Mas may aksyon ang WRC, hahaha. Speaking of which, I will be participating on a Navigational Rally Racing on Feb. 28, 2004. A 5-hour Monte Carlo style paved road. First time ko, and I hope na matutuhan ng navigator ko ang terminologies contained on my route instructions. :hihihi:

It’s that time of year again. Time to blow the cobwebs off of your driving shows and gloves and get back in the seat for some driving time. For some of us its time to do some Auto-X, or road racing at a local track or maybe just getting down to Dromo1 for an assault on their track record. For some of us it is time to see what the winter has done to the wonderful scenery that surrounds our favorite backroads. This February 28, 2004 will be the “Training Wheels” Road Rally held by Into the Night Ralley Team. It is open to all road legal vehicles and requires no special equipment. About the only thing that you will need is a car, a co-driver and flashlight to read maps at night. It will take place on paved roads and should be about 5 hours. I know it sounds like a lot of drive time, but you won’t be sitting in traffic, you will be driving down some of the best backroads that Southern California has to offer.

TRAINING WHEELS
5 hr Monte Carlo style road rally
and FREE Navigators School

******February 28, 2004*****

ALL LEGAL VEHICLES WELCOME. NO SPECIAL EQUIPMENT REQUIRED. This event is an easy, map-based, backroad-oriented, timed event for first-time entrants and experts alike.

This is not a race. It is intended to be a test of your map-reading and instruction-following capabilities. However, you are expected to run "on time". Think if it as a giant board game, with the roads and landscape of California for a board and you and your car for a game piece.

Opportunities for spirited driving will abound. Paved roads only. 2 people per car (driver and navigator) are suggested. Event runs rain or shine. There are 3 classes: Novice, Regular, and Expert. We suggest you bring a clipboard, pen, paper, 3 different colored highlight markers, and a light inside the car, other than the dome light, to read the maps at night.

The entry fee for this event is FREE TO NOVICES and only $20 per car for Regular and Expert. Please preregister if possible. VISA and Mastercard accepted. Send your name, address, phone, and with credit card info and signature, or check/money order payable to ITN, to the address below. If you can't preregister, please call or email us so we will know you are coming. All entries must bring registration, proof of insurance, and your driver's license to the Start.

**Ungas** · February 11th, 2004 09:18 AM

Karding::: Madaling lang matutunan and I'm sure sanay ka na pakinggan yun... "1-f*cking right!" "d*amn I told you there was a jump!" "Id*ot! 2-left not 3-left!"

hahahaha, eh baka iwan ako sa ere ng tropa ko kung murahin ko sya, hahaha. Fiancee ko dapat ang navigator ko pero may conference sya that day. I think its for the better since baka mag init ang ulo ko, mag away kami at ma cancel ang wedding, nyahahaha.

habang papalapit ang Feb. 28 lalo akong nagiging excited/kabado. More of kabado yata, hehehe. Hindi pa nga ako nagpapa alam sa Saturday Class Prof. ko sa iskul na I need to take the final exam in his class a week early.

Mas masarap siguro ang motorsports jan sa Pinas. Lalo na yung Rally-X. Maganda yung spot na mga nabanggit ni wildthing. Hindi naman mahirap organize, kahit donations lang for the event just enough para pang gastos sa pag print ng maps and instructions.

Nag sale ang helmet, kaya bumili na din ako para sa Auto-X naman. Matagal ko nang pangarap ang magpa ikot ikot at liko liko sa mga orange cones eh. hahaha

ob kors, take pics ako sa event na yun.

**Ungas** · February 11th, 2004 11:22 AM

Sale ba kamo ang helmets? Anong brand? Open face ba?

**Karding** · February 11th, 2004 11:29 AM

Closed face para pwede sa Auto-X and Track Days.

KBC TK-7 M-2000 Certified yung nabili ko, $49.99 lang.

FrankDrebin · February 11th, 2004 11:33 AM

hehehe. Pinanood ko nga ito last night paguwi ko galing kina Mazda2. Bakit kulelat ngayon ang Mitsubishi?

FrankDrebin · February 11th, 2004 11:34 AM

Tsaka ang beep-beep. hehehe. Nagmumurahan siguro yung driver at navigator.

**Stuckinstock** · February 11th, 2004 11:54 AM

meron akong naririnig dati na parang ganyan dito sa manila..

they start off at UP, di ako sure pero they go to taytay ata, then to alabang, then intramuros, tapos balik UP ata.

parang road race slash amazing race... kasi parang may mga tasks sa bawat checkpoint ata..

**wildthing** · February 11th, 2004 09:20 PM

hindi ganyan ang gugu...short course paikot-ikot lang ang last year and most obstacles are man-made

maganda sa wrc, hindi man-made ang most obstacles and the speed....akala mo pantay ang daan pag dinadaanan....

sayang wala akong cable...di ko mapapanuod.

2 years nang kulelat ang Mitsubishi then last year nag hiatus sila from WRC to retool and to rethink their strategy. Hirap yung bagong Lancer Evo sa Peugeot, Ford and Citroen. They came back this year pero mukhang its gonna be another long year for the Evo.

**Karding** · February 12th, 2004 01:18 AM

wildthing, yung 'gagu' na paikot ikot eh may mga orange cones? Auto-X din yata tawag yun, pero di ko lang sigurado kung ano yung nabanggit mong 'gagu'

MAX,

Pwede gumamit ng GPS pero you cant really rely on GPS unless you're lost in the mountain. Kse ang objective ng Navigational Rally is to be able to follow a set of instructions (Rally Terminologies) and may mga marker kung saan ka liliko and saan ka mag pump ng gas. You may see on your GPS na may long stretch, pero may alley pala and you have to make the turn somewhere. Nakow, maliligaw ka na. I've never been there, kaya hindi ko kabisado yung mountain and kinakabahan ako, hahaha.

**Stuckinstock** · February 12th, 2004 03:06 PM

pano po ba dine-describe ng nav sa driver ang isang turn?

"right.. <numbers>.." lang ang naiintindihan ko dun sa sinasabi nila eh...

**Karding** · February 13th, 2004 02:30 AM

Stuckinstock, malalaman ko sa Feb. 28th

bago kami magsimula sa Feb 28, may driver orientation/schooling/lecture for an hour to learn the terminologies/acronym ng Navigation.

Baka tagalugin na lang ng Navigator ko, mas madali pa kesa sa ka ek-ekan ng Rally Terminologies, hahaha
