Novice pre 81 concours

[Alan Cox]

Choosing what class to enter.....



This shows how the classes may be organised next year, depending on demand & feedback at the AGM.....


I would think most ( Spence / RS1800 not included ) would follow the green path, and enter novice pre 81.





Examples of some competing cars/owners from this year for comparison....

Intermediate = Hally, Gerrards Mex

Modified = Deepest's RS1800 rep.

Standard = Robbo's RS1800

Expert = Gerrard's RS1800 / Xpack, Ricky Ross' RS2000,



For more details, keep an eye out in rallye news

Thanks for that Alan.

Now just to decide which car to use

[Dave1800BDA]

great guide Alan, well done

hope all the classes are still there next season after your hard work

[graceloc]

Great job there Alan, that clears things up a lot.

[Deepest Blue]

Ever thought of going for the Log Book Co-ordinator's job Coxy

[RS2000CUSTOM]

Nice bit of clarity on the situation Mr Cox

Lets hope a few decide to come out to play

Agreed, however I think there should be a time stipulation on past Gold Cup winners, I haven't shown since winning Gold Cup in 2001 (I think) .

Then again, I aint got a car .................................................. ..yet

YOU GOT OWT LINED UP SON??

[RS2000CUSTOM]

Surely its the car that has the time limit not the owner ??????

Once a car wins novice it should not be allowed to show in Novice again for 5 years

It must move up a class

2 years is not enough !

2 Gold cups in 5 years for intermediate class should then require it to move up again

[Martin]

And looking at the flowchart if you have done Concours before the lowest level you can compete at is Intermediate

I have done concours and NEVER won before

Therefore I am still Novice !

It has taken me 8 years to get the car to this standard and who's to say it will win anything yet ?

well you were a track contestant as well

[Kevrs2000]

Having competed in Novice this year I might be tempted to do so again once i have a nice new car

[Alan Cox]

Just looking in rallye news (didn't have a copy at hand when I did the flowchart)

Currently.....

Novice is only open to cars that havent won any gold cup before,

Also also, if you have held a log book for the past 2 years you can't enter.

[RS2000CUSTOM]

Also also, if you have held a log book for the past 2 years you can't enter.

So you do Novice for 2 years in a row and then thats it - you got to move up ?

Unless you take 2 years off !

Thats not very enticing to get people to try Concours is it ?

You do year 1 and begin to learn

You do year 2 to find your feet

Year 3 you HAVE to move up whether you win Gold Cup or not ?

Methinks that may need a tweak
