Stage Rally Championship


The CMSG will promote a Stage Rally Championship (MSA Championship Permit Number 2008/5703) consisting of selected events which take place in the area between 1st January and 31st December 2008.   There will be a £10 registration fee for this Championship for each competitor, for which the closing date for registration is 31st August 2008.   Points will only be awarded for events entered after registration.

The Championship comprises of 15 rounds, and a competitors best SEVEN scores from the year will count towards both their Overall & Class placings, with no more than FIVE scores from either half of the season being taken into account - 30th June being the halfway mark.   Should any of the events not run, the Championship Coordinator will endeavour to find a substitute.

Points as scored as follows:-
Overall    1st - 25 points    2nd - 24 points    3rd - 23 points
               and so on down to 1 point for 25th place
               In addition, each competitor who starts an event will gain 5 points
Class        1st - 10 points    2nd - 9 points    3rd - 8 points
               and so on down to 1 point for 10th place
               In addition, each competitor who starts an event will gain 1 point
Should a competitor change classes, as long as they adhere to the class rules, class points already gained will be frozen, but they will keep any points gained in the overall placings.

Classes are A - up to 1400cc, B - 1401cc-1600cc, C - 1601cc-2000cc & D - over 2000cc
but, 4WD cars are excluded and all forced induction cars must have their original engine & transmission configuration.

If an event organiser is unable to resolve a tie, both competitors will receive the same points and the next competitor two less.   Ties at the end of the season will be resolved by:-
i)    Least number of events entered
ii)   Lowest Capacity (overall only)
iii)  Highest position on any event in the Championship
iv)  Highest number of maximum points
