1. WELCOME from RALLY AUSTRALIA 1.1 A message from ARC & State Clerk of Course Welcome to Kennards Hire Rally Australia, the 13 th and final round of the 2017 FIA World Rally Championship. This will be the 26th Rally Australia and the 6th event located on the Coffs Coast of New South Wales. The Event is proud to have Kennards Hire continue as naming rights sponsorship of the 2017 Rally Australia. Their enthusiastic support, along with that from Destination NSW, the Coffs Harbour City Council, local communities and business owners and other generous sponsors, will ensure that Rally Australia retains its prominent position on the world rally stage. There has been a number of other dynamic changes for the 2017 event. Those crews who enter all three days of competition will have their chance to shine in the Kennards Hire Rally Australia world championship event with the introduction of a new competition named the Kennards Hire Cup and featuring $5000 prize money. More details contained in the following. And if one SSS wasn t enough, the itinerary sees the return of the spectator-friendly Super Special Stage at Raleigh, close to the Pacific Highway and designed to be easy and inexpensive to access. Both facilities promise wonderful fun filled afternoons for families and the rally enthusiasts alike. In terms of Special Stages, there s been a shift for the Friday Leg back to the forest areas north of Coffs Harbour. These Stages refocus the racing back into traditional rally roads, but don t despair, the famous and challenging Nambucca and Newry Stages will again feature on the second Leg. If you are keen to pitch your talent against the world s best, there are a range of options for ARC crews to enter the WRC using their local cars providing they meet FIA safety requirements. Interested competitors should contact Leanne Betts: Competitor Services Officer - email: competitors@rallyaustralia.com.au for more information. We look forward to welcoming you to the 2017 Kennards Hire Rally Australia, an event that we believe will provide you with close competition, challenging roads, great facilities and a quality of organisation second to none.
