Club Meet
Our club race days are the 'bread and butter' events for the club where there is a structured race day format (i.e. Qualifying and Finals), but there are no points awarded towards a championship or series event. It's a great day to relax, meet new people, ask questions.......oh and have a race to hone those skills.
​
The day commences with 2 x Qualifying rounds for each class (e.g. Novice, 2WD Stock, 4WD Stock etc). Each round has a staggered start, runs for 5-minutes and you race against yourself. Points are awarded based on your qualifying times. Your best 1 of 2 qualifiers will be used seed the Mains and ultimately your grid start position.
​
In the finals (i.e. Mains), each class will race 3 times. A final round lasts for 5 minutes and you race against each other from a grid start. Your two best finals will count (points awarded) to determine your result for the day, with your third round (worst result) dropped. Generally a Main will have 10-12 vehicles so depending on entries in the class, there may be groups within each class (e.g. 2WD Stock A-Main, 2WD Stock B-Main, 2WD Stock C-Main).
