The George Woods Rally – 20 February 2021

Posted on by SteveH

HRA members are invited to participate in the HRA George Woods Rally on 20th February 2021.

Start, Finish and Service are at the Powelltown Recreation Reserve. The field is limited to only 40 competitors, get your entry in early to avoid missing out.

To suit the new competitor and other novices, the same as the 2020 George Woods Rally, the event will be a Special Stage Rally Regularity, designed to ensure that maximum speeds achieved by crews are actively controlled. This allows essentially unmodified road cars to participate. This minimises the risk, allowing a crew to experience a real rally without going to the expense of roll-cage, special seats, harnesses and FHR.

This event is also the first round of the HRA Resto Country Spares Standard Car Class. Entries are open to all HRA Grade A, B and C crews providing they are driving a log-carded Standard Car as defined by the HRA.

More officials are required at the event, please volunteer to support the first HRA event for 2021. HRA members and friends are invited to see the event up close by offering to be a Road Closure Official. No past experience required.

For further information contact Glad Fish, Clerk of Course gladfish@netspace.net.au, 0410 148 058.

Supplementary Regulations will be available on www.hra.org.au. and HRA facebook in due course.
