI..

                          is the track or course just dirt? or gravel? rocks? sand? could you guys describe this location (at the paint ball field)

                            i recently rode with my buddy at a rally X event up here and that was how he drove. yeah its a blast, but damn, it almost got us killed 3 times haha. oh yeah and we were in a ZX2 like the one in recce's poster. good luck if you guys do this, word of warning, take off your exhaust and put on a cheap straight pipe so you dont wreck that too...we forgot
