The Rally Winder is going to be the first rally of the 2022 MBCA Peachtree Time-Speed-Distance (TSD) Rally Championship Series! This rally will take place on Sunday, April 10th, 2022.
The rally is going to be “tour” – style Time-Speed-Distance (TSD) competition. It will be relatively straight-forward - all significant turns are clearly identified with mileages provided on the Route Instructions. The goal of the rally is to maintain “on time” driving on the timed portions of the rally, according to given instructions.

This rally is the first of the four rallies, which will constitute the 2022 MBCA Peachtree TSD Championship Series. MBCA members will earn championship points based on their overall finish in this event.

We will meet at the parking lot of the Home Depot in Winder, GA (649 Carl-Bethlehem Rd, Winder, GA 30680) at 11:30 AM. The Home Depot is located near the intersection of Hwy 316 and Hwy 81.
