ALFAcomp Rules & Regulations

+ + These rules were updated on 21 February 2025 + + 

Only your 10 best results from the listed ALFAcomp calendar of twenty three (23) events. No other events are eligible for ALFAcomp points. This is to concentrate maximum numbers of Alfa Romeos around these events.

ALFAcomp is comprised of five (5) different types of events which is hoped will offer the opportunity for all interested members to compete on a relatively even footing whether in a Race or Road car.

  1. Regularity - Dates and venues as listed in the competition calendar. The goal is to have consistent lap times in a session. Regularity points are awarded as follows:
    1. The lap time for the slowest lap minus the lap time for the fastest lap will be the score for that run (e.g. slowest lap  68.53 seconds, fastest lap 67.44 seconds – score for that run equals 1.09 points)
    2. Timing to nearest 1/100 second
    3. The scores will be totalled and the competitor with the lowest total score wins the day.
    4. If you fail to complete a run, the score for that run will be 10 points
  2. Sprinting - Dates and venues as listed in the competition calendar. 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.
  3. Supersprinting - This will be a four (4) 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).
  4. Hillclimbs - This will be a two (2) round series on the dates listed in the competition calendar at Mt Cotton Hillclimb and Noosa Hillclimb. The best run for the event counts towards the results.
  5. Racing - This will be a three (3) round series at Raceway Queensland in conjunction with the Queensland Racing Drivers Championship. Your fastest run for the event will count towards your ALFAcomp pointscore.

Licences

  1.

  2. Motorsport Australia, AASA and RACERS all issue either Race or Speed licences for our respective event categories.
