Hi All, This is advice regarding the National Capital Rally which is being held on Friday 28th Feb - Sunday 2nd March. This event is the first round of the Australian Rally Championship for 2014 and will be run in a similar fashion and area's as last year.. Friday 28th February is a single "Power Stage" being run at Bluetts, this is a form of "top 10 shootout" and will form part of the TV Coverage, etc. We will need to support this part of the event with a Start & Stop operator in the field along with a "Mini HQ" at Stromlo Forest Park. Saturday 1st March will have 4 stages (each run twice) in the Tidbinbilla, Laurel Camp, East West and Bluetts area's, and Sunday 2nd March will see 3 stages (each run twice) in Kowen plus Bluetts again at around lunchtime. HQ will be at the Rydges Lakeside (London Circuit Acton) and we will need 8 people rostered across each of Saturday & Sunday. The rally will be run as follows, noting that this year each of the stages has a naming sponsor hence the following 'names' and location info.... Friday - Power Stage and other activities at the "Pedders Suspension Rally Village" located in the Bluetts area off Uriarra & Coppins Crossing Roads. Saturday - "Coates 1" (Tidbinbilla) "Ricoh 1" (Oakey Creek) "Techworkz 1" (East West) "Pedders Suspension 1" (Bluetts) "Coates 2" (Tidbinbilla) "Ricoh 2" (Oakey Creek) "Techworkz 2" (East West) "Pedders Suspension 2" (Bluetts) Sunday - "Innate Motorsport 1" (Wamboin) "Qirx VMware 1" (River Rd) "Rydges Lakeside 1" (Millpost) "Pedders Suspension 3" (Bluetts) "Innate Motorsport 2" (Wamboin) "Qirx VMware 2" (River Rd) "Rydges Lakeside 2" (Millpost) Estimated meet times & finish times are as follows..... Friday Power Stage 0830 - 1230 Saturday Coates 0600 - 1630 Ricoh 0630 - 1700 Techworkz 0730 - 1800 Pedders Suspension 0930 - 1900 Sunday Innate Motorsport 0530 - 1545 Qirx VMware 0600 - 1615 Rydges Lakeside 0620 - 1630 Pedders Suspension 0800 - 1345 HQ will need to be manned Saturday between 0530 & 1900 with evening travellers net being done remotely, and Sunday between 0500 & 1630 with evening travellers net being done remotely. There will be an "after party" held at Rydges Lakeside on Sunday evening which you are encouraged to attend, details yet to be confirmed. You are invited to visit the Rally website at www.nationalcapitalrally.com.au to read more about it. This event will have Classic Rally cars, Australian Rally Championship cars, 4WD National Championship cars, and ACT/NSW state cars. Please DO NOT complete the Volunteers Application of the website as we will send you an email asking for the appropriate information and then add in the 'assignment' for you before passing to the Volunteer Coordinator.
So now is that time once again folks.... please hit your REPLY button (not the REPLY ALL !!) to let us know if you can assist, when you can assist, and if you have any preferences as to what job / location you would like to do (note that we cannot guarantee you get your preference, but we do try). As normal, please also let us know if you can't assist as that info is also noted so we don't keep harassing you.
cheers,
.... Phil Longworth VK1PL _______________________________________________ WICEN-Members mailing list WICEN-Members@crarc.ampr.org http://www.crarc.ampr.org/mailman/listinfo/wicen-members
