Off Road Racing is one of the most spectacular and exciting forms of motorsport that you can watch. With spectacular jumps, massive roost and high speeds watching the Trophy Trucks, buggies and 4wds tear through the harsh terrain is an awesome sight to see! But as with all other motorsport, it is dangerous and in order to maintain safety for the competitors and the spectators the organizing clubs create designated spectator viewing areas.Information about spectator locations are available at event headquarters on race weekends. For other information you can also refer to the supplementary regulations which are available on each events page.  Please stick to the official spectator areas when watching the events of the Western Australian Off Road Racing Championship and follow the guidelines outlined below

SPECTATOR INSTRUCTIONS

1. Spectators are directed to view the Vehicles whilst standing within the markers indicating the limits of the controlled spectator area – spectating outside those areas indicated is prohibited.
2. Spectators must not stand in no go areas, and must at all times stand behind the bunting or barriers which mark the spectator area.
3. The instructions of the Spectator Marshals must be obeyed. The Chief Spectator Marshal has the power to inform the Clerk of the Course of potential spectator safety issues which may result in a section or the entire event being postponed until the spectator point is controlled to their satisfaction.
4. It is strongly recommended any spectator instructions are used to find your way around the event. There are risks such as meeting up with oncoming vehicles and many roads in areas used by the event may have wash-aways, collapsed bridges, etc. which are potentially hazardous for the driver. The recommended spectator routes have been reviewed by event organizers and are considered the most appropriate routes.

DO’S AND DONT’S OF SPECTATING

Vehicles under competition conditions can lose control and leave the defined track at any time. Do not stand in any areas which are not authorised or which are contrary to the advice of the organizers and officials/marshals or where you feel may be unsafe.

Be prepared. Weather wise, bring hats, ground cover, sun screen and protection in case of rain or cold weather. Food and drink outlets may be provided at the spectator point (refer spectator instructions), but if not, ensure you have some of your own food and drinks available.

Park your car sensibly so that it will not obstruct emergency vehicles, competitors, other spectators. In all cases obey parking instructions given by supervising officials. It is usually best to park your car facing the way out.

Do not try to emulate Off Road drivers. Remember that if you give cause for complaint it will reflect badly on the event and the sport as a whole. Drive carefully both to and from spectator viewing areas, and be ready to give way if necessary on narrow stretches of road.

Please do not take dogs or young children to spectator points. If you have to, make sure they are completely under your control and please make sure that animals and children do not get in the way of competing cars or mechanics or officials when they are working.

Do not light fires or smoke in the forests. Do not smoke near a car that is being serviced or refuelled.

Take your entire litter home with you – it is handy to have a bag or carton in your boot. We rely on the land owners to allow us to compete on their land, assist us in ensuring we are welcomed back for future events.
