Supplementary Regulations

Hi to all competitors who have been sitting around playing Dirt 2.0, working on their cars, watching re-runs of Colin McRae in-car, or however you have been spending your isolation.  That is all pretty frustrating because there is nothing like the real thing.  So we hope you all escaped the virus and its knock on effects and are fit, well and healthy and looking forward to a sprint in the forest.  We are bringing back the relaxed and rewarding format A to B timing format we used last year to give you the best experience we can in a forest near you.

We have been working with Motorsport Australia, HQPlantations, and the Benarkin School community to enable us to conduct an event in a safe and hygienic manner, within the constraints of this environment.  We are working with the information available from the Queensland Government as to applicable restrictions likely to be in place in August, but as we all know these are changeable.  Should something change we will communicate with entrants at the time.  So we ask you to read the Supplementary Regulations carefully and be familiar with the Motorsport Australia ‘Return to Race’ strategy.

We are all now becoming familiar with social distancing, hygiene and contact tracing measures in everyday life, and we will be no different.  As we write there will most likely be gathering limits we need to adhere to which will limit attendees.  We will employ zero contact models for timing, and all scrutineering and documentation will be electronic only.  We can also offer an optional reconnaissance the weekend before to help us ‘Come, Rally and Leave’ with minimal gathering.  We will also need to ensure we have contact details of all attending and that we check their health on the day prior to admission.  We endeavour to make this as simple as we can, so your cooperation will be greatly appreciated.

But the good news is we have an event.  Entries are capped at 30 so get in quick.  Entries are open now

Manumbar Rally will be Round 2 of the Qld Rally Championship

A word from the Clerk of Course – Craig Porter

Preparations have begun on road selection for the Queensland Rally Championship Round 1 which will be based out of the Manumbar Campdraft Grounds and held on Saturday the 31st October 2020.

We have found another stage in the Mt Stanley region used many many years ago which could give us another stage of some 20kms in distance with the road in excellent condition.

I will be looking for four stage commanders and a great number of road block officials. My thinking at the moment is to run four stages twice on the day.

The Manumbar Campdraft Association will cater in a similar fashion to previous years with camping available on the grounds.

More will appear on social media as our plans unfold.
