Age Requirements?

[HomerJ]

Hi

Have checked the manual but am more confused about the Age Requirements for Rallying, motorkhanas and rallysprints etc

Can someone tell me what the ages requirements are;

I want to get my 12yo into the sport starting with the basics then naving and finally driving?

Start with motorkhanas, 12 years old.

Khanacross 14.

Level 2 speed licence you can run hillclimbs at 16 I think.

Rally co driver older than 12?

At Nabiac you can drive in a rallysprint at 16.

For regular special stage rallies, P plates needed, so 17 there.
I know there is special provision for L plate drivers to go in rallies, with approval from lots of people, but I feel 17 is early enough.

My 2 sons both started at 12 in mkhanas and could have easily at 16 driven in rallies but they both waited that extra year and started driving in a Gemini series car, nice and slow, when they got P s.

They have to have the responsibility for their own safety but also the co driver, that's a big thing.

I'm all for getting more young folk into rallying, just at least 17 at least for drivers. Now I can't get Nick & David out of the 4WD turbo cars, and they go faster than me, buggers.

The only thing to add.

Navigating is at 16 years for SS rallies.

Intro rally event (like Bays Stages intro - requires 2ns license) should be able to Nav at 14 years.
