Default 3-4-Three Challenge (Solo, Rallycross, RoadRally)

I've created a blog to chronicle my quest to run the SCCA Solo Nationals, SCCA Rallycross Nationals, and SCCA United States Road Rally Challenge this season, all in my daily-driven WRX. Please check it out here:

How do you have this kind of time?!

Have fun. I wish I had the work freedom to run a season of any National set.

I'm lucky enough to live someplace kinda in the middle of the three events. I figure it's only going to cost me 7 vacation/personal days. The relative proximity of the three venues was a major factor in deciding to go for it this year. The USRRC moves every year and, unlike the other two, there's no directive to try to keep it centrally located. Last year it was in the LA area, the year before in DC.

For a couple reasons, time being one, I'm only planning to compete in one of the three rallies at the USRRC. Running the entire event would cost a couple more vacation days.

That's cool you're going for all the nationals- good luck!

I'm Scott, the driver of the SM wagon at this past weekend's event. I go to most if not all the autoxes the CCSCC puts on. If you ever need a hand with the car or would like a ride along with me don't hesitate to ask.

I've posted a couple new entries including a review of the Evolution Performance Driving School Phase II Course. I have a Rallycross in Indy this weekend and hope to get some video on the blog next week.

Blog has been rolling along all summer. If you haven't been there recently, check it out. You'll find several event recaps, a tire review, and some general musings about what's on my mind with regards to doing all three of these Championship events.
