I received this and thought that maybe some of the Charlotte people on
the list might want to do this.  Not necessarily for LBC's or even
vintage of any sort, but after all, what kind of cars are the "real"
rally cars?

Rotary Road, January 30, 2010 - You're invited to participate


Good Afternoon All b


Press Release - January 7, 2010 - MOORESVILLE, NC - Road Rally comes
to Race City USA on January 30th, 2010.B  The Rotary Club of Top of the
Lake-Mooresville is hosting the areabs first Road Rally, an event
where speed does not guarantee the winner.



Some call it a treasure hunt on wheels, others refer to it as a
challenge of your problem-solving, navigational, and observation
skills while cruising a forty mile drive; we just consider it a great
way to spend an afternoon with friends, family and co-workers for an
afternoon of fun.



In a Road Rally, each team is given a set of route directions to
follow, and the speeds at which they should travel the route, as well
as a list of clues to solve along the way.B  Teams consist of one
driver and at least one navigator.B  The route will generally consist
of rural and quieter back roads. At the very least, you'll have a nice
drive in the country!

The goal of a Road Rally is to travel the correct route at the correct
speeds, arrive at ``checkpoints'' precisely on time, and to solve as
many clues as possible along the way. You are scored on how closely to
the correct time you arrive and how many clues your team answers
correctly.B  A Road Rally is not a race, and does not require you to
drive in a reckless or illegal fashion. Arriving too early at a
checkpoint hurts your score, as does arriving too late.

Everyone is invited to participate in this charity event on Saturday,
January 30th, 2010.B  The proceeds from the Road Rally will help Rotary
International eradicate polio and to benefit other local charities.
The Road Rally sponsored by The Rotary Club of Top of the
Lake-Mooresville will begin at 2 p.m.B  The starting point is the
parking lot ofB The Pit Indoor Kart Racing on Highway 150 in
Mooresville.B  The entrance fee is $40 per car b you may have as many
participants in the car as you have seatbelts, so bring the whole
family!B  Each car must have a driver, a navigator and proof of
insurance. "What a perfect day for doing something that's fun,
different and community-oriented at the same time," says David
Contorno, rally co-organizer.
