Thanks to everyone for entering. Due to the huge response this will be the biggest Stockcar Teams event there has been so far. We would have liked to run the event as a round robin but there is no way we can fit in that number of races! After discussions with the committee and Jen Tamanui, we have come up with the following format.
Saturdays Qualifying
3 groups of 8, 8 and 7
Groups randomly drawn by computer.
Each group will be run as a round robin.
Top 3 from each group to A Main
Next 2 from each group to B Main
Remainder of teams to C Main
In the event of a tie on points, a run off will be held to decide the winner, 2 cars from each team, over 4 laps.
We would like to have 7 teams in the B and C Mains, if we can come up with a fair way to place the 7th team in the B Main.
Sunday Finals
A Main
9 teams run as a round robin - top points scoring team wins the 2014 Advanced Sheetmetals Ltd NZ Stockcar Teams Champs
B Main
6 teams run as a round robin (possibly 7)
C Main
8 Teams run as a round robin (possibly 7)
Trophies will be presented to the top 3 teams in the A Main and the winners of the B Main
Certificates will be presented to the top 5 in the A Main, the top 3 in the B Main, and the top 3 in the C Main.
Certificates and new bodies for the best presented team.
Information for the day.
Pit space will be allocated with room for two of the normal fold out tables per team. Tables will be provided for South Island Teams. Please bring your own multi-boxes and extensions. There are plenty of power points.
Whilst one race is running, the next two teams will be called to the dummy grid and coin toss area. The team who wins the toss chooses grid position and driver platform, only the five team members are allowed on the platform.
Once a team has all its cars on track, the 2 minute rule applies. The second team has 2 minutes to get their cars on track before the race starts.
Theme Songs
Can you edit your teams information on the entries thread and add a theme song for your team, if we are able to organise this we will do. At the moment we are still working on the PA system.
