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.
