Route |
| a |
Built up areas should not be used for average
speed sections (also called regularities
or regularity stages) and are to be avoided
if at all possible. Even if rural, certain
sensitive areas should be avoided such as
cemeteries, hospitals, churches, playgrounds,
etc. |
| b |
Private roads, if not normally used by and
accessible to the public, must not be
used without written permission from
whoever is authorized to give such permission. |
| c
|
Must be such that there are refueling stops
available not over 250 km apart or as
published in Supplementary Regulations. |
| d |
For the Championship the route should work
out to be a minimum of 7 hours long.
|
| |
|
|
| 7. |
Instructions |
| a
|
wording should be understandable, clear
and unambiguous and not rely on local
knowledge by the competitors |
| b |
must be easy to read, in printed format
and neatly spaced |
| c |
must be given out at the start of each day
and be complete for that day. It is
permissible to give out the instructions before
the drivers meeting or at equal time
before each car's out time. |
| d |
may contain a diagram, generally called
a TULIP diagram. In the TULIP your position
is the dot, and you travel to the arrow. Although
generally they cover what is visible,
it is at the steward's discretion to
combine tulips or add more as deemed
necessary for precision. |
| |
They may contain symbols for: |

| e |
Speeds in average speed sections must be
reasonable for the expected road conditions
and not exceed the posted speed minus 10%.
In areas where there are no posted speeds
obvious it will be assumed that the rural
posted speed is 80 km/h and urban posted speed
is 50 km/h. |
| f
|
average speed sections should not
use the same piece of road for routing rally
traffic in opposite directions at the
same time, taking into consideration cars
being late and the expected number
of entries. If oncoming traffic - this
should be explained at the drivers meeting.
If entry numbers exceed those expected so
that a possible conflict will result,
there should be a warning issued during the
drivers meeting identifying the possible
hazard. |
| g |
Championship events must start with an odometer
check section. Obvious visual clues
and not distances must be used for all turns.
All instructions must be clear and precise
with no average speeds and with an adequate
amount of time allotted to complete
it and still have some time to recalibrate
odometers or recalculate mileage's several
instructions ahead. The section should be
a minimum of 15 km and must be no less
than 10 km. Rally distance must be within
2% of statute distance. |

renumbering. |
| j |
PAUSES should be incorporated into the instructions
which shall be a minimum of 15
minutes in each timed section lasting over
1.5 hours. Furthermore, shorter PAUSES
shall be used to allow sufficient time for
safe negotiation in all instances of
STOP signs, YIELD signs, or traffic
signals during a timed section with a minimum
being 10 seconds. It is preferable to
avoid any of these traffic delays in a timed
section. Pauses shall have a .2
km control free window after the pause point.
|
| k |
TRANSITS shall allow sufficient time, at
10% less than posted speeds, for the
teams to make it to the start of the
next timed section on time and should allow
a further 10 minutes to spare. |
| l |
Signs and landmarks referred to in the instructions
should be clearly visible in the
direction of travel and be legible from the
rally route under the anticipated conditions. |
| m |
Any road with a permanently erected sign
such as "Private", "Dead
End", "No Exit", "Road
Closed", "Cul de Sac",
etc. shall not be used or counted as a road
UNLESS specifically indicated as such
in the instructions. |
| n |
Wording on signs shall be indicated in the
instructions with "Quote marks".
The full wording on the sign need not necessarily
be given but enough wording should be
given that it does not become a recognition
puzzle to the rallyists. |
| o |
Hazards should be indicated in the instructions
with mileage reference and should give
details of the hazard.
CAUTION ! - drivers should approach
warily (could cost time)
CAUTION !! - drivers should be prepared
to brake (could bend car and cause a DNF (Did
Not Finish)
CAUTION !!! - drivers should slow and negotiate
the hazard with extreme care (could total
car and injure competitors) |
| p
|
Recovery points should be used where feasible. |
| q |
Precedence of route. Where no instruction
is given, a competitor shall continue
on the road being traveled as defined
by the following priorities in the order in
which they appear:
i/ that is protected from entering traffic
by STOP or YIELD signs
ii/ that is of similar road surface (paved
vs. unpaved)
iii/ that follows numbered or named highway
iv/ continues
straight ahead or as nearly straight ahead
as possible, and
v/ in all other cases, clarifying
instructions will be given. |
| r |
Signs beyond the road to be turned on shall
be indicated as (example of format):
R before SOR or L before
SOL etc. and the mileage indicated shall be
taken at the turn, not the sign. |
| |
|
|
| 8. |
Controls

Timing
for the Championship series |
| |
All BC Region championship
events must use this scoring system. |
| a |
Each control will have a penalty free zone
one second each side of perfect time.
A penalty of 1 point per second beyond
this zone is assessed at each control.
| |
i/ For winter rallies,
if fully defined in the event's
supplementary regulations, a larger
and variable penalty free window
is allowed. For a more detailed
explanation please refer to Appendix
D. |
|

Organizers must keep in mind at all times
that safety must prevail and therefore
they should use PAUSES, FREE ZONES, and adequate
transit allowances to alleviate the
need for speeding. |

A maximum of 5 minutes (300 points) will
be assessed for missed controls or maximum
lateness after the control has closed to a
maximum of 600 points in any one regularity. |

if it did not pass at least one control
in each leg, as defined by the event. Legs
will generally be bounded by gas stops
or overnight stops. |

|
Standard control procedure is to drive by
controls without stopping. The control
official will record the time. |

Any team coming upon the scene of an accident
(regardless of whether it is a rally
entrant or other) is expected to do the following. |
| |
| a |
Verify that accident
victims are not injured. |
| |
i/ If the people involved in
the accident do not require emergency
help, the navigator must make
note of the distance (mileage point
within the rally) and make note of the
time of departure and the team shall
proceed maintaining previous average
speed (CAS). {For rally scoring
purposes we shall take the arrival
time at the scene of the accident to
be a perfect zero thereby not penalizing
the team for stopping!} |
| |
ii/ If injuries have occurred,
tend to treatment of injuries

APPENDIX
D |
| |
Winter Rally scoring
explanation |
| |
At the first control, scoring will be 1
penalty point per second early or late from
absolute rally time, less a one second grace
period. If you are late X seconds at a control,
the grace period at the next control will
be from 1 second early to (X + 1) seconds
late. If you are early X seconds at a control,
the grace period at the next control will
be from 1 second late to (X + 1) seconds early.
In every case, the grace period depends only
on the immediately previous control. |
| |
Scoring example: |
| |
If you are 35 seconds late at the first
control, you are assessed 34 points. If you
are then 41 seconds late at the
next control, you are assessed 5 more points
(grace period was 36 seconds late).
If you are then 25 seconds late at the following
control, you are not assessed
any penalty (grace period was 42 seconds late).
If at the next control you are back
to 35 seconds late, you are assessed 9 more
points (grace period was 26 seconds
late). If at the last control you are 18 seconds
early, you are assessed a further 17
points, for a total of 65 points. |

note on safety equipment: The regulations
on minimum mandatory first aid equipment
have been tightened for 2005. Because our

medical help, in the unlikely event of an
accident involving injury, the first people
on the scene will be other competitors,
and they will the people best positioned
to administer first aid. To that end, where
the regulations used to require only a basic
first aid kit, contents undefined, RPM has
now defined what must be in that kit: |
