    ESCAPE TO WISCONSIN
    Road Rally

    Saturday, June 6, 2009
    Registration: Noon til 12:45
    First Car Out: 1:00 PM

    The Stella del Nord Chapter of the Alfa Romeo Owners Club invites you to join us for a delightful afternoon drive on the scenic roads of Western Wisconsin. The rally will cover about 100 miles of paved roads in St Croix and Pierce Counties. Easy to follow numbered instructions will define the route, and most will be accompanied by the official mileage. Car Zero Times will be used to make staying on schedule easy. Average speeds will be used for short distances before each of the checkpoints, often less than one mile. Scoring will be based on the accuracy of your arrival time at the checkpoints.

    Suitable for first time ralliests.

    Entry Fee: $20.00 ( $15 for Alfa or SAAB Club members )
    Please make checks payable to: A.R.O.C. Mail Entry Forms to:
    Dave Fuss 9384 Lanewood Lane N Maple Grove MN 55369

    Rallymaster: Dave Fuss 763-494-4925
    Please call to reserve a car number or if you have questions.



    The rally will start at the Wisconsin Travel Info Center in Hudson, Wisconsin. The Info Center is located on the South side of I-94 at Exit 2, about 2 blocks West of Carmichael Road. Enter from Crest View, the south frontage road.

    Hope to see some Subies out there.

    Sounds fun, but can someone please help define "Average Speeds," Is this a casual country road tour or a fun medium sprint on tarmac country roads rally? If its anything close to resembling a tarmac rally I might consider going. Thnx :biggrin:

    Is there day of reg? I don't think I can guarantee the day off work.

    I'd really like to attend, seeing as the last time I was over there the Talon loved those roads.

    You can just show up and register the day of the event. You may want to shoot an email to Dave Fuss just to make sure that he prints enough sets of route instgructions.
