Rally Tennessee Returns!
Celebrating it's 6th year, the acclaimed Rally Tennessee returns to Perry County as a two-day event May 29-30, 2010, showcasing more rally cars and motorcycles than ever before.
NASA Rally Sport's annual Rally Tennessee will kick off summer during Memorial Day weekend just an hour west of Nashville. This Perry County, Tennessee based event will have cars and motorcycles racing over a closed course of super twisty roads on Saturday and Sunday.
The rally is unique in its terrain which takes advantage of the winding along Tennessee's mountain ridges. Although rally racing roads come in many flavors, the predominant format in North America is gravel roads. Rally Tennessee is a ”tarmac“ rally and provides a special challenge to the racers. Competitors must use specialized tires and re-tune their suspension dramatically to hold the course. Even their driving styles must change completely to accommodate the very different grip condition of Perry County's roads.
This year's format will include a Shakedown Stage and an additional Parc Expose offering ample opportunities to meet the competitors and sponsors. International competitors from as far away as Canada, Poland, Ireland, England, and competitors from as close as New York, Florida, and North Carolina and Tennessee, will return to Perry County for this spectacular event. Rally Tennessee attracts novice and veteran competitors alike while spectators enjoy the variety of viewing locations throughout Perry County.
Rally Tennessee offers opportunities to those interested in motorsports and racing. Volunteers can get involved at the starts and finishes of the racing stages, assisting in the pit/service areas, facilitate communications, and help with registration. Get involved! Sign up here.
