Out in Byron, IL, right by the dragstrip. Rally Up!
First section is all highly technical with some steep hills (the Raptor Club just launches off these things) followed by faster sweeping turns with some spaced out U's. Can't wait to finish the car :)

Wow, that looks fantastic! Supposedly, the guy who started the FIRM is working on a new rally school/motorsports facility farther south that will be near me.

I may have to take my FR-S here in the spring...

Here's one way to guarantee that you'll never have anything serviced under warranty

Are these run like an autocross, so there's only 1 car on track at a time?
Otherwise that looks extremely dangerous if two cars were coming at each other in opposing directions with that little distance between different sections.

They're run in two groups, each car in each group about a minute to a minute and ten seconds apart. It's worked great the past couple times :)

Oh man, this will be fun. Definitely gonna make it out to at least one event next year.
I wonder how well stock FR-S tires will fare in autocross... haha

At the old course in Rockford, the record holder was a lowered 2013 Civic.
I'll be running Radial T/As, so you will not be alone in poor tire choice XD

Admittedly, having never done rallycross before and the FR-S being my only car, I am worried about breaking shit.

So is motocross season over, so they plowed down the jumps? Or are they just driving around them? It'd be a shame if Byron quit using the Hilltop track.

We drive on some of them and around others. Are you familiar with the place? Looks like there's still another big track to the south.

I've been there a couple times, high school friends raced the Nuke Series out there for a number of years.
Just looked at a satellite map, forgot that the big track isn't even in the picture you showed. The place is pretty huge, I need to get back there.
