Well, at the end of the last series we asked the teams who took
part in it for some feedback. One of the most interesting topics was about how teams had to take part in all the races to
score maximum points. This year we have changed things a little. Teams will now use their 5 highest scores from 7 days of
racing. We think 5 from 7 gives teams the greatest choice.
-
All of the events picking their 5 best scores.
-
2 X 2 day events & 1 X 1 day event.
-
2 X 2 day events & The Kilbroney Challenge.
-
4 X 1 day events & The Kilbroney Challenge.
-
3 X 1 day events & 1 X 2 day event.
-
2 X 1 day events, 1 X 2 day event & The Kilbroney Challenge.
-
The choices just keep going on.
The dates below are those which we'll be counting. 300 points
will be on offer for the winning team on each days worth of racing. Scores will then go on a sliding scale decreasing 3
points with each place, so 2nd place will get 297 points, 3rd place 294 and so on. Teams need to remain the same
to score points in the series.
All 1 day and 2 day teams will race head
to head over 20 checkpoints in numeric order. Teams must visit all the checkpoints or risk having their final score cut in
half. Fastest team wins and scores 300 points, each team after drops three points.
23rd-24th February 2 day race
For the 2 day events the Night Nav. on Saturday & all of Sunday
will count. The winning team will be the team with the most points from the three score events, they will receive 300 points,
each team after drops three points.
29th March 1 day race
All 1 day and 2 day teams will race head
to head over 20 checkpoints in numeric order. Teams must visit all the checkpoints or risk having their final score cut in
half. Fastest team wins and scores 300 points, each team after drops three points.
21st June The Kilbroney Challenge
New for this year we have included this race, the guys at NTSR put on
such a good race last year it would be a shame not to include it. Again it's a 1 day event but ever so slightly
longer than our 1 day events, giving teams a chance to try something a little longer. Again fastest team wins over a numeric
order route. 300 points for the winning team, each team after drops three points.
4th October 1 day race
All 1 day and 2 day teams will race head to head over 20 checkpoints
in numeric order. Teams must visit all the checkpoints or risk having their final score cut in half. Fastest team wins and
scores 300 points, each team after drops three points.
4th-5th October 2 day race
For the 2 day events the Night Nav. on Saturday
