Yes there are specators!
But, once you see one car do it you'll be like.."WHy didn't I sign up?!?!?" <---its that easy, you don't need a special car or gear Just a seat belt and a brain bucket. Its Union Fairgrounds, its soft plushy dirt for cripes sakes, no rocks. I will recommend a skid plate so your oil pan doesn't scoop dirt/mud. But you can do it without a skidplate, I have many times. And snow tires, much better (faster!!) than all season slicks. If you want to go insanely fast use gravel tires.
However, if you do not sign up to run you will have to do a run with me, or Rez, or anyone. Loaner buckets available.
Not sure what car I'm bringing. The semi-fast (in my mind) wagon, the noisey grumbly tricked out slow Forester, or the wicked slow but agile 2.2L OBS. Tough decisions!

main thing is, 'show up and have a blast'
sign up in advance. arrive early on race day to get thru tech (this is easy long as ur car passes reg ME inspection). key rallyX tech items are: all loose items out of car, batt held down tight, no/minimal play in ball joints and tie rod ends. helmets as outlined above.
then walk course with others who will talk you through the best lines. ride along with experienced rallyX pilotes, they will get you grinning like ))&^@@ and then it's time to run ur own car.
don't sweat it about 'being the fastest' cuz you won't be. just relax, look waaay down the course and keep car in 2nd gear.
like in autoX, don't look @ cones, look where you want to go. you will be turning car with the brakes as much (or more than) as the steering wheel.
that is all, see yez there!

How the hell did you know that!! I'm the one in the brownish colored sweatshirt on the top right. And I believe I actually talked with you and your brother about your car. I was impressed with your Saturn!!

So you must have known Chris Jensen? He had an 02 WRB WRX. He was the one who invited me there, we have since parted ways due to a mutual friend and I having a falling out, but he is a good guy. I also met J.R. Leigh as well, and maybe even Katnip. There were others as well, just can't remember.Yeah, I miss that car..and I knew there was some people from a subaru forum there that year... There was a lot of fun being poked in the pit area about it..
What was the forum that you are talking about?
