Our Scoring System

As the Combined Touring Cars category has such a diverse range of cars competing against each other - including 4 cylinders cars, Saloon cars, performance AWDs and V8s, we have devised a class-based point score system that rewards consistency, promotes fairness between classes and gives all competitors the opportunity to do well in the NSW State Championship.
 

Within CTC there are 5 classes:

• High Performance

• Performance

• Sports Touring

• Small Touring

• Saloon Cars

Cars are awarded points depending on their placing within their class at the completion of each race and also on how many cars are competing in that class. So that a car that achieves a first place in a race with 4 or more competitors in the class will receive more points than another driver who gets first place when there are only one or two cars in the class.

The CTC NSW State Championship consists of six State Championship rounds and is awarded to the top three drivers, with the highest total of points at the end of the year, regardless of their class.

The CTC NSW Club Championship consists of the six State rounds as well as other Multi-club events (such as Day/Night and Endurance races) and includes a drop-your-worst-round rule. The Club Championship rewards the top three drivers in each class as well as the top three overall drivers.

Since this system was implemented in 2004, every year both the State and Club Championships were not decided until the final race of the last round of the year, making for some very exciting championship battles!
