CAR RALLY

Saturday, June 6th, 2009

The Discover Ontario is the fifth round of the Ontario Road Rally Cup.   This is a beginner-friendly event that is a great introduction to the sport of rallying.  This rally is held on interesting roads at brisk speeds.   Any licensed car can compete and there are no car-breaker roads.  All you need is a clipboard and pens, and a settable clock.  Straightforward, easy-to-follow route book instructions are specifically designed to introduce newcomers to the fun of navigational rallying.

Approximately 200 km of entertaining back roads.

There are three classes of competition: Beginner, Intermediate and Expert.
