TSD Rally, What are the rules?? Options

[pin31]

There is a PCA concourse and rally (Zone 1 NE) scheduled for May in my backyard (Newport, RI).

I've never done either (concourse or rally), how are they run, what are the rules??

Sounds like it could be fun........

Tips, suggestions ??

They can be fun if you don't take yourself too seriously. I've actually trophied in some national PCA TSD rallies, but haven't done many in the last 15 years or so.

They will give you some general rules at first (the rallies rules of the road), that you need to read carefully and remember. You get your route instructions just before you leave.

If you have never done one, get a friend that can read, remember, watch for signs, and doesn't get carsick. Be careful about rallying with your wife or significant other unless you don't take it seriously, there can be some major fights and screaming between driver and navigator if things go wrong!

It's a nice way to spend some winter time and see some interesting roads.
