Regularity
events
Regularity
events are designed to test the driver's consitency in driving. th e
events are timed, usually 15-20 minutes. Each competitor nominates
a time they believe can be kept. Points are deducted for variance
in this time. The driver who has lost the least amount of points at
the end of the event is deemed the winner.
Competitors
wishing to enter a regularity event need to have a restricted (or
higher) licence. For CAMS sanctioned events a Level 2S license is
suff icient.
The car does not need to be log booked, but needs to meet the requirements
of the event organisers.
At
certain events, due to the popularity of regularity the field is split
in two, with generally fastest and slowest cars, however, on occasions
there is pre and post war classes.
These
events bring out cars that we may otherwise not see on the track.
Owners, or as many like to say - custodians wish to exercise their
rare and historic vehicle, but do not wish to put it throuh the strain
of racing.
We
say that most regularity competitors drive at 8-9 tenths.
Regularity
events are also seen as a good stepping stone into racing. It gives
inexperienced drivers track time and enables them to learn race craft
in a non-competitive environment.
