One of the oldest rally races on the schedule, Susquehannock Trail (commonly known as STPR) began in 1977. It is not only the oldest, but it is also the fastest rally in North America. With roads consisting of clay and gravel, the course is slippery, fast and extremely dangerous. Drivers travel at speeds reaching 100 MPH through densely wooded roads. The speeds combined with the dangerous course ensure that this rally is not for the feint at heart.

STPR is held in Wellsboro, PA, a town settled by early New England colonists and steeped in rich tradition and history. Wellsboro is also located about 15 minutes from the famed 50 mile-long Pennsylvania Grand Canyon, which you can see by foot, horseback, or even by covered wagon. Two national parks border this town, which leaves lots of thick woodland to be covered by the drivers.

Conditions at Susquehannock are nothing short of a racer’s dream. Slick, fast roads ensure that all of the drivers need to bring their A-game if they want a chance at a place on the podium. STPR is always a crowd pleaser and not a rally to be missed!
