Of course, time-speed-distance rallyists find great satisfaction in the game, regardless of trophies and prizes; accurate calculation and precise driving are rewards in themselves. “It’s always a search for your personal best,” says one West Coast rallyist. “For most rallyists, the greatest reward is the lowest score: zero penalty points at a timing control.” Others liken the satisfaction of a good rally performance to completing the New York Times crossword puzzle—on a Saturday.
Regardless of your motivation—or your level of experience—you’re sure to have fun on the Oktoberfest 2018 Shell TSD Rally. And who knows? You may be driving home on free V-Power Nitro+, courtesy of Shell!—Satch Carlson
