2010 Holiday Lights Tour

The 2010 Christmas Lights Tour is an annual event hosted by members of RallyMaster Pro and other rally clubs.  It was a low-key informal rally tour open to anyone, no clubs, no sanction fees and no trophies.

Registration was at the starting point at 6:00 pm on Saturday, December 18, 2010 at the Shoreview Community Center in Shoreview, MN.  There was also a small $2.00 fee to cover printing costs of maps and instructions. Registrants received a list of instructions, a map and questions to be answered at each Christmas light display.

The tour began at 6:30 pm and and traversed 24.3 miles through several residential neighborhoods in northern Ramsey County, MN.  In several instances many participants had to get out of their cars to answer questions such as the number of snowmen, elves, Santas stars, trees and penguins on display in front of residences.  In some situations flashlights came in handy to find answers.  Some displays were buried by a recent snowstorm that dumped over 18 inches of snow making it difficult to see over snow banks.

The tour end about 9:00 pm at Acapulco restaurant in Blain, MN where everyone gathered for dinner and to tally points for the correct number of answers provided by Mark Larson, the event master. 

2010 SCCA Runoffs at Road America

2010 SCCA Runoffs at Road America are now in the books.  Three days of racing  started Friday, September 24th and finished on Sunday.  Weather was cool partly-mostly cloudy and very windy on Friday and Saturday.  The cool dense Wisconsin air helped engines to perform well, while the wind presented some challenges for a few drivers.  Lots of good racing and great online coverage by SpeedCastTV.   See Race Results
