2025 CSCC ROAD RALLY SEASON

 
April 19 Saturday Series Rally


Sixteen teams entered Cascade’s second of six events in the Saturday Rally Series. Rallymasters Torm Kelsey-Green and Kasey Klaus provided a fun rally romp from Milwaukie Lowe's to Woodland, Washington.

The April rally was a bit longer than an average Saturday Series Rally, with a 120-mile course that took just under four hours to complete. The pace was steady so you always felt you were on your way somewhere, despite the course doubling back and retracing routes and even running some of the same roads backwards. Fun!

Congratulations to the top finishers! First overall was the team of Bob Morseburg and Cheri Eddy. Second overall was the team of Alexander Castaneda and Eric Hanson. Third overall was the Novice team of Travis Cothren and Billy Cundiff.
