2019 Winter RallyCross “Ice Dice”
Winter AutoCross is a simplified version of summer AutoCross with the main difference being that it is run on a loose surface aka gravel, ice, snow! AutoSlalom is a course of those highway orange pylons are set out and cars run through the course against the clock for the fastest time. There is no wheel to wheel racing as cars are released onto the course with a safe interval between each car. Since 1954 “Ice Dice” has a history with the Calgary Sports Car Club (CSCC).
