The South Australian Festival State Cup Series 2013


The generosity of our series sponsors allows lots of great additional prizes at the end of the year, from sets of tyres, engines, shirts, stickers, caps and lots of other great merchandise.  A driver must have entered and raced in at least 3 rounds of the series and paid for a ticket and be present at the presentation dinner to be eligible for these prizes. 


#1 The Festival State Cup will consist of a single 5 round series in 2013. The series scoring system will be 50 points for 1st  , 48 points for 2nd, 47 points for 3rd  etc  with one round dropped by each driver, making 4 out of the 5 rounds to count toward the final result. 

#2
The points scoring system of  0, 2, 3 etc applies for 4 heats at each round.  The number of  laps to be determined by the individual lap distance of the track used at each round, with all 4 heats at a round being run over the same distance.

Gridding is by draw , reverse draw for heats one and two, then lowest accumulated points to the front for heat 3 , and heat 4 is gridded  on the finishing order of heat 3.
 ( like a championship pre-final result allocates grids for the final ) 

Where points are tied, competitors will be separated using Chapter 16, rule 16.14  in the 2011 rulebook.


The championship points system will be used giving non-finishers in any heat a position in order of laps completed.

#3   Sportsman SA will be run under state based rules and has the following eligibilty rules imposed.  Any senior driver may compete in the class at any round,  however the top 3 placegetters in this class from the previous year's FSC series  will be ineligible to score points in the series itself,  thus only gaining any awards won on the day of competition.  The same will apply to any open, closed or national championship winners from any class,  ie all blue, black, green or red plate holders will be ineligible to gain points towards the series awards in this class.
