<h1>GMSC & WDCC AVALON MOTOR SPORT 2022 EVENT CALENDAR</h1>
<p><strong>Please note.</strong> The aim will be to alternate autocross and khanacross series events irrespective of<br />
cancellations. If either event is cancelled, it will be carried over to the following month and this<br />
then will affect the sequence for the remainder of the year. If a cancellation is required, the event<br />
calendar will be updated to reflect the change in sequence. Please refer to Avalon Motorkhana or<br />
Geelong Motor Sport Club Facebook pages for event notifications and updates.</p>

<p>1.1.1 STANDARD CLASS: – This class is designed to encompass those vehicles of a totally standard nature except for those items which, for competitor safety or standard practice, get replaced through the life of a vehicle (i.e. suspension). By severely limited modifications allowed within class, the introduction level of motor sport can continue to flourish and encourage the recycling of otherwise unusable motorcars (providing the integrity of their safety is not in question).</p>
<p>1.1.2 MODIFIED CLASS: – This class is intended for the more serious weekend racer who still wants to use (or be able to use) his/her car on the road, though not necessarily so. This class permits weight reduction and further power modifications over the standard class. This class includes all vehicles not complying with standard class or special class specifications.</p>
<p>These class designations satisfy those outlined in the Motorsport Australia manual for – “Rally cars” and “Road registered cars.”</p>
<p>1.1.3 SPECIALS CLASS: – All vehicles not complying with the above two classes fall into this class.

<p>APPENDIX A</p>
<p>ALL VEHICLES MUST HAVE MUFFLER OR SPARK ARRESTORS</p>
<p>1) “Factory equipment/fitment” or “performance enhanced” were used in these rules do not allow the use of Factory Racing teams unless the same equipment was able to be ordered on a normal street car (not any up-spec enhanced versions) Performance equipment manufactured by sub-companies, be they in-house or contracted is also not considered “Factory” for the purpose of these rules. Therefore products by Weisner, H.D.T, C.D.T., H.S.V., Nismo, Qeordini, T.R.D., Cosworth, Lotus etc. are not allowed.<br />
The fact that overseas models of some cars have better features or options does not make them legal in this case as “Factory” items.</p>
<p>2) Motorsport is dangerous. It is expected that any modification or fabrication carried out will be done so in a sensible, responsible, safe and structurally sound manner. Any competitor found foul of this condition will be dealt with, and competition denied. The Directors decision on the day will be final.</p>
<p>3) It is suggested that any doubt about the legality of any vehicle changes be checked with the AUTOCROSS COMMITTEE well in advance of any event.</p>
<p>4) The committee reserves the right to re-classify a vehicle if it does not comply with the rules.</p>
<p>5) The rules and especially the spirit of the Avalon competition will also be upheld by the committee and hopefully the competitors.</p>

FAQ

<h1>FAQ</h1>
<p><strong>Q. What do the scrutineers look for when I bring my car to race?</strong></p>
<p>A.Â This can by answered on our Scrutineering page</p>
<p><strong>Q. What sort of racing do you do in GMSC?</strong></p>
<p>A. At the moment we run Autocross events at the Geelong Motor Sport Complex out at Avalon, Victoria.</p>
<p><strong>Q. What’s an Autocross?</strong></p>
<p>A. The definition by MA is as follows. Autocross is a type of event providing competition essentially at club level, and involving timed laps of an earth, grass, gravel or similar circuit by day or by night or both. In our events this involves each competitor doing a series of single timed laps of our circuit. We generally do about 6 individual laps depending on how smoothly things run during the day.</p>
<p><strong>Q. Do I need a special licence to drive in an Autocross?</strong></p>
<p>A. Yes, you need to have a MA 2S licence. This can be organised for you on the morning of an Autocross or prior through MA. You also need to be a member of a Motorsport Club. We can help you join GMSC on the day if you aren’t a member of another club.</p>
<p><strong>Q. What car can I drive in an Autocross?</strong></p>
<p>A. Pretty much anything with 4 wheels if it is safe. We have classes based on engine size and whether your vehicle is modified or not.</p>
<p><strong>Q. Does my car need anything modified on it to race?</strong></p>
<p>A. Quite often just a few things need to be done to prepare a road car for racing in one of our autocross events. Read the information on going through Scrutineering for details but a short list would be.</p>
<ul>
<li>Fit a fire extinguisher (bolted to car with a metal bracket)</li>
<li>Check that your seat belt and seat is in good condition and replace/repair as necessary</li>
<li>Have at least one return spring on the throttle shaft</li>
<li>Mud flaps need to be fitted to the driven wheels</li>
<li>Your car must have a exhaust muffler fitted</li>
<li>All fuel lines must be in excellent condition</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Q. Do I need a racing suit?</strong></p>
<p>A. No, just long pants and long sleeves in a non flammable material is fine.</p>
<p><strong>Q. What do I need to do when I’m racing in an Autocross event?</strong></p>
<p>A. There are a few main things you need to do on race day.</p>
<ol>
<li>Turn up and get your car ready for scrutineering</li>
<li>Line up you car and have it pass through scrutineering</li>
<li>See the event co-ordinator and enter the event. You will need your MA licence, Club membership, a filled in entry form and the entry fee. You will also get a number to be fitted to your car. If you have multiple entries for the one car, you will get multiple numbers; just make sure that when the car is racing the number displayed and the driver match.</li>
<li>Turn up for the Drivers’ Briefing. This will give you up-to-date information on how the event is to be run and any other information that may be useful.</li>
<li>After the drivers’ briefing there usually is a parade lap. So get in you car and join the queue to check out the track. This is a slow observation lap so passengers can be taken, however no racing (or even wheel spin) will be tolerated.</li>
<li>When your number is soon to be up (we prefer the cars to race in numerical order) grab your helmet and line up to take your lap.</li>
<li>Have fun!</li>
