Rally Revival - Entries Open for the Measham Rally

Friday 10 November 2017

2018 will see a Rally Revival, incorporating a brand new class structure, and some fantastic new and improved Rallies! Have a go and take part in the first Rally of 2018 - the exciting overnight Measham Rally...
To make VSCC Rallies more accessible to everyone and to encourage Competitors of all abilities to successfully find the route, keep to time and enjoy the event we have decided upon the following structure of three classes:-

CHAMPAGNE CLASS
Open to any Pre-war car (Buff Forms not necessary). Instructions will take the form of a straight-forward ‘Roadbook’ style with simple instructions e.g. "3.7 miles Turn Left at T junction into Smithy Lane Signpost Chipping".
Instructions will be accompanied by Tulip diagrams of junctions and sections of marked up OS maps. Hints will be given with timing. These instructions are designed to allow complete beginners to get round the route keeping to a reasonable time schedule. Competitors will receive their instructions 45 minutes before their start time. We can virtually guarantee ‘you will not get lost!’ The event winner cannot come from this class. The winning driver and navigator will each receive a bottle of Champagne. This would be an ideal class for beginners, novices or those who just want a more relaxing Rally.

CLUBMAN CLASS
Open to any Pre-war car (Buff Forms not necessary). Instructions will be by the most straight-forward rally conventions (e.g. map features, spot heights and tulips) which competitors plot onto an OS map. There will be NO complex rally instructions. Hints will be given with timing. Competitors in this class will receive their instructions 30 minutes before their start time. The event winner cannot come from this class. The winning driver and navigator will also each receive a bottle of wine. This class could be seen as a step-up from the Champagne Class, an entry level class for those who like map reading or again for those who want a more relaxing rally.

TROPHY CLASS
To enter this class your car MUST have a Buff Form. Instructions may include any usual rally conventions (as appear in ‘Finding Your Way’). Instructions will be available 15 minutes before you start. The event winners may only come from this class. Awards and trophies will be awarded in the usual way.
Entrants may enter which class they choose. There is NO promotion or relegation!
There will also be a Junior Navigator Award, for the winning navigator under 21, in each Rally and an annual Junior Navigator Trophy presented at the end of the season.
