Intro
Gday Islanders! So, last year in July I ran this competition and up until now i completely forgot when it was going to happen. I'm gonna have to either figure out some reason why this is now being done in the winter instead in Ainslie, or why it was postponed... nevertheless, this is happening this year - very soon in fact - I think what I'll run with is that the rally championship needed snow stages, so the third track has been chosen and the whole competition was moved back to december.
The ground rules and what's going on is mainly what happened last year so there doesn't really seem to be a reason to not just copy paste that. If you competed last year, nothing's changed - if you haven't competed so far in this, please read the below and fill in the application if you wish to compete.
Essentially, what will happen is that you’ll submit an application and then the team or teams you send will compete in three different races:
- Sunset Coast Rally - a 125km race made up of multiple stages where racers will have to navigate the firetrails and the unsealed back trails of the wilderness north of the city of Mandara - a scrubby, unforgiving landscape, this track is sure to challenge participants as they try to get past the finish line first.
- Kennedai Forest Rally - a 150km race made up of multiple stages where drivers will traverse through the remote forests of lower Norlands, navigating muddy and at times bog-prone tracks as well as more stronger gravel roads as they complete the mammoth distance that is ahead of them. This track will test endurance, perseverance and the determination of drivers. And who knows, I may just for the fun of it eliminate a bunch of people who are too slow or don’t make it to the finish line so they don’t advance to the Herriden Hills Rally.
- Herriden Hills Rally - a 120km track made up of multiple stages where drivers will navigate the narrow and winding roads of Wesland’s back country. The steepness and unpredictability of conditions is sure to trouble drivers as they vie for the ultimate glory in this final stage of the Ainslie Rally championship. This track will test the nerves and is the culmination of the effort exerted in the previous events - only one team will have a photo finish, descending down the hills and into Herriden’s centre after a remarkable and commendable effort. This year, as a result of the need for snow stages, the tournament has been postponed until now so that the Wesland Ranges can for the first time host rally cars during the snow season.
