The Great Race is designed for the enjoyment of the race participants and the spectators along the route. The race offers classic, vintage and antique car and rally enthusiasts an opportunity to engage in a competitive rally while enjoying their cars. The participants enjoy the camaraderie of automobile enthusiasts, develop their navigation and driving skills and compete for significant prize money in four competition categories. The terms “rally” and “race” are used interchangeably in this document.
The Great Race is a timed/navigation/controlled-speed/endurance rally. It is conducted on public roads with all specified speeds intended to be at or below the speed limits. The objective of the race is to match the precise time allowed for each section of the race by the rally master.
The teams are issued Course Instructions each morning. The emphasis is on precise driving, speed control and accurate navigation. It is not difficult; however, excellent scores require skill on the part of both the driver and navigator.
