I had no idea, and maybe its been covered on the forums, but Euro-style rallycross is coming to NJMP this fall.

1.3mi course, 70% tarmac 30% sand + 1 jump.

This looks like it'll be similar to the Xgames setup except that 5 cars start and race at once. Sounds super exciting. I'm gonna go check it out.

Looks like a great deal of fun. I'll be there and helping out with the SCCA national rally-x booth.

I think it will be interesting to see at least. I love to see anything that will bring in spectators to NJMP.

Mortified.

I'm only an hour away from NJMP and I can't go. :(

Im somewhat interested. As a big rally fan, i wish they would stick to whats good honestly, this, with the x-crowd will basically bury rally, right when I was hoping the x-games would give it a boost

Problem is, very few people ever showed up for it. Real shame, it's a freakin' BLAST.

Same venue but different event. If you want to see NJMP, here's your chance: come to NJMP on ~Sept 24-25~ and see a great VRG vintage car race and airshow the same weekend.

~Last year's VRG event~ at NJMP (the first video on this link is decent).
