DFW Map Rally POSTPONED! NOT MAY 30
May 30 - May 30, 2015
Garland, TX
ROAD RALLY! WATCH THIS SPACE FOR NEW DATE!
The DFW Map Rally will be held on Saturday, May 30, starting at 9:00am. It will start in Garland, and end in Rockett, Texas. We will ask you to locate a dozen or so points on a map, and drive to them all and to the finish, in the shortest distance.
Leaving Gateway Buick/GMC (LBJ/I-635 at Jupiter Road), you will drive a 30-mile odometer check, which ends at the Commemorative Air Force facility near Wilmer, Texas. You will have some time to examine the WWII-era aircraft that are based there, all of them still operational. Then we will use their classroom as a work area for you to examine your map(s) and determine your route. When you are ready, you will start your drive, ending at the Rockett Cafe & Club for lunch and awards.
Any street-legal car with two or more people old enough to read can enter. No special car prep is necessary. Just bring a clip board and a pencil, fill up your gas tank, and you are ready to go. There is a First Timer's class, in case you have never done any road rallying before. Cars built before 1940 get a little extra time. Low total miles traveled wins.
You can register online by going to msreg.com/DMR15msr. This is an advantage because then you will be sent the "General Instructions" for the event by email, five or six days prior to the event.
