Opposite-Lock's third-annual Oppocross rallycross in rural Michigan saw community-built cars raced on a converted farmland dirt track, including a heavily rusted 2006 Ford Freestar that was driven at the event.
The event was organized by the Opposite-Lock forum and Autopian reader Shop-Teacher, and it was hosted by user Oppo 454SS. A secret scrapper and community volunteers supplied and prepared cars.
Organizers converted privately owned farmland into a layout featuring sweeping turns, washboards, technical sections and an air jump, with a back straight long enough for some cars to exceed 60 mph.
The Autopian account notes that Autopian's Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet also competed and highlights Oppocross's community-cars concept and the camaraderie among forum members.
