The organisers of the Tarrawatta Stages have announced a major prize pool for competitors with over $5000 of prizes up for grabs at the newest event in the South Australian Rally Championship series.

Held over the ANZAC day long weekend, April 25-27th, the fully pace-noted event comprises of 11 special stages held over 126 kilometers of some of the states best rally roads.

In an innovative move 4WD & 2WD competitors will have equal prize-winning opportunity with a $500, $300 & $200 reward for the place-getters in each class respectively.

In another first, place-getters in a new ‘handicap’ class will also receive the same generous prize-structure giving all competitors an opportunity for their performances to be rewarded.

In addition, a prize-pool of key rally products will also be awarded as to assist the crew’s further participation in additional events in the series.

Interstate competitors looking to gain pace-note experience on the tricky SA stages will also be rewarded with the ‘challenge of champions’ trophy.

Entries are already flowing in with many high-profile ARC crews keen to drive some of the best rally roads in the state and use the event for test and development before the Rally of SA in August.

With the Bremen Valley stages not being used for many years ‘local knowledge’ is at minimum which is sure to create a more level playing field and provide a fresh challenge for both the SA and interstate crews.

Supp Regs are now available on-line at www.sarally.com.au. Entries close on April 18 with the event limited to 60 crews.
