The goal of the MaxAttack! Triple Crown Rally
Series is to fulfill the mission of the RSGA by raising the level and
awareness of meaningful two-wheel-drive competition in North America.
The Rally Sports Group of America will pay out a total cash purse of
$24,000 USD to be divided amongst the fastest teams competing in the
MaxAttack! Triple Crown Rally Championship in 2008. RSGA seeks to
provide an attainable and sustainable entry point into performance
rally, resulting in broader awareness and increased participation in the
sport.
The Term: MAXATTACK!
The term MaxAttack! comes from the expression Maximum Attack. It's roots
are in the lexicon of the World Rally Championship drivers from the
1980s. After each day of rally the television reporters would interview
the drivers to get their comments on the days rallying and perhaps some
insight on their strategy for the next day. Often times a driver had to
make up time on another driver or defend a lead which would require
driving at 100% of a driver's ability, hurtling their cars as fast as
they possibly could over the rocks, jumps, and through hairpin corners
as they were cheered on by throngs of wild rally fans on the sides of
the roads.. In this case when asked by the press how they would be
proceeding the next day the answer, which foretold of maximum speed,
flirting with risk, and an absolutely fearless attitude for the next
day, was simply Maximum Attack.
