  The last Pro Rally of the SCCA '94 season is this weekend, Friday and
  Saturday in Rumford Maine, USA. This might be your very last chance to
  see multiple-time National Pro Rally Champion, Paul Choiniere at the
  wheel of the mighty S2 Turbo Quattro Coupe that won the Mt.Washington
  Hillclimb and the SCCA Pro Rally Championship in years past.
  
  Here's the official poop:
  
  The 1994 Maine Forest Rally will be a Fraday-night-Saturday event
  counting toward the SCCA Championship; it will be the final event, and
  the year-end awards will take place on Saturday night following the
  finish.
  
  Two divisional rallies, counting toward the 1995 Divisional Championship,
  will run. Friday night's will be called the SEVEN ISLANDS Rally and will
  be a coefficient 2; Saturday's, the BOISE CASCADE Rally, will be a
  coefficient 3. Friday's will consist of 4 stages totalling 50 stage
  miles; Satirday's will consist of 4 stages totalling 70 stage miles.
  
  The National course will consist of 8 special stages, ranging in length
  from 6 to 25 miles, with a total stage length of 120 miles. All the
  stages are on gravel, logging roads owned by BOISE CASCADE PAPER CO. and
  SEVEN ISLANDS LAND CO. The roads range from medium fast two lane to
  narrower and twistier 1 1/2 lane; most are of the latter variety. THE
  LONGEST STAGE RUN IN THE UNITED STATES (25 MILES) WILL AGAIN BE RUN ON
  FRIDAY NIGHT!
  
  The weather is the only unknown with which the competitors will have to
  deal. At this time of year some (SOME, HA! E.) snow can be expected.
  According to Tony Lyons, Boise Cascade's road superintendent, 70% of the
  course will be covered with "light" snowfall - 1" to 3 "; some areas may
  have more, others less to none. Exact information on the conditions will
  be provided just before the start each day.
  
  We have set a pleasant schedule so that enjoyment can be had by all. The
  rally will incorporate several innovations which worked well last year;
  we think you'll appreciate them. Also thi year we will be starting the
  Friday section earlier so that everyone will return to the hotel earlier.
  
  Sunday we will be skiing at Sunday River Ski Resort. The year-end awards
  ceremony will again be 'back-east'; come compete in the rally and cheer
  the winners!
  
  Due to the small amount of hotel space in the Runford area, competitors
  are urged to make their reservations early! The Madison Hotel is HQ -
  first come-first served. Each entry will be responsible for making its
  own reservations.
  
  The prize fund for the National will range from $1000 to $3000, depending
  on size of entry, and will be paid at the event. Trohpies will be awarded
  seprately in both the National and Divisional rallies. The entry fee is
  $400.00
