DFW: The rally postponed due to the ice storm has been rescheduled for February 22

Children's Book Run, a charity road rally benefiting Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children, was postponed due to ice last December. The event will now be run on February 22.


Help a child have a happier time in hospital, while you are having a fun drive in the country, all the while playing a game loosely based the famous “Clue” game. How can you resist? Course following will be easy, but solving the mystery of “who done it” will be tough.

• Rally Day: Saturday, February 22nd
• Starting Place: Subaru of Plano, 4480 W Plano Pkwy in Plano
• Finish location: Spring Creek Barbeque in McKinney
• Registration/Check-In: 8:30 – 9:30 am on Rally Day
• Starting Time, First Car: 9:45 am plus your car number
• Finish Time, First Car: 1:00 pm, estimated
• Route: It’s a secret, of course, but expect to drive on scenic back roads
• Vehicles: Sports Cars, family sedans, anything with 4 wheels that’s street legal
• Rally Fee: $25.00 / SCCA Members: $20.00 / $5 late fee if not preregistered. In addition, each person in the car should bring a new children’s book as a donation. These will all be delivered to Scottish Rite Hospital after the rally.
• Preregistration is at msreg.com/CBR14msr (do this to get the rules in advance). If you registered in December, you do not need to register again. If some detail of your registration has changed, you can go into motorsportReg.com and edit your registration.
• Awards: First Timers, Novices and General Class

There are 5 Mazdas entered so far.

Yea! It's been 3 years since we had an RX-7....we used to get them pretty regularly. Was that you in the Clear Blue Sky Rally in 2010?

No, it would be my first time.

I am still waiting for the green light on my co-driver having the day off before I sign up.

Fingers crossed, this sounds like alot of fun.

We have 38 cars entered in the Children's Book Run as of today. It looks like we will reach the 40-count average from the 2013 rallies. From Audi (1 entered) to Volkswagen (7 entered). From 1958 to 2014. Long Range weather forecast says 73 degrees warm. Good weather to play "Clue"!

We have 7 Mazdas entered so far: 4 Miatas, 1 each Mazda3, RX-7, and CX-7.
