Hey everyone! I'm co-organizing an event on Sept 27 called Royal Rally. maybe you've seen my Acura TL or my friend's Hummer with all the decals on them driving around, maybe you haven't.
What is the event?
Royal Rally Mountain Run is a one-day scavenger hunt style event. The event is split into two legs. At the start of the event, each team will receive a route card with a few destinations. Each destination on the card will have a question that you can only answer by visiting the checkpoint location. Teams must take a photo of themselves at the checkpoint to prove they actually went there. A correct answer will result in a 'time bonus' whereas an incorrect answer will result in a 'time penalty.'
All teams will arrive at the Banff Springs for brunch and will hand in their route cards.
After brunch, teams will receive a new route card and repeat the process, ending at a trendy restauraunt in SE Calgary where we'll have an awards presentation for the top three teams.
Start and finish line details as well as route info will only be given to participants and will not be posted publicly.
How much does it cost?
The event costs $200 per car (one driver and one car), plus $50 per passenger to cover brunch and additional rally swag.
What does the entry fee pay for?
The entry fee pays for brunch, rally decals, rally swag and covers costs for the trophies and route cards.
Is the event a race?
No. It's not a race. Even a Prius could win Royal Rally by visiting all the checkpoints and achieving all the time bonuses. Remember the story of the tortoise and the hare? It's not all about speed.
What cars are eligible?
All cars can join Royal Rally. Though we'd like to keep it to more sporty cars. Domestic, Import and Exotics are all welcome!
We currently have a number of M3s registered, an S15 Silvia, a 335i, C45 AMG, Huracan, 458 Italia and more.
Please check out RoyalRally.org for more info and to sign up. Or email me at [email protected].
We hope to see a few Beyonders out at the event this September.
