Go to: www.rimoftheworldrally.com for a great time in Lancaster, CA this Fri and Sat. About 70 minutes North of LA right off HWY 14. You can't miss the Fairgrounds stadium as it's practically on the highway.

This is as close as you can get to pseudo "World Rally Car" type competition in the good old USA.

This is a Sports Car Club of America National event and there is an autocross, car show and great spectator action at the Fairgrounds where there will be side by side special stage rally action in addition to the rally stages in the Angeles National Forest. Subaru is the sponsor. You LA guys have NO reason to miss this.

I P-R-O-M-I-S-E you it's the best!

 

im right next to ya in lancaster, this will be my first rim of the world and im really looking forward to it see ya there.

 

ttt

 

I will be there!

 

any evo guys participating?

 

Not as many as Subaru WRX's and STI's. The autocross, car show, and free stuff alone are worth the price of admission. The rally is the bonus. Plenty of product vendors inside the large building and unreal side by side special stages in front of the grandstands. Best event of the year and it is close to your location. You won't be dissapointed. Checkout the May 6-7 (Fri-Sat) schedule at www.rimoftheworldrally.com. Be there for the special stages!

 

Cool... wish I lived around there... I just watched my tape of the WRC Rally Sardinia from last week, it would be great to see it (or something like it) live!

 

Last years action.

 

Should be a few, this is what I thought of off the top of my head...
George Plesek should be there in his EVO 6.5.
Probably Tim Patterson and Amy Beberbanzo each in their brand new 05 8's.
Likely Carl Jardeval in his very quick Evo 4.

YMMV,
Greg

looks like fun

 

how much of the racing do you get to see? based on what it says on the website it sounds like there is really only one viewing location.....

still would be cool to check it out and would be a nice drive from the Bay Area. though i'd be worried about the jerks who like to mess up/steal stuff from cars being there too.

 

I think there is only one viewing area that is located out in the sticks. I'll be quite happy to view the side by side racing of the super special stage from the fairgrounds on Friday night at 7pm and also Sat at 12:00, 5:40 and 9:00 pm. Autocross and car show are available in between.

Yep, haters are everywhere but I believe it is worth the risk. I think you have a better chance of damage at the movie theater than here. Hopefully, most everyone here is a car lover and not a hater. Effin' haters.

 

WORKS will be there!
