Rally Rules
The following general rules apply:
1. Write your team number in the space provided above.
2. Follow each instruction until the next one takes over.
3. Write the answers to questions asked in the spaces provided.
4. Unpaved (dirt or gravel) roads DO NOT EXIST for rally purposes.
5. Driveways, dead ends, entrances to parking lots, shopping centers and so forth also do not exist for rally purposes.
6. The terms "overpass" and "underpass" are from your point of view; that is, an overpass is where another road passes OVER your course of travel.
7. When you encounter a place where a turn is possible but there’s no instruction to do so, stay on the main road you’re on.
Terms
These terms will be found in your rally instructions; they simply permit standard abbreviations.
cm "course marker" Used only to reassure you that you are on course. A cm can be on either side of the road unless the instruction says differently. Cms are easily visible from the car. If the cm appears in quotation marks it means "sign that says" rather than the object itself. For example:
cm "Winslow Church" means "sign that says Winslow Church"
cm Winslow Church means the church itself
bear go in a direction of less than 90 degrees to your present direction of travel as, "bear left". (An alternative meaning is "large fierce animal" but we won't normally use that one on the rally).
acute a turn considerably more than 90 degrees to your present direction of travel.
Y intersection an intersection shaped like the letter "Y" where you are approaching the fork in the "Y" from the bottom leg. You can only bear right or left at a Y intersection.
T intersection an intersection shaped like the letter "T" where you are approaching from the bottom leg. At a T intersection you can only turn left or right.
Terms (continued):
cast means "change average speed to". Change your average speed to
the reading given and maintain that speed until further notice.
opportunity for rally purposes, an "opportunity" is a valid street or road. For example, "turn left at the third opportunity past cm Winslow Church" would mean to turn left at the third PAVED road past the Winslow Church. Driveways, dead ends, parking lot entrances and, of course, dirt or gravel roads are NOT opportunities.
Here we GO!
