maine forest rally - july 13-14

NEW ENGLAND FOREST RALLY
Rough and rugged logging roads with some of the longest stage roads on the circuit set the tone for the Maine Forest rally. Always a favorite with drivers due to the technical demands of the course, this rally is also a crowd pleaser because of its stunning scenery and wildlife. Quintessential northeastern settings such as winding creeks and one lane bridges add not only beauty to the race, but also added excitement when encountered by drivers at breakneck speeds.
Location:
Held at Sunday River Ski Resort in the town of Bethel, Maine, this rally takes advantage of the rugged terrain that opens up during the summer months when the ski season is over. Held on active logging roads, the course is one of the most rugged on the circuit. Small lakes, moose, and beautiful, wild scenery make this an epic rally and one not to be missed!
Conditions:
Warm, dry weather is consistent with summertime in Maine. Spectators normally enjoy bright blue skies, which can make watching the rally cars fly by even more fun. However, drivers know that the dry weather can lead to dusty, rocky roads where visibility is limited and hitting a stray boulder by the side of the road can be a common and disastrous occurrence. And because the logging roads are actively used by logging trucks during the week they can be rutted up and difficult to maneuver through, testing all of the drivers' skills.
anyone interested in attending?
