Ojibwe Forests Rally | www.ojibweforestrally.com

Smooth, fast roads, fantastic weather, and nighttime stages make this 6th rally on the circuit one of the best for spectators. It is also a late season chance for drivers to up their points within the Championship Series and push for a top standing at the end of the season.


LOCATION | Bemidji, MN

Held in Northern Minnesota’s lake and vacation country, everyone should remember to bring their hiking boots along with them to this rally. Surrounded by a multitude of state forests such as Paul Bunyan, Smokey Hills, and Two Inlets, this rally’s location is nothing short of spectacular. Heavily wooded forests and lakes are key features of this area, adding to the rally’s appeal and making the race all that more enjoyable to watch.


CONDITIONS |

The roads at Ojibwe are fast and smooth, and drivers often cite this rally as one of their favorite races- although the roads are demanding, they are also extremely fun to navigate. Spectacular summer weather means that this rally is a favorite for spectators too! However, Ojibwe’s roads are also marked by soft, sandy spots, which can create trouble for rally teams, as sand can slow cars down and make it difficult to make up for time lost. This means that co-drivers need to be especially accurate with their instructions, as many a top podium spot has been lost to the sand.
