Car Trials
|
|
Car Trials (formally known as PCT's) are
without doubt one of the cheapest forms of motorsport and many of
todays top drivers more than likely started their careers trying
to drive up a muddy bank. To
compete a standard car is all that is needed and Car Trialss can be started
at the age of 15. |
| The aim
is to drive the car between markers over a fixed course, this will
often be a slippery field, you must achieve this without striking
the marker posts or stopping. Courses are generally marked out with
penalty points ranging from 12 to 0, if you make it through to the
end of the course you don't incur any penalties. Several tests will
be laid out and the overall winner is the competitor with the smallest
number of marks. |

|
|
Competitors
are split into classes, such as engine over driven wheels etc
and championship points are awarded on class position, not the
overall position. So whatever car you have, your in with a chance.
So
as long as you are a member of a member
club of the ASWMC, you will be eligible to register for our
championship.
