Our next Rally is open for sign-up.

It’s time to revisit our friendly TEAM CHALLENGE again. This Event has now become a regular 6 monthly Event, with the Rest of the World taking the title last time. The Europeans look strong lately though, and have more numbers.

We will be driving the traditional Group N cars again, which are well matched and quite stable to drive. We have added the N4_3 cars again, to widen the choices.

As usual, the Stages cover a very wide range of road surfaces, countries, weather, and time of day, to make it a varied challenge.

The Team Challenge: This is mainly a fun Team Challenge to add some interest (and bragging rights ). Drivers must nominate for their Team based on their Country (not which timezone Rally they join).
Points will be allocated based on finishing positions in each Stage, plus bonus points for the Overall Result.

Points: (dependent on the size of the grid).
Example based on 15 drivers:
P1 = 15 points, P2 = 14 pts, P3 = 13 pts, etc. No points if you don’t finish the Stage.

The same bonus points apply for the overall Rally position.

All drivers score points for their Team, even if one Team has more drivers (the bigger the Team, the better its chances).
However, we hope that we can end up with closely balanced Team numbers, even if a driver or two decides to join the opposition to help out.

Highest points Team is the winner.

Here is a link to our last TEAM CHALLENGE, so you can see how it all works:

If requests are made for any additional timezones, or changes to Start times to better suit your local needs, we will try to include them ( but within the Monday/Tuesday periods).

Good luck all, and hope we see a good roll up to support your international team.
