Sporting
Car Trials
Sporting
Trials involve the use of a specialist 2 seater lightweight trials car,
you must carry a passenger and the sport is open to anyone who is over
16.
The trial sections in Sporting Trials are much more difficult than those
found in PCT's or Classic Trials, but the principal is the same, the further
you get up the course the less penalty points you will accumulate. The
winner being the competitor with the lowest aggregate score from all the
sections.
Sporting Trials are a very specialised sport and the learning curve is
a very long one, by introducing the sport at regional level will enable
the newer competitors to the sport to gain valuable experience and close
the gap to the top flight competitors in a shorter period of time. We
have 14 rounds on offer for the 2008 championship.
So as long as you are a member of a member club
of the ASWMC, you will be eligible to register for our championship.
