As a
Jaguar owner and member of JCNA, it is pretty certain that you enjoy cars and driving. Add team competition, abundant foodand a great mix of people and you have a recipe for a weekend of fun at the upcoming Pumpkin Run RallyApril 26 28 in Millsboro, DE.One of the culinary highlights is the seafood boil on Saturday night which includes shrimp, oysters and clams.This rally conforms to JCNA sanction rules, qualifying scores for overall JCNA competition awards.

Organizing
and conducting a rally is a big undertaking for individual clubs. The North East Rally Club has developed a well-oiled team through their nineteen years of experience and their rallies are open to new participants. Rallies take place each spring and fall with locations in Delaware, New York and Pennsylvania. Members of the Delaware Valley Jaguar Club, Nations Capital and Capital Region Jaguar Club of New York represent the marque well at every rally. Join with us and have some fun this spring or fall!

A
rally is not a race! The format of this event is a Time-Speed-Distance Rally where the objective is to follow directions precisely such that you pass checkpoints throughout the route at predetermined times. Rally instructions never call for exceeding posted speed limits. Meeting the check pointtimes assumes all directions are followed exactly and specified speeds are maintained for the exact times given in the instructions. Your score is determined according to the deviation from the theoretical time when you should be passing those checkpoints along the course.

Competition at the rally is
organized into four classes: Rookie, SOP (Seat of Pants), Pro and Champion. Rookie and SOP teams use only their car speedometers, a stopwatch and an analogue clock to manage their navigation of the course. Pro and Champion teams use specially calibrated speedometers. Every car must pass a technical inspection prior to beginning the rally. This is similar to the OV at the Concours plus verification that required safety equipment (first aid kit, tow rope, fire extinguisher and safety triangle or flares) is in the car. Competition is divided into four segments: Friday afternoon, Saturday morning and afternoon and Sunday morning. Each session is scored separately and the overall event is scored, as well. Awards for the weekend are presented at lunch on Sunday.

Cars competing range from a 1916 Hudson Hillclimber all the way to 2018 models with nearly everythi
ng in between. Some are stock, some restored and some heavily modified anything goes! Photos of a recent rally. Money raised during the rally benefits the sponsoring organization, usually a local volunteer fire company that serves as rally headquarters, and local charities in that area.
