STL RoadRally: August Updates, Notes, & Reminders

Although it’s been a quiet summer for the St. Louis Region when it comes to hosting road rallies, there’s been a lot of road-rally effort happening in the background. On Sept. 12, we have our first Regional road rally since May 30, and on Oct. 9–11, we host the 31st United States Road Rally Challenge (USRRC), with headquarters in Edwardsville, Ill.

This is the fifth time the St. Louis Region has volunteered to host the USRRC, an important part of the SCCA’s annual National Road Rally Championship since 1995. This year, as in 2018, the last time we hosted the USRRC, we have combined the three National USRRC rallies with a pair of daylong Regional road rallies that comprise (again) our USRRC Regional Gateway Cup Challenge. (Count ’em–that’s five rallies in all. Whew!)

Finally, also on our fall calendar, our now (mostly) annual November GTA (gimmick) road rally. This year it’s on the 22nd, and it’s named “Second Opportunity,” helmed again by the St. Louis Region’s Stan Lawson.
