PostHeaderIcon California Rally Series Announces Continuation of 2020 - 2021 Championship Super Season

Earlier this year, the California Rally Series (CRS) decided to combine the 2020 and 2021 calendar years into a single Super-Season.  Due to the global pandemic, Rally Colorado was the only CRS event to successfully run in 2020.  As the pandemic hopefully subsides by mid-2021, we expect to see the return of traditional CRS events.  Additionally, Prescott Rally will return after a four year hiatus and Rally Nevada will become a CRS event for the first time.

The full 2020-2021 Super-Season Rally Championship Schedule is as follows:

2020-2021 CRS Rally Championship Super-Season

Aug 15-16, 2020: Rally Colorado (C3, C2) Rangely, CO 

May 1, 2021: High Desert Trails Rally (C3) Ridgecrest, CA 

June 5-6, 2021: Rally Colorado (C3, C2) Rangely, CO 

 July 10-11, 2021: Idaho Rally (C3, C3) Boise, ID* 

July 31, 2021: Gorman Ridge Rally (C3) Frazier Park, CA*

September 24-25, 2021: Prescott Rally (C2, C3) Chino Valley, AZ

November 6, 2021: Rally Nevada (C2) Tonopah, NV

* Idaho Rally and Gorman Ridge Rally will also be included in the CRS Side-by-Side (SxS) championship.

The CRS Rallycross Championship also combined events in 2020 and 2021 into a Super-Season.  Rallycross dates will be announced throughout the year as they become available.

As a reminder, CRS members who joined in 2020 will have their membership extended until the end of 2021.

The California Rally Series is the premier performance rally championship in the southwestern United States.  The Series incorporates events from various sanctioning bodies in order to create a meaningful regional championship for its members.  The California Rally Series represents over 40 continuous years of performance rally, making it the longest running rally series in the United States.  To learn more about the California Rally Series visit www.californiarallyseries.com

PostHeaderIcon Rally Colorado Kicks Off Combined 2020-2021 California Rally Series Championship Season

Los Angeles. After a delayed start due to a number of events being cancelled in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, the rally season is finally here! Rally Colorado kicks off the California Rally Series (CRS) Rally Championship this weekend August 15-16 with a full field of forty cars entered. The event is based in Rangely, CO and takes place on twisty and smooth dirt roads of Northwestern Colorado. With elevations over a mile high, the event is one of the most scenic on the CRS calendar. At nearly 130 stage miles, the weekend counts as a triple-points event (Coefficient 3) on Saturday, and a double-points event (C2) on Sunday towards the championship. Earlier this year, the CRS Board of Governors voted to combine 2020 and 2021 into one Super-Season, which means competitors at Rally Colorado will have a chance to get a jump start on points.

Last year’s Open Four-Wheel Drive Class season champions Flynn Baglin and co-driver Alix Hakala are back to defend their trophies, although this season sees them in a new vehicle. They will be competing in a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution with the intent of bringing the fight to the many Subarus on the entry list, as well as a few R5 spec Ford Fiestas. Fresh off a win at a tarmac event on the East Coast, Martin Donnelly and co-driver Martin Brady in their Fiesta will be the one of the favorites to win the event overall. But past years at Rally Colorado have proved that nothing is predicable. Local driver Scott Crouch took second place overall last year in his Subaru WRX, and along with co-driver Lea Croteau will be looking to improve upon that finish. Keeping the pack honest will be the husband and wife team of Chris and Lori O’Driscoll who captured the final podium spot last year in their Subaru WRX STI. Ryan Booth DNF’d at this event last year, but look for him and co-driver Nicholas Dobbs to be on the past from the start this weekend.

 

Dave and Mike Brown not only captured the Open Lite season championship in 2019, but the Colorado brothers also won this event overall last year - quite an accomplishment in a normally aspirated Subaru at these elevations! This year they face some serious competition in their class, from skateboarder Bucky Lasek who is teamed up with veteran co-driver Krista Skucas, as well as Texan Dave Carapetyan and co-driver Robert Amato. Krishna Gandhi and co-driver Jake Baxter are another Open Lite team to keep an eye on. Last year they finished second in class despite rolling their Subaru wagon on the last stage and still continuing on to the finish! Their tenacity might pay off for a class win this year.

The large-displacement two-wheel drive CRS-5 class is shaping up to be a quite a battle. The always fast Brad Morris is teamed up with co-driver Michael Hordijk in a very well prepped Mitsubishi Lancer. Meanwhile 2017 class runner up Michael Cadwell is back after a hiatus with a freshly built BMW 135i and a new co-driver in the form of Bob Maselli. Also debuting a new build is last year’s two-wheel drive top finishers, the husband and wife team of Chris and Michelle Miller in a fresh Ford Focus. Looking to give them a run for their money is BMW driver Roger Matthews, who is teamed up with journeyman co-driver Ryan Dunham for this event. Bret Hunter and co-driver Melissa Sherowski set some fast stages times in their Honda CRX at this event last year, and are also worth following in the fight for a class podium.

There seems to be a theme of new vehicles with this event – perhaps competitors have been keeping themselves occupied in the garage while the pandemic kept them off the stages. Veteran driver Tony Chavez is debuting a freshly built Honda Civic in the small-displacement two-wheel drive CRS-2 class. He is teamed up with fellow old-timer Doug Robinson, and together the team probably has the most combined years of rally experience in the event. They will face a strong challenge from 2017 class runner up Eliza Coleman who is back with her trusty Scion xD and teamed up with pro co-driver Rhianon Gelsomino.

The production-based two-wheel drive Performance Stock (P-Stock) class is shaping up to be a battle between two rookie drivers. Alex Ramos is making his debut behind the wheel, with experienced co-driver Andres Bautista sitting in the right seat of their Acura RSX

Rally Colorado takes place August 15-16, and is based in Rangely, CO. The rally features nearly 130 miles of stages in the mountains of northwest Colorado. For more information visit https://www.rallycolorado.org/.

PostHeaderIcon California Rally Series Combines 2020 and 2021 Championship Seasons, Extends Membership Through End of 2021

The global coronavirus pandemic has disrupted sporting events across the country and around the world, and rally is no exception. With two rallies cancelled this year, and another postponed, the California Rally Series (CRS) has decided to group events during the 2020 and 2021 calendar years into a combined Super-Season. Points earned at the remaining rally events on the 2020 calendar – Rally Colorado August 15-16, and the Gorman Ridge Rally October 24 – will count towards the combined season along with 2021 events. The calendar of 2021 events will be announced at the end of this year.

The CRS Rallycross Championship will similarly combine events in 2020 and 2021 into a Super Season. Points from the two events that have already occurred – one at Ridgerest and one at Prairie City – will be combined with any other CRS points events that run in 2020 and 2021. To accommodate the change, the Board of Governors has raised the maximum number of championship eligible rallycross events per venue from three to five.

As a show of appreciation towards our competitors during this difficult period, all current CRS members, as well as new members who join during 2020, will have their membership extended until the end of 2021.

PostHeaderIcon Start 2021 off right at the CRS Rally School on Feb 8th!

The California Rally Series is dedicated to helping new drivers and co-drivers get into this fantastic sport. Since 1997, the CRS has run a local rally school in Southern California where we combine classroom sessions with in-car training over the course of a weekend. Like many events during the pandemic, for 2021 we’re bringing our school online. While we’re disappointed to have to miss the in-person training, we’re excited to offer a program that will be accessible to more people for a lower cost than our usual training. We have reformatted our content to appeal to people who might be curious about how to get in to rally or rallycross, as well as experienced drivers and co-drivers who want to pick up some tips on how to improve their performance.

This year’s school will consist of six sessions held on consecutive Tuesdays evenings beginning March 2nd using Zoom as a virtual classroom. Classes will begin at 6pm Pacific Time and last for two to two and a half hours. Each session will feature two or three separate presentations, with plenty of time in between for question and answer sessions where students can interact with our experienced instructors.

Students may register at any time during the six week period, although it is recommended to start before the first session to get the most out of the learning experience. Instructors include regional and national level championship drivers and co-drivers.

Topics include:

  • How to get started in stage rally and rallycross
  • Basic and advanced rally driving techniques
  • How to prepare a car for stage rally (including what to look for when buying a prepared rally car)
  • Understanding controls and timing
  • Rally navigation from tulips to stage notes
  • Recce and writing your own notes
  • Advanced co-driving
  • Rally team management

ONLINE ENTRY AVAILABLE HERE
Cost is $30 for CRS Members and $60 for non-members (which includes CRS membership, a $30 value for the 2020-21 season)

We look forward to returning to our usual in-person (and in-car) training in 2022.
