The AWDCC/NECC has accepted entries as shown in the entry list (Attachment 1).

Competitors are requested to check entry list details and advise Amanda Ramia (ph 0421 814 276) of any errors.

2. SCRUTINY

Scrutiny will be conducted as per Supplementary Regulations Art. 10.

3. DOCUMENTATION AND BOOK-IN

Rally Safe GPS tracking unit screens will be available for pick up from Rally HQ while Documentation and Book-in is open.

4. ROAD BOOKS

Road Books will be issued following completion of Book-in. Competitors are reminded that reconnaissance by Crews on the roads in the general area of the Event is forbidden for a period of four weeks prior to the start of the Event (Supplementary Regulations Art. 17.1).

The same FIA format Road Book is being employed on this Event as previous years. An example is included in Attachment 3. The key differences to the National Rally Code and what Competitors have been used to include:

Liaison immediately following a Special Stage does not start on a new page. An instruction commencing the liaison is included at the same distance as the Stop point instruction

Five instructions per page not six or seven.

Tulips do not change from full to dashed going off bitumen, but the narrow column between Direction and Information columns changes from black to white.

Kilometres show a comma, not a decimal point

Roads in tulips not to be exited terminate with a “T”

Page numbers are shown in the top right hand corner outside the text box; and

Tulip symbols are different for, Gutter, Stump, Tree and Spectators.

5. ODOMETER CHECK

The Organiser’s odometer read 5.00km on the C544 Dartmouth Rd from the 1 km white post, located adjacent to a “Slippery when Frosty” sign, on the north side of the road, 1 km from the Omeo Highway, or 300m east of the Mitta North Rd to the 6km white post heading towards Dartmouth. The Event start and Service Park are located on Mitta North Rd, 1.4 km south of the junction with the C544 as per Locality Plan in Attachment 2.

It is necessary for all Service Crew Personnel to sign a Disclaimer Form during Documentation or Book-in periods at Scrutiny or Rally HQ before the event in order to be covered by CAMS Personal Accident Insurance and to minimise their own liability.
