The championship will be exclusively for

eligible to score points. The classes are
structured as follows;
Class 1: Group N cars up to and including
1600cc 2wd.
Class 1A: Group N cars up to and including
2000cc 2wd.
Class 2: N cars over 2000cc including all
4WD Group N Cars.
Class 3: Clubman (Group A and modified) cars
up to and including 1400cc not having more
than 2 valves per cylinder - 2 wheel drive
only.
Class 4: Clubman (Group A and modified) cars
up to and including 1400cc having more than
2 valves per cylinder - 2 wheel drive only.
Class 5: Clubman (Group A and modified) cars
from 1401cc up to and including 1650cc not
having more than 2 valves per cylinder - 2
wheel drive only.
Class 6: Clubman (Group A and modified) cars
from 1401cc up to and including 1650cc
having more than 2 valves per cylinder - 2

Class 7: Clubman (Group A and modified) cars

(including Rotary engined) having more than
2 valves per cylinder - 2 wheel drive only.
Class 9:All other eligible cars including
Turbo Charged 2wd, and 4wd cars whose
homologation has expired NOT including any
WRC’s.
It will be a class based championship with
points scored as per class finish therefore
giving a class one competitor an equal
footing on overall standings with a
competitor in class 9 and vice versa.
Six bonus points will be awarded for each
registered competitor starting all five
rounds. Competitors who start four rounds
AND contribute in a significant manner (as
defined by the Championship committee) to a
fifth event will be awarded six bonus
points. (this is to encourage competitors to
work on their “local” event). In addition,
registered competitors who are placed on the
reserve list of any of the counting rounds,
who do not achieve a “start”, will be
awarded two points on a once off basis for
assisting in the said round. Such points can
ONLY be rewarded if proof of assistance at
an event is provided.
So the scene is set for what should be an
exciting season of rallying in the Midlands,
starting with Birr Multi stage in February
and making its way via Midland in April and
after a summer rest to ALMC in August,
Castle Single stage in September to a finale
in Wicklow with the GSMC Mini Stages which
will hopefully take us down to the wire as
in all the best sporting finales.
Competitors can also register at the first 5
rounds
