These days there are 2 Tri-series. 1 at National level and 1 that sort of slots in between Club and State. The NSW Tri-series started back in the early/mid 1980s before there was a NSW Championship. It began as a three race series at the three club tracks in NSW at the time, Colo, Dondingalong (Kempsey), and Raymond Terrace. Each round was organised by the club that ran each circuit,i.e. SORRA (or SRVA as it was known then), KMORC and Newcastle Motor Racing Club. So essentially it was a short course race series run over 3 rounds which also scored points for each club. The Tri-series was so successful it formed the basis for the NSW Off Road Championship which began in 1989. The Tri-series is today run at Dondingalong, Milbrodale and Nabiac and whilst overshadowed by the NSW Championship is a good stepping stone from club level to state level. These days Maurie Fuller looks after the Tri-series I think.
confusion plus!!!! Is this a SORRA club round or not??? Im in two minds on whether to attend Milbrodale or not. I know there's a tri series and i know its a state round, but as a SORRA club member, and a newbie at that, what am i racing for??? Do i concerntrate on competeing against our club members i do i try to run over everything in sight????? Am i racing for points for the club or for myself? Help plz Dates and days for scutineering dont match up!
Yes it is a SORRA club round, so points will be up for grabs for the SORRA club championship.
I believe you will automatically score points for the tri-series which are also used to determin the winning club, but unless you race one of the other rounds, it won't really get you anywhere individually in that series. ( But sometime you can be lucky)
Just to confuse you more, I believe it is also the second round of the NSW long coarse championship, the first being Wittitrin (however it is spelt) and the third Warialda.
It's a great event to race at and a perfect stepping stone to the bigger races.
Scrutineering for Sydney is always held on the Monday prior to the race, but you can choose to be scrutineered at the track I think at a sparrows fart Sat morn.

Dad was telling me about your "maybe new car" Kelvin... Ex Corky McMillin car... AWESOME!!! Preeeeetttyy sure I want to do an insurance job on our car and get a nice pretty car from the states. That Race Dezert website is dangerous.
Just noticed for those interested, that you can vote at milbrodale school if required?
you can, but from all the notices going out from Milbrodale, the better option is to postal vote before you go, as the school will already be at capacity without additional out-of-towners
ELECTION VOTING
To avoid long delays at Milbrodale's voting centre please organise to vote prior to race weekend (21st-22nd August) as Milbrodale only has a small voting centre, which is normally very busy. Early voting has commenced for voters unable to vote on election day. For more information on how to register an early vote please go to http://www.aec.gov.au/About_AEC/Media_releases/e2010/02-08.htm or alternatively apply for a postal vote at any Australian Post Outlet, on the AEC Website or click here for a PDF application form.
