New To Rallying?

Let Australian Champion Navigator, Ross Runnalls,
show you the way.

Where to go and when? For those new to rallying we have
asked Ross Runnalls to take you for a drive. It’s not possible
to see all the action at once, so spectators have to choose
where they want to go, who they want to see and so on.

For those new to rallying, Ross has devised a timetable to show
you our sport, and give you a few relaxing breaks on the way.

The two Saturday points:
Point 1 & 3, and Point 2 & 4, are
about
20 minutes apart. The cars visit them twice.

On
Saturday, we are going to visit the Rally Start in Camp Street,
Ballarat, then go for coffee in Ballan, then visit
Point 2, then back
to Ballan for a quick lunch, then
Point 3. Afterwards, we go to the
Rally Hub at Ballarat Airport to see the mechanics working
frantically on the cars before they are put into “Parc Ferme”
(isolation) overnight.

On
Sunday, we watch the cars leaving the Rally Hub at Ballarat
Airport, then go to
Point 1, south of Ballarat in the Ross Creek
area. The cars visit this point twice, you can either take your own
lunch with you and stay in the same place, getting to know your
new friends in the forest; or go into Smythesdale for a bite at the
General Store.

Then it’s back to the same place, where
Point 1 now becomes Point 2

Come Spectating

1. Be prepared, weather-wise. Bring a hat, ground cover,
sun screen, and protection in case of rain or cold weather.
If food and drink are not available at spectator points make
sure that you bring your own.
2. Park your car sensibly so that it will not obstruct emergency
vehicles, competitors, service crews or other spectators. Obey
parking instructions given by signs or officials. It is advisable to
park your car facing the way out. This will make your exit easier.

3. Do not try to emulate rally drivers. If you give cause for
complaint it will reflect badly on the rally and the sport as a whole.
Drive carefully to and from spectator points and be ready to give
way to other traffic on narrow stretches of road.

4. If you have to take dogs or young children to spectator points,
make sure they are completely under your control and that they
do not get in the way of rally cars or mechanics or officials at work.

5. Do not light fires or smoke in the forests. Do not smoke near
a car that is being serviced or refuelled.

6. Keep clear of rally control points at all times from the timing
marker to the control. If control officials ask you to move, please help
them maintain event safety by doing so. Remember that they have a
difficult job to do as it is. If you want to see a control point in action,
then stand well back.

7. Rally cars can lose control and leave the road at any time.
Make sure that you stand behind the orange webbing within the
areas designated for viewing by this spectator guide or officials or
marshals. Do not stand in
No Go areas or outside the designated
viewing areas.

8. The instructions of spectator marshals must be obeyed.
They have the power to stop a stage until the spectator point is
controlled to their satisfaction.

9. Do not ignore this spectator guide and try and find your own
way around. The spectator route in this Guide has been surveyed
and is safe.

10. Take your litter home. It is handy to have bag or carton with
you. Please leave our countryside tidy.

11. At service or refuel points do not crowd mechanics when
they are working. Besides hindering them, you may get injured.
