The
Rama Road Rally is not a race as has been suggested by its title, it
is a Rally to support children’s education. It is not a speed
competition but a contest of knowledge. Drag racing or acceleration
contests are strictly forbidden, except in designated areas previously
set by the Rally organizers.
The Rama Road Rally
is not a test of physical endurance. Each leg of the Rally will run
between 4 and 9 hours.
Participants must
not compete with other drivers in any manner apart from designated racetracks.
The Rally is not to be used as an exhibition of speed or acceleration
or used for the purpose of making a speed record at any time.
Participants must
not race with other drivers. The prize packages are given for 4 factors,
which are as follows:
1. Time 40%: each
leg of the Rally has a specific period of time that the participants
must arrive in to qualify for the time portion of the points. Arriving
too quickly has more deductions than arriving late.
2. Distance 40%:
each leg of the Rally has a specific distance. The shorter the distance
the more points one receives.
3. Historical Documentation
10%: all participants must stop by at least one historical marker or
landmark during each leg of the Rally. Points awarded will be determined
by the uniqueness of the information and to what lengths the participants
went in order to gather the information.
4. Safety 10%: safe
driving will be encouraged at all times, in and out of the vehicle.
Conduct that results in damage to personal or private property, event
logistical support staff and equipment, hotels, restaurants and any
and all other item, will be deducted from the overall point standings
and the participant will be liable for all costs incurred.
5. Conduct and Sportsmanship:
throughout the Rally, additional points will be awarded for helping
other teams or people that may be in trouble or distress on or off the
course and in and out of the vehicle. Your conduct will be under constant
scrutiny.
