And you will have some great bragging rights during the Winter Olympics in 2014.
So, what is a Gimmick Rally? According to North America Motorsports, a Gimmick Rally is a very good way to introduce yourself to the sport of Rally. Normally a Gimmick Rally will have some puzzle to solve. Often the contestants must search for answers to questions, which may provide clues to where the rally route goes, and might be answers to questions about signs and buildings on the route.Generally these are low key events where the primary object is to have fun, rather than serious competition. Most, but not all, Gimmick Rallies are won by luck or chance, rather than skill.
