Rules
Foremost
This cannot be emphasised enough, so here it is at the top of the
list. THIS IS NOT A RACE! All participants are advised to drive
safely and at all times obey the regulations for the country you are in, No
driving under the influence. It is up to you to ensure that you are fully up
to date with the driving requirements for the country in question. Some
countries require you to carry certain equipment. We will provide you with a
driving guide prior to commencement of the rally; however this may not be an
exhaustive list. Extra care is needed when driving in Europe. Not all
drivers adhere to the good practice we experience in the UK.
The Car
The car must cost less than £350. What you choose to spend on the car after
that to make it roadworthy & decorate it is up to you.
Insurance & M.O.T
The car must be in a roadworthy condition and must have a valid M.O.T
certificate. Just because the car has an M.O.T does not necessarily mean it
is fit for the road. It is up to you ensure that it is fit to take part. All
drivers must be covered by insurance. The above documents will be examined
before the start of the rally and any found not to be in order will
disqualify the team from taking part.
Driving License
All drivers from the UK must have a valid UK driving license. All other
drivers must ensure that their license covers them to drive in the countries
shown on the route. Driving licenses will be checked prior to the start of
the event. No team will be allowed to take part unless one of the members
has a valid license.
The Teams
Teams can consist of 2 to 4 people. Please note: cars invariably break down
and it may be you that requires a lift, so consider this when it comes to
team size.
Disposing of the car
If you intend on leaving your car at the end of the rally or in case of any
eventuality on route, you must dispose of the car properly. This means
either selling it, that's if it's worth anything or leaving it with a
breakers yard. On no account should the vehicle be left in any street, car
park or private land. If the organisers are approached regarding such a
situation, then we will not hesitate to pass on the details of the team and
team members to the authorities in question. |
