The Altis Rally Championship - Summer 2018
That's right, ladies and gentlemen: this summer we will be hosting a multi-stage, multi-race, rally championship event right here on the beautiful and sunny isle of Altis!
It's set to be a great series of races, with fantastic prizes, and a true test of skill, teamwork, and determination, as we challenge you to drive fast around some of Altis's most dangerous roads: expect sharp corners, plenty of dirt tracks, and perhaps the odd explosion or two!
What is the Altis Rally Championship?
The Altis Rally Championship is an organised series of races, on predetermined roads around Altis. There are multiple categories in each race that allow cars, and teams, to earn prizes and points. At the end of all the races, the points are counted up to calculate the Grand Champions, who win an even bigger prize!
Every team is allowed to enter two cars, each comprised of a driver and navigator. Cars earn points for themselves and their team, but any points earned by the team stay as team points only.
Three leaderboards will be made public before the first race event, one for timings, one for individual car points, and one for team points. It will be updated regularly through the races.
How are the Races Run?
The races are a time-trial event, run every Wednesday at 2030 BST (half an hour after restart) at different locations around Altis. The ARC will last 5 weeks.
Each race is made up of three stages, each run and timed separately, and the race winner is the car whose total time is the fastest. The general area of the race course will be announced in the days leading up to the race, but the exact route is only given to the team captain just before the start of each race, so it's important to pay attention! It will be up to the team captain to inform the drivers and navigators of the exact route.
In-between each stage will be a chance for team support crews to repair/refuel their vehicles as necessary, but this time will be limited! If you're not ready to go at the starting line, you may have to wait until all the other racers have been through for an available slot to open up again.
What are the Categories, Points, and Prizes?
Every race has five categories to compete in:
[*]Stage 1 Champions
[*]Stage 2 Champions
[*]Stage 3 Champions
[*]Team Champions
The championship has three overall categories:
[*]Team Grand Champions
[*]Speed Demons

If you're interested in helping out during the race, there are many jobs that you can do, such as helping get the right car to the start point on time, directing the rally cars on the tracks, time keeping, making sure racers aren't cheating, letting the ambulance know if/where a crash has taken place, etc.
So if you're interested in having front row seats to the racing action, and volunteering, please comment below!
