About this event
Shift 'n Shinola Road Rally
The Arctic Alaska Region of the Sports Car Club of America will be sanctioning the third event of the 2013 Alaska Road Rally Championship on Saturday, August 3rd. Head over to www.alaskascca.motorsportreg.com today or our Road Rally in Alaska Facebook page, and you'll find information on our upcoming events.
We are so very fortunate that three Rallymasters stepped up to take on the responsibility of putting together challenging, clean (no busts) and creative Road Rallies for the upcoming Alaska Road Rally Championship of summer rally events! Rallymasters want to know that rallyists are planning to attend and looking forward to competing on their rallies. We look forward to having you rally with us and encourage you to register today!
Gail Engblom will be the Rallymaster for the Shift 'n Shinola Road Rally. A seasoned Rallymaster who has been running events since the mid-90's, she is taking us to south Anchorage and the Hillside this year versus downtown Anchorage. We'll be starting from the Jewel Lake McDonald's (at Dimond Boulevard) with Registration at 6PM; you'll want to arrive as early as possible to take in the Pre-Show Car Show before Registration! And the show, which this is pre-to is the Midnight Sun Street Rod Associations Show 'n Shine, which is Sunday, August 4th, on the Delaney Park Strip!
Given the generous volunteer hours needed to go into our events — from the pre-check workers time, Rallymaster re-check calcs/printing, and rally expenses—we need your registrations as soon as you know you'll be running! Please do not wait until the last minute — show your interest to our Rallymasters! Consider taking time to register for the full season today or as many as you are sure you'll be able to take in right now and you'll be set for the season.
Again, the starting location for the Shift 'n Shinola Road Rally will be at the Jewel Lake McDonald's. You do need to arrive at 6:00P as you will need to take care of final registration matters, your vehicle tech inspection and more! Rumor has it that we'll be ending for ice cream post rally, so make sure you eat dinner prior to the start!
Don't have a dedicated rally partner? No worries—we are encouraging folks to arrive and form teams at the starting location! Register up so folks know you're looking for a rally partner.
Event requirements
REGISTRATION and ENTRY FEES
We encourage all of you planning to enter this event to register here at http://www.alaskascca.motorsportreg.com. One of your team will need to register the vehicle and their position on the team (Driver or Navigator) and the other will need to register their position on the team and personal information only. The entry fee for the summer Alaska Road Rally Championship is $20 per team member, with members of our sanctioning body, the Sports Car Club of America, receiving a $5.00 discount. Please bring exact cash or check for payment at the event.
Due to the nature of the motorsport known as Road Rally, Rallymasters must have ample copies of the Route Instructions and Checkpoint Slips prepared in advance of the event; there are no copiers along the highway! This is why we need your registration here and we will keep online registration open until 11:59P on Friday, August 2nd.
