Then follows a Navigation Section traveling to the first overnight stop in Bendigo. Tuesday will involve an Observation Section from Bendigo to the Road Broadford circuit for Circuit Sprints, Auto-Tests and a Hillclimb Event. A Navigation Section will then take Competitors from Broadford to the Tuesday night stop over in Shepparton. For Wednesday, the DECA facility in Shepparton will host more Auto-Tests and Circuit Sprints followed by the Navigation Section to Wangaratta and overnight. Thursday will start with a short test at Wangaratta before the last Navigation Section to Wilby Park for the final competitive AutoTest, Go-Whoa and Circuit Sprint Events. From Wilby, the Competitors will transport to Deniliquin for the Banner Finish and Presentation Dinner for the Event Awards. Friday and Saturday is then involved with the Deni Ute Muster.
ENTRY The Event shall be open to: Drivers that are holders of a current Civil Licence issued by a State or Territory of the Commonwealth of Australia and an Australian Auto-Sport Alliance (AASA) Club Licence or similar. Navigators must also hold an AASA Club Licence or similar. Navigators do not have to be holders of a current Civil Licence. The AASA Club Licence Fee for both crew members is included in the Entry Fee. AASA Licence Applications are available for download here, www.aasa.com.au or a complete DENI UTE MUSTER RALLY entry kit is available for download here.
HOW MUCH Driver/Navigator Entry is $1385.00 including GST. Double Driver Entry is $1685.00 including GST, (see below). Fee includes 2 x AASA Club Licences.
DOUBLE DRIVER ENTRY A Double Driver Entry will allow for both the nominated ‘Driver’ and ‘Co-Driver’ to compete in all ‘driving sub-events’ scoring points towards the ‘Drivers and CoDriver’ Awards. For the navigation sub-events, the navigation score will be added to the nominated Drivers scores for the “Overall Crew Awards”. The Double Driver Entry is available to all Entrants and is an additional $300.00, ($1685.00 Inc GST).
VEHICLES ALLOWED Open to all manufacturer produced Utility type vehicles. The ‘Deni Ute Muster Rally’ follows in the traditions of Grand Touring Events by providing challenges for both the Drivers and Navigators skills to come to the fore.
HOW MANY Entry will be limited to 50 Crews (with a maximum of 10 Double Drivers), first in best-dressed etc… The Organisers cannot ‘save’ a spot for an entrant.
TYPE OF ROADS All sub-events will be conducted on bitumen roads and sealed venues. Some access roads to venues may be unsealed as will some navigation Via’s.
ACCOMMODATION The Organisers will provide an Accommodation Listing for the overnight stops in Horsham, Bendigo, Shepparton and Wangaratta, or you can arrange your own. You will of course need to arrange your own accomodation if staying for the DENI UTE MUSTER.
TYPE OF SUB-EVENTS Circuit Sprints and speed sub-events will combine both the horsepower and agility features of the competing cars with a balance of ‘wide open’ and ‘tightish’ layouts. Auto-Test events, pioneered by the Organisers, offer the ultimate test as car, driver and navigator, to work as one, accelerating, braking and negotiating the set course, through gates, against the stop watch.
MEALS Luncheon each day and morning and afternoon teas where applicable. There will be Evening Meal functions on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights plus the Presentation Dinner on Thursday night in Deniliquin for the entered Crew. Additional Crew Meals and Presentation Dinner places can be arranged with the Organisers.
NAVIGATION There will be a variety of navigation styles using the 250,000:1 Maps and RACV Maps with plotting the course by grid reference, reading off a compass, plotting by map reference, traveling the road as mapped and being observant. The presence of operative “GPS” in a competing vehicle is not permitted. The Maps provided by the Organisers for the 2010 Event are the only Maps permitted for the plotting of, or in the competing vehicle during, navigation sections. Navigational aids via Internet access utilising portable devices is strictly prohibited. Any such device in the competing vehicle must be sealed by Officials prior to the start of any Navigation Event. Any breach will incur instant exclusion from the Event. The Organisers will conduct a Navigation School prior to the first Navigation and follow up review notes each evening.
NAVIGATION EQUIPMENT Crews will be supplied with a ‘Rally Roamer’ to read 250,000:1. Crews will also require a decent magnifying glass, highlighter pens, a clipboard, (A4 or A3 Size), clutch pencils and erasers. A Compass will be handy but the clear plastic Rally Roamer has a compass included, remembering that all maps read north.

Licences must be presented at Credentials at Scrutiny or Sign-On as well as a Current Drivers Licence, (where applicable) and Vehicle Registration documents.
