    GROUND/AIR SHIPPING
    Each participant is responsible for the logistics and costs of shipping their own car(s) to and from the event. Let us know if we can be of assistance in connecting you to others from your area.

    VEHICLE SECURITY
    We will have parking lot security each night 6:30pm to 6:30am where deemed necessary.

    TRANSPORT LOGISTICS
    Shipping SINGLE cars to and from Spokane can be a logistical challenge. Because of this, each year we receive requests to know who is in your part of the country so you can buddy up on shipping. We will not share names, emails, or phone numbers without your permission out of respect for your privacy. So, if you would like to work with your fellow ralliers to coordinate transport, please tell us. Once we receive your permission, we'll send an email to like-minded rally members. Also, tell us where your car is located if it isn't being shipped from the address you have given us.
