event. Class winners are also determined by the same formula.
SAORRA Driver of the year and Multi Club Series points are only awarded to clubs affiliated with SAORRA and are the same as SAORC
points.
The S.A.Off Road Championship will consist of 4 rounds –Round 1 Baroota, Round 2 Waikerie, Round 3 Naracoorte, Round 4 Pines. Points
from all rounds count.
The SAORRA Multi Club Series is conducted over 6 rounds with the highest point scorer overall to be deemed the winner.
Points shall be allocated to drivers and navigators of the first 10 cars in each class as follows:
1 st 2 nd 3 rd 4 th 5 th 6 th 7 th 8 th 9 th 10 th
20 15 12 10 8 6 4 3 2 1
A further allocation will be made to the first 20 cars outright as follows:
1 st 2 nd 3 rd 4 th 5 th 6 th 7 th 8 th 9 th 10 th 11 th 12 th 13 th 14 th 15 th 16 th 17 th 18 th 19 th 20 th
20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
Share Drivers or Navigators: If two or more drivers share a car then points will be shared equally between drivers. If two or more navigators share
a car then points will be shared equally between navigators. If either of the aforementioned happens, this must be notified to the Event Officials
either via the entry form or personally before the event starts. In an emergency where an additional navigator is required during the race, this must
be notified to the Event Secretary before the person enters the car, that person must be entered in the event on an entry form of another competitor.
The reason for this is two fold, both for CAMS insurance and for the S.A. Championship points allocation. There will be no points gained by drivers
and navigators in the event prologue. Any navigators who travel in two or more cars at an Event, must notify, prior to the Event start, in which car
they wish to accumulate points. Their presence in the other car(s) will be ignored. Also any navigator who is named on the entry form must
compete in the Event to gain points.
