Held over the ANZAC Day long weekend, April 25-27, the fully pacenoted event comprises 11 special stages held over 126 kilometers of some of the state’s best rally roads.
In an innovative move, 4WD and 2WD competitors will have equal prize-winning opportunity with a $500, $300 & $200 reward for the placegetters in each class respectively.
In another first, placegetters in a new ‘handicap’ class will also receive the same generous prize-structure, giving all competitors an opportunity for their performances to be rewarded.
In addition, a prize-pool of key rally products will also be awarded to assist the crew’s further participation in additional events in the series.
Interstate competitors looking to gain pacenote experience on the tricky SA stages will also be rewarded with the ‘challenge of champions’ trophy.
Entries are already flowing in with many high-profile ARC crews keen to drive some of the best rally roads in the state and use the event for test and development before the Rally of SA in August.
With the Bremen Valley stages not being used for many years, ‘local knowledge’ is at a minimum, which is sure to create a more level playing field and a fresh challenge for both the SA and interstate crews.
Supp Regs are now available online at www.sarally.com.au. Entries close on April 18 with the event limited to 60 crews.
