A BEGINNERS GUIDE TO RALLYRally is arguably the most exciting and challenging form

of motorsport. Competitive stages are held on winding forest roads and events are hosted in all four seasons of the year, no matter what the weather brings. Success at rally is a mat-ter of preparing for any and all obstacles and working as a team to overcome the challenges. Each of the Canadian Rally Championship events scores competitors over more than 150 Kilometres of com-petitive distance on closed roads. In a pure race against the clock, the teams that can find the balance of speed and reliability are rewarded.

What is Performance Rally?Rallies are a combined

challenge of driving as fast as possible on closed road sections, called stages, and staying on perfect time on open road sections, called transits.

Stage roads are typically forestry roads that the organiz-ers have been given permission to control traffic on. They are generally chosen for their technical and challenging nature and are often in more remote areas.

Transit sections are simply the roads that take the teams from one stage to another, or to and from the service park. Teams are expected to follow all of the rules of the road and face strict penalties for arriving early at the next section or for not obeying the laws or the event regulations.

The TeamsAbout 25 teams are expected to compete in the Rocky

Mountain Rally. Each team has a driver and co-driver who are both in the car during competition. The driver’s job is to get the car through the competitive sections as quickly as possible while judging the ever changing road conditions. The co-driver’s job is to read out pace notes the team has prepared, letting the driver know what corners and dangers are coming up. The co-driver is also responsible for keeping the car on route and on time through the entire event.

The Service ParkBeyond the crew in the

car, most teams will have support crew waiting for them at the service park. At regular intervals, the cars will come to the central service park at the Eddie Mountain Arena. Here, the support crew will do their best to fix all the damage done out on the stages, all in a limited time. The top teams are able to change a transmission in less than 20 minutes from rolling in to driving out!

The CarsAll of the cars in the rally

started life on the showroom floor. To become a rally car they have been modified, lightened and strengthened. The biggest and most obvious change is the addition of a full roll cage, race seats and race harnesses. In addition, most cars will have specialty

suspension, metal skid plates and will use rally specific tires.

The ClassesTeams competing in the championship have a number

of classes they can compete in. Production 2wd and 4wd allow for safety modifications but the engine and driveline must remain stock. Open 2wd and Open 4wd classes allow

virtually unlimited modifica-tions, making them the faster and more popular classes.

SafetyEvery team has to meet

internationally recognized safety standards for every-thing from helmets and race suits to the construction of their roll cage. Before every event each car, and all the safety equipment, will be checked. Competitors carry first-aid kits and fire extin-

guishers on board and are required to hold a valid first-aid certificate.

The VolunteersFrom the top level down, rally events in Canada are vol-

unteer run, not-for-profit events. The typical event will have more volunteers than competitors, with the duties ranging from controlling road access, to working arrival controls on the route, to manning the radio network.

The Fame and GloryA stroll around the service park will clearly show you that

the teams pour their heart and souls into each event and give it their all on every stage. The teams are competing for bragging rights and trophies, there no prize money coming from the event. Some teams have modest sponsorship deals and Subaru Canada provides some support to teams, but the driving force for all of the teams is the love of the sport.

The Family Rally has a history of being a family sport, in many ways.

Not only have we regularly seen husband/wife and parent/child teams, but the entire rally community takes on the feel-ing of a big family. While you might expect fierce competi-

tion between teams at every chance, we regularly see competitors helping each other survive the challenges of the event, even at the top end of the sport.

Getting involvedThere really is nothing like

Rallysport. The first step into the sport is often volunteer-ing at performance events, entering navigational rally and rally-cross events. Once you have a basic under-standing of the sport it is rec-ommended to buy, or build, a 2wd car to ease yourself into competition and learn the fundamentals.

More information about getting involved can be found at: CARSRally.ca, RallyWest.com, RallyBC.com and the Cal-gary Sports Car Club forums at CSCC.AB.CA

‘Real Cars, Real Roads, Real Fast’ is a well worn descrip-tion of rally. What’s missing from that slogan is ‘real danger.’ While event organisers and volunteers make every effort to keep you safe at the event, sometimes thing happen that can’t be predicted. Spectator areas are identified with banner tape and signs that make it clear where you should and shouldn’t be. The organisers have made every effort to make the area as safe as possible for you, but it is important you pay attention to what’s happening around you and be ready for anything.

Pay Attention To The Banner Tape!

Make sure you keep the green banner tape between you and the stage road. This will keep you in the safest place possible. When the stage is active, remain standing and know where you’re going to run if something unexpect-ed happens!

Some areas are riskier to be in, but you might see ac-credited media or event officials there. These people are familiar with the sport, are officially registered with the event, and are only in these areas if they need to be. Often these areas look safe, but the organsiers have identified a con-cern and decided to not let people watch the event from there for good reasons.

Absollutely no one is allowed behind red tape areas during the rally. These areas have the high probability of danger and are likely where the cars will go if they have a problem. (Notice the red tape across the front of the car in the picture at the top of the page.)

Listen To Our Volunteers!

Look for the people with the green or orange vests around you. These are the people who are there to make sure you stay safe as possible and we appreciate your listen-ing to their advice and do as they ask. If you see someone who might be a hazard to themselves or others, let one of our volunteers know about it so they can address the situa-tion quickly.

Watch For The Course Cars

Before the competitors are set loose on the stage, three ‘course cars’ drive through the stage to makes sure every-thing is safe and secure.

The cars are labeled 000, 00 and 0 and travel the stage in that order. Sometimes, on the second use of a stage, 000 may not run the entire road. These safety crews have the final say when it comes to safety and the stage will not run if they don’t think everyone is as safe as possible. Once Car 0 has passed, get ready for the excitement as the next car will be a rally car at speed.!

At the other end of the pack you’ll see 98 and 99, a pair of SUVs or Trucks that ‘sweep’ behind the rally and possibly a medic crew. Only after the closing cars have passed will the volunteers be able to let you leave the spectator area.

Mind The Gap

The first five cars start the stage two minutes apart. After that, the cars start every minute. Depending where you are in the stage the gap between cars may have increased or decreased significantly. Never assume there is going to be time between cars. Competitors can also have problems and be delayed significantly. If you haven’t seen the course closing cars then you have to assume there will be more rally cars coming!

Constant Contact

Because we’re rallying out in the woods and phone coverage is usually spotty at best, the events use a radio network that has radio operators placed at important points all along the route. The radio network’s primary role is to track the competitors and help the organizers quickly react to a missing car. However, the radio operators also relay information as needed to Spectator ares and other workers if there are delays during the event.

Be Ready For Anything

The hazards at a rally are a bit unpredictable, so stay on your feet, know your surroundings and know how to get out of harms way! It may not be just the cars you have to worry about, but something they might kick up from the road sur-face or some gravel spray as the push through the corners.

6 Calgary Sports Car Club • CSCC.ab.ca

Please note that for your safety, watching the rally out on the stage roads is only allowed at designated areas. Spectator areas will be clearly marked with signs and tape. Follow the green ‘spectator’ signs to help you get to the right spots!

When spectating at a rally, it is important you come prepared to spend several hours in the forest.

Ceremonial Start All of the rally cars will be on display in down-town Invermere on 7th Ave between 12th and 13th street starting at 9:10 AM. Get a good look at the cars and meet the teams as they get ready to head out to the first stage.

The first car crosses the starting line at 10:30 AM!

Service ParkThroughout the event the cars will come back to the Eddie Mountain Arena for repairs and fueling. From drivers and co-drivers doing their own work to full factory teams, there will be a lot of action to watch in the service park all weekend.

Teams are expected to arrive Saturday at 2:00 PM and again at 7:30 PM for an overnight service. The action continues on Sunday as the cars prep first thing in the morning before leav-ing for the stages at 8:30. They return for a single service stop at 11:00 AM

Saturday Stages Saturday’s stages are a combination of roads in and around Dogsleg Lake. To get to the area Follow Hwy 93/95 for approximately 16 Km North from Invermere to Radium. Turn Left onto Forsters Landing Road at the 4-Way stop. Follow this road an take Horsethief Creek Road for 6 Km, until you reach the intersection with Westside road. Continue straight ahead to get to the spectator area.

Remember, it is important you come prepared to spend several hours in the forest.

Spectator Area Is located approximately 2.5 Km from the Forster Creek Forest Service Road stage start. This road is used for 6 of the 7 stages today. Access is by car only and spectators will not be allowed past this point.

Cars are scheduled to pass this location 6 times between 11:15 AM and 6:45 PM.

From the junction of Horsethief Creek Road and Westside Road, continue west on Horsethief Creek Road for another 4 Km and turn right onto Forster Creek FSR. Watch for the green spectator signs to the spectator area and fol-low the event volunteers’ instructions.

Access to this location will be stopped at 10:00AM and reopened at about 7:00 PM. There is a back road access to the spectator area approximately 750m further up Horsethief Creek Road. Spectators are encouraged to use this access at all times.

Delays Happen!Rally events run on a strict schedule but from time to time things happen that will cause a delay. Problems can range in complexity and seriousness, but most commonly involve getting a competitor back on the road or making sure a disabled car is parked in a safe location until it can be recovered by the team.

If there is a delay that keeps you in a spectator area longer than you anticipate, please be patient and follow the instructions of the nearest event vol-unteer. While it might seem like nothing is going on around you, we can only let you move once we know the road is safe for you to travel on.

SATURDAY’S ACTION

Spectator Location Color Codes

To aid spectators with their decision on which location they would like watch the rally from, we have decided to use the color coding as used at most ski hills across Canada.

Green - EASY Access to the spectator location will involve at most a short walk and you will have the ability to arrive or leave at any time.

Blue - MEDIUM Difficulty Access to the location may involve a intermediate walk to the spectator area or driving on the stage road. These areas also have restricted accessibility so you should be prepared to stay at the spectator until course closing, Car “99”, has passed your location and the event volunteers say you can leave.

Black - HIGH Difficulty Access by a steep/intermediate walk/hike to the Spectator area. You will also be in the stage until the course closing car, Car “99”, has traversed the stage to ensure all competing vehicles have exited safely.

Competition ScheduleRally is not only about getting through the stages as fast as you can, it is also about arriving at each checkpoint on time.

Arriving early at any checkpoint earns the team a minute penalty for every minute early. Being late only gets the team a ten second penalty for every minute. Arriving on time is important, but it’s far better to be late than early.

Events do sometimes have delays, making the cars arrive later than scheduled. Problems can range in complexity and seri-ousness, but most commonly involve getting a competitor back on the road or making sure a disabled car is parked in a safe location until it can be recovered by the team.

The schedule below shows when you what time the first cars are expected to arrive at various points during the event.

SERVICE PARKWARNINGMOTORSPORTS CAN BE

DANGEROUSWhen visiting the service park be completely aware of your surroundings. Cars, and people, will be constantly in motion and focused on the tasks at hand. It is your responsibility to make sure you are safe!

When the current-generation Subaru WRX and Subaru WRX STI

debuted last year, enthusiasts recognized that the best had gotten

better. The two were already considered purebred performance

cars around the world — a series of refinements made them even

more prodigious.

The WRX and WRX STI feature a host of advanced technologies

that deliver stratospheric levels of stability and control. These

advances include more robust transmissions in the WRX (all the

better to manage power delivery), Active Torque Vectoring in both

cars (for tremendous response in the corners) and a track-tuned

suspension system (that slashes body roll to a bare minimum).

When you combine these recent additions with an ultra-light and

super-strong chassis, turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engines

and symmetrical full-time AWD, you have purebred performance

cars that set a blistering pace. Wherever the road and whatever

the destination, the 2017 Subaru WRX and WRX STI make the

drive a connected, controlled and decidedly blood-pumping

experience.
