The Classic Outback Trial

The Classic Outback Trial from August 30-September 5 has been welcomed by the organisers of Repco Rally Australia as a support event and it will be integrated into the overall activities of Rd 10 of the WRC during an exciting week of motorsport in north eastern NSW. The 3,500km Trial will start in the NSW town of Forbes on Sunday August 30 and travel to Coonabarabran and Casino, before finishing in Tweed Heads. Up to 20 per cent of the course will be competitive, with entrants spending two nights in most locations to minimise costs and travel for service crews. The entry fee for the Classic Outback Trial is $3,500.

This includes two tickets to the event's Welcome and Presentation functions, road books and service crew registration / instructions and all official vehicle signage. Vehicles eligible for the COT (subject to CAMS approval) will be Historic Rally Cars built prior to 1981, Classic Rally Cars built prior to 1983, Production Rally Cars built prior to 1996 and station wagon-type Recreational Four Wheel Drive vehicles made prior to 1990, including Turbo Diesel models. Four wheel drive and turbocharged cars are not eligible to compete. A touring event - the Outback Classic Tour - will be also run in association with the Outback Classic Trial. This will be open to any road registered vehicle, with no special preparation required and will cost $1,500 per vehicle.
