The SCCA is ending sanctioned perfomance rallying. I just saw this on the Improved Touring board.
I ran Pro-Rally on the 80s. It was too tough for me but there are a lot of dedicated folks that love this sport.
Looks like the insurance costs and legal issues have killed it. Oh great! Gee...lets all live in rubber-rooms and play video games!
TOPEKA, Kan. (Oct. 5, 2004) – Sports Car Club of America’s Board of Directors voted Monday to discontinue the sanction of its current stage-based rally format, including the ProRally and ClubRally Championships, beginning January 1, 2005 due to increasing risk exposure.
“This was a difficult and unfortunate decision to make,” SCCA Board of Directors Chairman Gary Pitts said. “However, from an insurance standpoint, the stage rally format has gotten to the point where it puts the entire Club, its activities and entities under an undue risk.”
Unaffected by the decision are SCCA’s RallyCross and RoadRally programs.
