Well it looks like we WILL have a WICEN Exercise before the end of the year with the third attempt to run the National Capital Rally (NatCap) for this year looking very positive.
This email is going out to the WICEN-MEMBERS list and also to the CRARC-News io group, sorry if you get this multiple times.
The Rally is scheduled for Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th of November.
All stages will be run in the Uriarra / Tidbinbilla area to the west and south west of Canberra and will introduce a different order to that we have had in the past.
Saturday Morning see's the running of 4 stages (2 stages each run twice) with SS1 & SS3 being the "Cottage 5 Ways" stage and SS2 & SS4 being the "Tidbinbilla" stage, and in the afternoon moving to 6 stages (3 stages each run twice) of SS5 & SS8 being the traditional "Hyles Block" stage, SS6 & SS9 being a revised "East West" stage, and SS7 & SS10 being a revised "Blue Range" stage.
Sunday see's the running of 6 stages (3 stages each run twice) and being new stages not run before. SS11 & SS14 is "
Caves Block" being held in the Pierces East area, SS12 & SS15 is "
Out of Nowhere" in the Pierces area, and SS13 & SS16 being a shortened "
Hyles Block" power stage.
At this stage, meet times and locations are being worked through and the following is subject to change with the Sunday sure to change....
