The Rally Drivers & Co-drivers Championships are open the all clubs members, who can score points on any events they choose to compete on. The points system aims to find the most successful competitors regardless of which class they compete on and takes in to account the level of the sport they compete at. We had 14 Rally Drivers & 16 Co-Drivers out in 2007.

The points system was revised in 2006 in order to better classify competitors in order of how well they do on their best rallies, rather than those people doing the most events automatically scoring the most points. The new system also makes calculation of points simpler. Therefore the points awarded for 2008 (shown in the table on the right) are as follows: -

  • A DNF will score 5 points regardless of how far through the event you get. (remember you can now drop your worst scores).

  • Finishing a rally outside of the top-10 in your class gets 10 points on National B rallies.

  • National A rallies (eg Manx, Bulldog etc.) or events over 2 or more days (eg. Rockingham, Jersey Rally) score 5 bonus points (except road rallies).

  • Finishing in the top-10 in your class or the top-3 overall scores bonus points.

  • 12-Car rallies just score 15pts for 1st down to 5pt for 10th or lower (i.e. no starting/finishing pts)

  • If a driver competes in a driving event other than a rally (eg 12-car, hill climb, autotest, race etc) the points will be scored as per the blue column (other events).

The Social Cup awards points as shown in the 'other events' category above, if they are competitive, (such as ten-pin bowling, autotest etc) and for non-competitive events 20pts for whole day and 10pts for ½ day events.

The Servicing / Marshalling Championship aims to recognise the efforts of those members who help organise, run and service on events. Points are awarded 20pts for a whole day and 10pts for half-day attendance. A named official role (e.g., clerk of the course, chief marshal etc. is worth 5 bonus points per day).
