Format

The best 10 results from the listed AlfaComp calendar of twenty events will count towards your overall score for the year. These are the only events that will count towards your AlfaComp score. This is to concentrate numbers of Alfa Romeos around these events.

AlfaComp will comprise four different types of events.

Regularity - This will be a four round series on the dates listed in the competition calendar at either Queensland Raceway or Lakeside. The goal is to have consistent lap time in a session.
Sprinting - This will be a four round series on the dates listed in the competition calendar at either Queensland Raceway or Lakeside. For these events, the fastest individual lap time achieved in the first 3 or 4 runs (depending on the specific event) on the day will win.
Supersprinting - This will be a four round series on the dates listed in the competition calendar at Morgan Park Raceway, Warwick. Each run will comprise 3 or 4 laps of one of the various Morgan Park circuit configurations from a standing start and the winner will have the fastest run time of the weekend (individual lap times don't count).
Hillclimbs - This will be a four round series on the dates listed in the competition calendar at either Mt Cotton hillclimb or Noosa Hillclimb. The best run for the event counts towards the results.

Supersprinting requires a CAMS Level 2S licence and competitors need to pre-register for the series with the Warwick and Districts Sporting Car Club. For more information contact Morgan Park Raceway or go to Morgan Park website and the CAMS website.
