If any Entrant is proposing to have additional road crew, family, friend, wife, husband, girlfriend, boyfriend, personnel trainer, photographer or agent etc follow the Event, there will be a ‘Road Crew Booking Form’ that will advise the Organisers if any of the aforementioned require meals en-route or tickets to the Presentation Dinner. Fees are applicable and will be provided in future Bulletins. Additional crew will not receive ‘GA’ Tickets to the Formula 1™ Australian Grand Prix as part of this package. The Organisers will require full payment for any additional crew prior to the Event as we are no longer able to afford ‘non-paying’ extra’s on the day and refusal on the day may offend. Navigation: The style of Navigation involves plotting on maps supplied, reading off a compass, travelling the road as mapped and being observant. The Organisers will conduct a free Navigation School prior to the first Navigation and follow up review notes each evening. Navigation Equipment: Or what navigators will need! A decent magnifying glass, highlighter pens, a clipboard, (A4 or A3 Size), clutch pencils and erasers. A Compass would be handy but the clear plastic Rally Roamer has a compass included, remembering that all maps read north. Scoring: Each run of each Sub-Event of the Event will be scored individually. Points will be awarded in order of finishing from highest to lowest as follows: 1st = 100 points, 2nd = 99 points, 3rd = 98 points, 4th = 97 points etc and so on down to the last competitor. In the event of “Tied Places”, the average of the scores for those places will be awarded to each Crew. Thus, if three Crews tied for second place, add 99 + 98 + 97 = 294 divided by 3 = 98 points per Crew. CAMS Club membership and L2S Licences: Make sure your CAMS Affiliated Car Club Membership will be current for 2007. The minimum CAMS Licence requirement for the Event is Level 2S.
