sprint and hillclimb venues in the country.

The Championship scoring ensures that everyone has a shot at the
overall award (the amazing Wilkinson Sword) & is based on established
class records providing points opportunities for every type of car-
it's been won by Production cars more than once- and the combination
of disciplines and locations means you can plan your season according
to your budget. Indeed, many entrants have tried the championship
in completely standard road cars and found themselves competitive
in class - a cost -effective way of entering motorsport.
The awards are generous. The Overall Winner receives the unique
Wilkinson Sword (with the names of many speed luminaries already
on it) plus £250. The runner up £100 and a Trophy, along
with trophies for class winners. Rallye
Communications Ltd runs a Top Six Challenge for fastest times
set at a meeting with a trophy and £75 for the winner with
trophy and £25 to the runner up. Last but not least, for Production
and Roadgoing classes, Emerald
offer the winner a Days Rolling road and use of their set up facilities.

CHAMPIONSHIP
SCORING SYSTEM
The system is based entirely
on your time measured against the championship
class record. So, assuming you were 0.25 seconds
slower than the class record, you would score
19.75 points. If you were 5.00 seconds slower,
you would score 15 points and so on down to
a minimum of 5 points. BUT - IF you beat the
class reord by 0.21 then you score 20.21 points.
I hope this will overcome the ongoing lottery
of how many people compete in your class - it
won't matter in 2009. All you have to do is
go faster - and that is what speed events are
all about!
