We are pleased to be part of the ANWCC RALLY CHAMPIONSHIPS, GLYNNE EDWARDS MEMORIAL CHAMPIONSHIP, WAMC ROAD RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP, and WBCC ROAD RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP for this year..

They will be driven with as little noise as possible, without the use of auxiliary lamps except in conditions of fog or falling snow. There are no lateness penalties, except towards OTL. 2. STANDARD These sections are used to test navigation. And can be timed to the second. 13 CONTROLS / TIMING A number of controls will be timed to an accuracy of less than 1 minute; competitors are reminded of R 12.5.1 Examples of each type of board to be used will be on display in the signing-on room at the start. Controls must be visited in the order on the Time Card. Competitors may reduce lateness and are reminded of R12.6.1 Should an entry on a Time Card not be legible, or not appear to be authentic it may be considered not to have been made. Organisers may refer to Marshals Check-sheets in case of doubt. Any alterations or amendments to Time cards will only be accepted if countersigned by the marshal at time of amendment. It is the competitor’s responsibility to ensure that his/her time card is correctly marked. It is not the duty of the marshal to neither interpret these Regulations, MSA regulations, or any other written instruction given to the competitors, nor explain the meaning thereof. Main Time Control:- Located throughout the event and their location is given. The marshal will record his/her signature, direction of approach and the time showing on the clock when the competitor’s time card is presented, in hours and minutes. You must visit these controls within your Maximum Lateness to be classified as a finisher. 7 Standard Time Control:- These timed controls are located at the end of a Standard Section and their location is given in advance. The marshal will record his/her signature, direction of approach and the time showing on the clock when the competitor’s time card is presented, in hours, minutes and sometimes seconds. Neutral Time Control:- These timed controls are located at the end of a Neutral Section and their location is given in advance. The marshal will record his/her signature, direction of approach and the time showing on the clock when the competitor’s time card is presented, in hours and minutes. Passage Control (PC):- Un-timed manned control to prove adherence to the correct route. The competitor must stop and present the Time Card for the marshal who will enter his/her name and direction of approach. They may be replaced by a Route Check (RC) with no notice. Route Checks (RC):- This unmanned PC will be identified by a CODE BOARD at the road side, containing a number of letters and/or numbers which must be noted by the competitor onto the Time Card, and signed for by the marshal at the next manned control to prove adherence to correct route. Secret Checks (DSO):- Manned by a Driving Standards Observer, location will not be given. All competitors must stop and hand over their DSO / Damage card to the observer. Secret Checks will be established to ensure compliance with the Regulations, in particular the following under R 9.1.3. Give Ways. Competitors will be required to stop at all junctions specified as “Stop” and or “Give Way” junctions on the route cards. At these junctions all four wheels must be seen to stop and all forward motion must cease.

Additionally, the use of Quiet Boards followed by OK boards will be placed to aid crews. They will be driven with as little noise as possible, without the use of auxiliary lamps except in conditions of fog or falling snow. 15 BLACK-SPOTS Certain areas may be classified as Black-Spots. Competitors must not enter these areas for any reason, even upon retirement as they are P.R. sensitive areas. The penalty for infringement is Exclusion. 8 16 DAMAGE Damage checks to competing cars will be made at the start, during the event and at the end. All competitors will be required to complete a damage declaration form to be handed in at the finish or in case of retirement forwarded to the secretary within 72 hours. Failure to do so will result in a competitor being reported to the MSA and Club committee. Competitors are reminded that the submission of a damage declaration form does not in itself negate their responsibilities within the law if they have been involved in a Road Traffic Accident. Any injury/damage to third parties MUST be reported to the Police and Organisers immediately, so they may arrange prompt repairs. Competitors are reminded that R 15.1.4. is amended to include damage below the horizontal plane at the wheel centre as per SR 20. 17 RESULTS Assessment of performances between crews will favour the crews with the least total Fail penalties, and so on. Ties will favour the crew who incur the lesser time penalty. Unresolved ties will then be judged in the favour of furthest cleanest. If still unresolved engine capacity will therefore decide. To be classified as a finisher a competitor must visit all Main Controls, Noise checks and scrutineering (“Damage”) within OTL in the same car that they started and avoid the penalty of exclusion. Provisional results will be published as soon as possible after the last car has finished at the finish venue. Protests must be made in accordance with MSA regulation C 5. Results may be declared final 30 minutes after being declared provisional at the finish. 18 AWARDS Awards will be presented at the finish venue once results are declared final.
