Rules Changes for 2008
June 1, 2008 | Leave a Comment
There are two significant rule changes this year.Firstly, the scoring system has changed to move toward even weighting for factor 1 (goal laps / laps completed + bonus laps) and factor 2 (lap time spread). In the past the formulae has made factor 2 several times more important in the results. We think this change will benefit teams who persistently & diligently complete laps.
The second change is to the penalty procedure. The two most common rule transgressions in previous years have been not obeying the blend line on pit exit and exceeding the speed limit in pit lane. Both of these are important safety issues. We will follow the lead of the professional series and automatically allocate penalties without summonsing the driver to the clerk of course office. Please read the penalty section it’s intended to make running of the event more transparent and run more smoothly, it is not intended to be difficult.

Accommodation in Benalla is filling fast for the weekend of the AROCA 6 hour. Many teams booked as they left last year and a square dancing competition in Benalla means motel rooms are scarce. There are a number of smaller towns near Winton with accommodation (mainly cabins & caravan parks) or Wangaratta where there is a wide range of Motels, hotels and other accommodation.
A list of accommodation in all towns surrounding Winton can be downloaded from the website.
