All vehicles entering Scale-1 will be assessed before driving for their handicap points total. Using this checklist (which you can use to self-rate to help us speed the process on the day), your total scale points will be deducted after each course attempt on your scoresheet. For full details of how this works, see the rules (in particular, Section 9 – Scale-1 Rules; ITEM 8 – Handicap Points, and ITEM 9 – Handicap Point List, on page 13).

ITEM 8 – Handicap Points
8.1: A driver’s Course Score is tallied as per the standard Competition Rules. Scale handicap points are added in full at the END of a competitor’s course attempt. The Scale handicap points are applied in all scoring situations except a DNS.
8.2: If a handicap item falls off the rig during a course, the driver will have to reposition their rig to previous gate without penalty. Before driving again, the item will have to be remounted. Time will not be stopped during any of this process.
