The Ron Dunlop Memorial Rally.
On March 19, 2022 please join us for a fun and exciting car road rally celebrating the life of Ron Dunlop, a great guy and tremendous rally organizer and competitor. This rally will explore the amazing wine country back roads around the Santa Barbara and Santa Maria areas. The Route Instructions will use a simple Monte Carlo format, meaning you get turn-by-turn directions, AND you get your target time at each Checkpoint. All Timed Checkpoints are listed in the Route Instructions and all are referenced by prominent signs on the course. The rally is a little over 200 miles long and you will have 7 hours of driving nirvana with many breaks for gas, food and rest stops.
The object of this event is to enjoy driving sweeping, beautiful, challenging back roads at legal speeds while following simple directions in order to pass a series of checkpoints at just the right time.
There is no need for advanced math, no riddles, compasses, maps or gimmicks, just glorious roads to drive with a focus on precision and accuracy. This is a team sport, driver and navigator must work together to get it right.
There are no average speeds, just run at the posted speed limits (rally is timed at least 2 mph BELOW those limits and has pauses where needed). If you reach a timed Checkpoint early, you can pull over, out of traffic lanes, and either creep, or stop and wait for your target time to pass by the Checkpoint.
We will be using the Richta GPS Competitor app for timing and scoring. This app is FREE and easy to use on any GPS-enabled smartphone or other device. Go to the App Store or Google Play Store or https://richtarally.com/ and download it. There is no need for additional timing equipment, your Official Time shows in the app!
Please register online via motorsportreg.com at msreg.com/rondunloprally2022.
Registration fee is $60 per car. There’s a $15 discount for SCCA members. If you’re not on MSR yet, it’s free to join and really easy. You only enter your name and email address. The site is owned by Hagerty and has become the gold standard for all SCCA events, as well as time trials, solo 2's, track days, etc. Be sure to opt in to receive the monthly calendar of events in your area. Definitely a lot of cool stuff there.
You may still register in person at the Start. (Sorry, but we will not be able to accept credit cards at Registration. Please use the MSR website to pay by credit card.)
