The Rules were posted on Facebook today.
First time I have actually seen them posted anywhere and no where does it say about having to race for it night 1
The Rees Shield- for Inter Provincial Stockcar teams
Rules
All teams must only use competitors that are registered to their track
Teams numbers on track are at the direction of the holder but must be no less than four and no more than six.
The holder must accept a minimum of two challenges per season- Should the Shield be lost in first challenge of the season the new holder must except at least one challenge before season end unless their home track has completed racing for the season. The holder can accept more than two challenges during a season and there is no maximum.
-The Holder may put shield on the line at other normal team events if they so desire but there is no expectation of this.
-All challenges to be raced at holders track unless holder decided to take the shield on tour to the challengers track or as above.
-Challenges would be on a rotation- e.g a track that has challenge and lost would not get another shot till other interested tracks had had a challenge.
- Racing rules would be as per SNZ rule book on teams racing
- Races are to be over 12 laps
- All races would be first car over the line
- Appearance/travel/prize money- would be between the challenger and the holder club/team to liaise.
