About this event
The 10th annual Rallycross Fest is upon us! Nestled in the trees and mountains of beautiful Snoqualmie, WA , DirtFish Rally School provides the best background for an amazing weekend of racing.
[Take note! Rallycross Fest is now a race-only event. If you’re interested in taking a rallycross workshop, be sure to sign up for our email list to be the first to know when they’re happening.]
This event consists of two race days with two very different courses with multiple surfaces, technical components and some fast sections. Times from both days will be tallied and the winners for each class will get to celebrate at the podium celebration on Sunday (complete with champagne).
In between run sessions, grab a bite at one of the food trucks, shop for swag and check out some vendors. This event is a ton of fun for friends and family to spend the weekend with you and see what rallycross is all about!

Definition
A rallycross is a motorsports event where vehicles race on a course delineated by cones on generally unpaved, mostly flat surfaces. Elapsed time is tracked by the organizer with time-based penalties assessed for actions such as missed cones and driving off-course. Scoring is the accumulation of timed runs plus penalties where the lowest time wins. One car is released at a time with course workers monitoring cones and penalties.
Rallycross events are structured as a run-work format where competitors race during their class session and work the course when another class races.
Conduct of Competitors
Each competitor must:
- Practice good sportsmanship at all times.
- Register for and compete in the appropriate class for their vehicle. It is the driver’s responsibility to know the correct class based on the rules and vehicle classifications set forth in the Rallycross Rules.

- Know, understand and follow all rules as stated herein, in competitor communications and required driver meetings.
- Treat all officials, volunteers, spectators, the public and other competitors with respect and courtesy.
- Obey all laws and local ordinances, most importantly as they pertain to traffic laws.
- Not dispose of trash anywhere on site except for designated garbage receptacles.
- Follow the prescribed course. It is the competitor’s responsibility to know the course in order to keep other competitors, course workers and spectators safe. Competitors will be given the opportunity to walk and drive the course prior to competition.
