| Competitive Safaris involve specially modified 4x4 vehicles tackling a specially laid out course at high speed. There are classes for a wide variety of vehicles from Standard Production Class through to purpose built specials with a variety of engine sizes. Each vehicle must complete a prescribed number of runs over the course during the day with the fastest cumulative time revealing the winner. All vehicles must comply with the Technical Regulations with safety features such as roll cages, harnesses and crash helmets mandatory. You will find full information of the sport in the following articles... |

A Competitive Safari requires drivers to make a number of timed attempts at an arduous cross-country course leaving individually at regular intervals. Competitors are given an actual time for each attempt based on an average speed of between 30 and 40 mph. The course will normally be between 3 and 15 miles in length and the number of attempts required will result in an event distance of between 20 and 150 miles.

Safari Seeding System In order to avoid vehicles and drivers of widely differing speed capabilities being randomly mixed on the start line, the AWDC has a seeding system to select those groups who are significantly faster than the average entrant. Competitors are seeded according to performance and can be upgraded or downgraded as necessary. Officials will compare individual run times of competitors when a request is made for a change of seeding. |

From the competitors' point of view they have a certain time allowance in which to complete the event and this dictates that they don't get stuck too often or for too long. |
