Rallycross, anyone?




The DC region SCCA calendar and my facebook friends are trying to tell me something. Something I already knew, which is that I really need to figure out a way to try rallycrossing. If I had a car that would work I'd have been there years ago, but I just never seem to have anything lying around that would be appropriate. Right now I have my Camaro, which is a complete non-starter. There is no way I'm taking that car rallycrossing, even though I could dial in some ride height and it would be hilariously fun. I also have my tow vehicle/daily-driver Silverado. It would be fun, too, and it has plenty of ride height. Something tells me that a 3/4 ton, 4wd truck is a little bit of a tip hazard, and I need to go to work on Monday. That leaves the wife's Tahoe. I value my life and my ability to walk far too much to attempt that little stunt. Yes, she's break my legs, one by one, and then kill me.

So, does anyone have a rallycross car I can drive?! Bonus points if it's turbocharged and AWD!
