POINTS SYSTEM

Driver of the Year (DOTY) points are calculated according to the following
criteria:

  • Only South Australian cars and financial members will be included when the
    points for any
    event are calculated, however only financial members will be
    awarded points and therefore be
    eligible for the DOTY award.
  • Drivers will be given to the 31st of March in a given year to become
    financial.
    Once financial, points earned in the beginning of the year will
    then be back-dated and included.
    in the DOTY.
  • The DOTY will be calculated using each competitors 4 best events. If a competitor competes in all 5 events the lowest scoring event will not be counted.
  • Points will not be back dated if membership is paid after the 31st of
    March.
  • Assessment period to be within calendar year, Jan – Dec.
  • Points are awarded for each circuit race contested in SA.
  • Half points will be awarded for OUTRIGHT results in handicap races.
  • For local meetings where result sheets may not be available, an entry list
    with times/positions
    marked and signed by those competitors shall be
    submitted.

CLASS POINTS

Points are awarded based on a two stage formula.
Initial points are awarded based on outright position.

Outright Pos Points

2nd 999
3rd 998
4th 997
and so on 996

The outright points are then multiplied by a percentage based on the the finishing position within the class.
The event points are divided by 10 and reported in the table above.

No. of starters 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th
