2010 SON OF TRIALS 'PLUS!'

The Nissan Patrol 4WD Club of NSW & ACT Inc is proud to announce the 2010 Son of Trials 'PLUS!' competition being held on the 6th & 7th November 2010 at River Island Nature Retreat (current location of the very famous Son of Trials).

The idea behind the Son of Trials 'PLUS!' is to provide competitors with MORE FUN, NEW TRACKS & ADDED CHALLENGES.

It's just like Son of Trials with a little bit more!!


FEES
Day entry - $30 per person
Weekend entry - $50 per person (includes camping fees)
Competition fee - $30 per driver
Children under 16 yrs of age have free entry.

With a huge number of competitors expected at this years exciting event, a Pre-Paid Entry is the BEST way to secure your place in the 2010 Son of Trials 'PLUS!'. Simply visit the Nissan Patrol 4WD Club website at www.nissanpatrolclub.org (http://www.nissanpatrolclub.org) and download and fill in the entry form then return it the Nissan Patrol 4WD Club to confirm your spot (details are on the form). A receipt will be issued, and we will have your door numbers ready for pick-up at the gate when you arrive at River Island.


GROUP ENTRY
Would you like to get together with family or friends and enter as a group?
New to the 2010 Son of Trials 'PLUS!' is Group Entry. It will allow you and your family/friends to travel around the Son of Trials 'PLUS!' event from track to track as one group, enabling you to see each other compete, take photos of each other, lots of slapping on the back or laughing at silly mistakes! If you intend on having more than one (1) Driver per vehicle PLEASE nominate to enter under a Group Entry. You can have an unlimited number of nominated Drivers per vehicle.

To qualify as a group, you have to:

a) Complete the Competitor Prepay Entry Forms and send them all in together. Door numbers will then be allocated to the Group Members who have sent their forms together in one envelope - if your form is late, you will be allocated separate door numbers, and you will miss out on being part of the group

b) Have all your camping and competition fees paid in full.


DID I HEAR YOU SAY INTER-CLUB COMPETITION?
If you are in a 4WD Club, you can use the Son of Trials 'PLUS!' event as an inter-club competition. Find out once and for all who's the best driver in your club! We can even accommodate any announcements you wish to make on behalf of your club (e.g. Best Driver etc). Better still, if you wish to have a trophy presented to the winner at the time the announcements are made on Sunday, please bring your trophy along. Please note that Inter-club competition announcements will be announced only if you request this and trophies will only be presented if you provide them. All other prizes and trophies for the competition for overall winners will be supplied by the Nissan Club.


SCORING
With 8 tracks to be driven, we have decided to make things interesting by giving you a total score based on your best times for 6 tracks only (this is a timed event, and it means your 2 worst scores will not be included in your final overall total). Note: to qualify for this scoring method, you have to complete all 8 tracks.


FOOD
Breakfast and lunch will be available for purchase at the event.


ALL ENTRY FORMS MUST BE RECEIVED BY US NO LATER THAN FRIDAY 29TH OCTOBER 2010

Kind regards,

VEHICLE CLASSES (3)

1) Standard Class - which means just that! Oh OK, we'll let you have a bullbar, towbar, driving lights and that sort of stuff, but you must have original tyres, or at least tyres of the original size.
Tyres: limited to a maximum size of 31 inches.
Engines: we don't care what powers your vehicle as long as it's legal, roadworthy, and makes your four wheels go around and around!
Diff locks: are definitely NOT allowed. If you have them, make sure we have some way of verifying that you cannot use them during the event. We consider their use to be cheating and will result in automatic disqualification (and a good spanking, so there!)
Suspension: must remain completely unmodified. Body lifts are NOT permitted.


2) Touring Class - for the slightly modified vehicles. General Touring style modifications allowed.
