The Washington DC Region SCCA welcomes you to compete in the 2014 Northeast National Challenge! Scheduled 9/13-9/14 in Frostburg, Maryland the DC region will play host to the best rallycross drivers on the East coast. Located at the south western end of their respective division, the region hopes to tempt drivers from nearby neighboring southeast and great lakes divisions to make this event something special. SCCA top brass has dubbed the event reminicent of the old Eastern States Championship.
The DC RallyCross program has long taken pride in providing safe, fair, fast, fun, racing with maximum seat time. The program has been using a new venue since the start of the 2014 season in March just outside the college town of Frostburg. The venue comprises of approximately 40 acres of predominantly gravel surface which provides plenty of room to keep course designs safe and fun. Out-of-region drivers have complemented past course designs finding them the “perfect balance” between wide-open power-rewarding sweepers and tight/tehcnical prowess. The surface has phenominal grip but get too far off the lines and you’ll find marbles. Located on an elevated plateau the site offers scenic vistas and a typically constant breeze perfect for keeping the dust away.
Camping will be available for respectful competitors Thursday evening until Sunday. There are no amenities available at the site but the town of Frostburg only 10 minutes away offers many dining, lodging, and other options.
