Atlantic Rally Cup History
The Eastern States Rally Championship started in 2004 and the Sandblast Rally had the honor of being the
first event of the first Rally Championship organized by NASA Rally Sport. The series then traveled to Tennessee
and New York for three more Rally events. In 2005 the International Rally in Northern New York was added to the
Rally Championship lineup. Then in 2006 Rally West Virginia was added to the Rally Championship list of events. The
roads in West Virginia proved to be technical, popular and further increased the varied types of terrain that
competitors fight to conquer each season.
In 2008, the twin Championships of the Atlantic Rally Cup and Atlantic RallyMoto™ Cup replaced the Eastern
States Rally Championship. The now familiar events – Sandblast Rally, Rally Tennessee, Rally West Virginia, and
Black River Stages – comprised the Championship.
4/34
In 2009 a tarmac Championship was added in Florida. In 2010 a winter event in Canada, Rallye de Charlevoix
was added. The Atlantic Rally Cup for car competition began scoring on two classes - All Wheel Drive (AWD) and
Two Wheel Drive (2WD). While Motorcycle classes for the Atlantic RallyMoto™ Cup remained the same. However a
Quad class was added as a rallying option in certain rallies.
2013 brought big changes to the Atlantic Rally Cup & the Atlantic RallyMoto™ Cup with the addition of the
Empire State Performance Rally in New York. It was also the first year that the series was considered part of the
National Qualifying Series. The events & results started counting toward qualification to race in the NASA National
Rally Championship. The decision was also made that year to drop the Rallye de Charlevoix, as the total number of
rallies was becoming unreasonable for a grassroots effort.
Lastly, in 2014, the Magnum Opus Rally in Newberry, Michigan was added to the Atlantic Rally Cup and
Atlantic RallyMoto™ Cup.
1.3
NASA Rally Sport Atlantic Rally Cup & RallyMoto™ Cup Points Table
This is the first event of the season, an updated Atlantic Rally Cup and Atlantic RallyMoto™ Cup points table
is not available. An updated points table will be available later in the season.

Shakedown
6.1
Participation
Competitors who have completed registration, scrutineering, and the Novice Competitor Orientation (if
required) and who have prepaid for shakedown access may participate in the shakedown stage. Helmets, suits and all
other safety gear are required. Some teams may be asked to carry a passenger for a publicity run of the shakedown
stage.
6.2
Time & Location
Friday, March 4, 2015: 3:30pm – 6:00pm @ The Curve Tavern
14/34
8096 Hartsville Ruby Rd, Patrick, SC. 29584
843.634.7614
6.3
Participants
Using this road will prevent us from putting ruts in stages that will be used the following day. After completing
the stage, it is roughly 5.1 miles to drive back around to the start. Overall transit distance is about 22 miles from
registration. Service vehicles are not allowed at the start or finish of the shakedown stage. When your team is
finished in the shakedown stage, the rally vehicle must report immediately to the Parc Exposé on Chesterfield's Main
Street in front of the 1884 Chesterfield County Courthouse.
Which is a large red brick building on the north side of the street. Teams will be checked in and out of the Parc
Exposé. Failure to attend will result in a one minute penalty. Restaurants on Main Street will be open. Teams are
encouraged to dine locally and leave their vehicles in Parc Exposé while dining. Teams must arrive by 6:15pm and
can leave the Parc Exposé after 7:30pm. No service crew members or spectators may participate in the shakedown
stage by riding in a vehicle.
Please note that the shakedown stage is used for publicity and rides in rally cars are sometimes arranged for
event sponsors and town officials. Some teams will be approached and asked to provide rides for a mayor, police
chief, or an event sponsor. Please understand that this sort of activity is paramount for continued close relations with
the town and forest that allows use of their roads. These riders may need to borrow helmets. The ride with a sponsor
should be at 60-70 percent of testing speeds, and viewed as a ride, not an opportunity to test.
6.4
Cost
The cost of Shakedown is $25 and is included in the Deluxe entry package. Those registering for a Basic entry
package will not be able to participate in Shakedown.
6.5
Spectators at the Shakedown
One spectator area will be available at the Shakedown stage. All persons who go to this spectator area must
sign a waiver. Spectators will be allowed within the designated and taped area only. Any team members or crew
traveling outside the designated & taped area will incur a one minute penalty.

Due to concerns about the amount of cars on the side of route 145 near the start of the shakedown stage we
are moving the service location for shakedown. The Curve bar has agreed to let us use the grass lot to the right side
of the building lot for service during shakedown. They have room for trailer parking if you intend to trailer your
race vehicle. Do not park or perform service activities on route 145.

Import of Vehicles & Spare Parts / Importing into America
The following is an excerpt from a U.S. government publication entitled “Importing A Car”: Nonresidents
may import an automobile or motorcycle and its usual equipment free of duty for a temporary stay to take part in
races or other specific purposes. However, prior written approval from the EPA is required and such approval is
granted only to those racing vehicles that EPA deems not capable of safe or practical use on streets and highways.
If the contests are for other than money purposes, the vehicle may be admitted for 90 days without formal
entry or bond if the Customs officer is satisfied as to the importer’s identify and good faith. The vehicle is subject
to forfeiture if it is not exported or if a bond is not given w/in 90 days of its importation. Prior written approval
must be obtained from DOT. A vehicle may be temporarily imported for testing, demonstration, or racing
purposes. With rally cars being capable of “safe and practical use streets and highways” this complicates matters,
and we recommend that you research the matter carefully. Another encouraging part of the document states,
“These vehicles may be operated on public roads or highways provided the operations are an integral part of the
test." Sandblast Rally, giving no prize money, does fulfill the “contest for other than money purposes” clause. The
Supplemental Regulations explicitly state that no prize money will be awarded. The full document is available on
the official government importation web site:
http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/vacation/kbyg/prohibited_restricted.xml
Forms to import a car, you must deal with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, available
here:
http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/rules/import/Racing/
You may submit the forms yourself, or have a US customs broker (at a port where the car will land) do it for
you. You do not need to have a NHTSA “Registered Broker” process this paperwork, as those businesses deal
with cars that are imported for sale.
