Rally Cross Report (Nile Davis)
We did not have as many events due to weather, will start in February and see if we can do better. Do not have final numbers, We will work on growing the program. We think we may be able to give out trophies at the end of events, will be shooting for 45 racers per event. Scheduled 10 and will have a hopeful 5, last event coming on the 11th.

Solo Report (Al Hermans)
Solo report to Membership – 12/6/2022 – Annual Report
Kansas City Region held 10 solo events, a test & tune, a novice school, a Starting Line school, and a Street Survival school in 2022. 43 people attended the test & tune, 24 attended the novice school, 24 attended the Starting Line school, 19 attended the Street Survival school, and a total of 1036 attended the 10 solo events. Our biggest event, as it is most years, was the Halloweenie charity event on October 30. Our smallest events were #3 & #4. Once all outstanding reimbursements have been received, the solo program should realize a surplus of over $13,000 for the year.
22 KC members participated in the MiDiv solo series. One qualified for a trophy as class champion.
37 KC members attended Nationals. We had one national champion in Craig Wilcox from this region and 5 other trophy winners.
All else being equal, we are looking forward to an even more successful 2023.
