APPENDIX A – SCORING

A.1          SCOTTISH SPRINT CHAMPIONSHIP – SCORING SYSTEM AND AWARDS

A.1.1        QUALIFYING SCORE

Qualifying Scores will be determined by a competitor’s best eight results at Championship events. However, at the end of the Championship, if fewer than 12 events have been organised and run then the maximum number of each competitor’s results that count shall be reduced accordingly – eg, if only 11 events have been organised and run at the end of the Championship, then a competitor’s seven best scores will count etc. But if fewer than eight events have been organised and run at the end of the season, up to four of a competitor’s best scores will count.

Competitors must be classified as a Finisher at an event (in accordance with S9.5.5 of the current Motorsport UK Yearbook) to be eligible for point scoring from that event.

Unless stated otherwise, awards will be decided on the competitor’s QUALIFYING SCORE only, based on the betterment of class records for each circuit. The fastest competition run at each qualifying round shall count for championship points, irrespective of the number of competitive runs taken at individual events.

Points will be awarded following each event based on the following calculation:

Class Record x 100 /Competitor Best Time

Where no previous record exists for a class, the new record will be used as the basis of this calculation.

For events with a different class structure the Scottish Class Structure records will be used for scoring purposes.

The Sprint Champion will be the competitor with the highest QUALIFYING SCORE, irrespective of class, but not including Division D classes D1, D2 and D3.

A.1.2        TIE DECIDING

In the event of a tie for an award, the competitor with the best improvement on an existing class record at any round will be the winner. If this does not produce a result, the second best improvement will be considered, then the third and so on, until a result is achieved.

A.1.3        QUALIFYING FINISHERS

At the end of the season, all those registered competitors who have competed in any of the Championship rounds run will be eligible for inclusion in the final results. To be classed as a Qualifying Finisher, registered competitors must have competed in a minimum of four Championship Rounds. Awards will be restricted to Qualifying Finishers.

A.1.4        ‘TOP TEN’ CHAMPIONSHIP

In addition to the Overall Sprint Championship based on the championship scoring system, there will be a separate competition based on points awarded for the best times achieved by registered drivers during the Championship timed runs at each of the Championship rounds. Points will be awarded as follows: 15 points for fastest time of the day, 12 points for the second fastest, 10 for third and 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 for the remaining seven positions respectively. The Top Ten Competition winner will be the competitor who accrues the highest aggregate score on this basis from the same number of events as their Qualifying Score in the Overall Sprint Championship. In the event of a tie, the higher number of first places within the rounds used to calculate the Championship Qualifying Score will decide the winner. If this fails to resolve the tie, then the number of second places, and so on until the tie is resolved. In the event this still does not produce a clear winner dropped scores will then be used to resolve the tie.
