I'll be purchasing LFS in a few days, and was thinking, it'd be really easy to organize point to point races via timed auto cross runs on very liberally designed auto cross tracks.
I mean, after all, the whole thing with rallying is the "point to point" style, and lack of prior knowledge of the setup.
I figure it'd be fun to set up a ventrilo or teamspeak server, and have a bunch of channels for each driver/co-driver pair.
Then have somebody pre-design a series of 20 or so very eventful autocross tracks, then either get somebody who's experienced with pacenotes to run the track and make a .txt to distribute to the racers, or just have the co-driver run the course and do his own style.
Co-Driver prints the pacenotes and sets his view to "spectate" on his teammate's car (in cockpit view of course), then have the driver drop a passenger into his setup.
Driver Co-Driver pairs run each autocross track in rally style, using ventrilo to communicate, then switch to the next track, rinse repeat.
Add up the times, and you have a rally
Do any leagues currently do anything akin to this?
If not, i'd REALLY enjoy seeing this organized
