2025 HRA Boisdale Rallysprint

Posted on by SteveH

Saturday 18 January, 2025

R1, 2025 HRA Autocross and Rallysprint Championship
R1, 2025 Pro Rally Standard Car Class Championship

The HRA is running its 4th Boisdale Rallysprint on the 18th of January.

This event is a great way to start the year. Being an S1 Rallysprint you don’t need a fully prepared car, just the basic safety gear of helmet fire extinguishers and safety triangles.

There will be 6 runs of a very busy 2 km course in a facility famous these days for being used for the power stage of the Gippsland Rally ARC event.

Entry fee is less than $200. Entries are limited to 30 so we can get more runs than otherwise.

Get those entries in to Liz Partington. Liz is also the person to contact if you can help out on the day with timing or on a radio point.

Clerk of the Course

    On behalf of the Historic Rally Association (HRA), we invite you to enter our 2024 Bagshot Rallysprint.

    The Event will be conducted at the Bendigo Car Club property at Bagshot (Bendigo Motorsport Complex and the property known as ‘Kings’), about 35 km North East of Bendigo (Vicroads Map 44 J3, Melway Map 609 F1, Google Maps link) on Saturday 26/10/2024.

    Our plan is to give Competitors 6 runs of the 3k circuit, which includes roads in the Bagshot Complex. There will be 3 timed runs run Anticlockwise and 3 timed runs Clockwise, with the best 2 times in each direction will count for your score. You will get a recce run in each direction.

    A Motorsport Australia Level 2S licence is all that is required, Roll Cages are not required (but recommended), so it is an ideal event for Standard Car Challenge competitors.

    As an HRA event, the event eligibility will be based on 2wd non turbo vehicles.

    There will only be 40 entries accepted, so don’t leave your entry until late, if you break your toy between entering and the event, you will get your entry fee back.

    If you are unable to enter, you are welcome to come up and give us a hand to run the event, we will need some officials to stand on corners and other jobs.

    Please email your entry to the Event Secretary.

    Looking forward to your entry,
    Andrew Paice, Liz Partington and the rest of the Bagshot Team.

    The new HRA Autocross and Rallysprint Championship begins on Saturday January 20!

    Posted on by SteveH

    The HRA’s latest championship kicks off at the 2024 Boisdale Rallysprint on Saturday January 20th.

    This new championship for 2024 will involve a combination of autocross or khanacross events with some rallysprints.

    We hope this will encourage members who might not want to run their cars in a full rally, with the risks and expense of those events, to get their cars out and for some fun in a more relaxed environment.

    Autocross and rallysprint events typically are a more relaxed and social affair as you wait for your next run and chat with other members. They also tend to be less taxing on the cars and your wallets.

    So, if you have any sort of car that should be seen out competing, now is the time to get it ready and get out there again.

    Autocross and Rallysprint Championship Rules are now available on the website under HRA Members > Rules and Regulations.

    You need to register for the new championship series – you can do that using the 2024 HRA Series Registration form.

    The first round of the new championship is the Bosidale Rallsprint on Saturday 20 January. Entries for Boisdale are open – regs and entry form on the 2024 Boisdale Rallysprint page.

    See you at Boisdale!
