Midget Register Star Car Award
The MG Midget Register Star Car Trophy is
awarded annually to the owner of the car which has been most active, and
performed most creditably in the widest possible selection of events and
meetings, throughout the preceding year. The award will be presented annually at
the Silverstone International Meeting. Open to all Sprites and Midgets
registered with the MG Midget Register, both standard and modified, provided the
shell conforms to the original design, or is modified only as allowed by certain
MGCC racing regulations. A valid road fund licence must be displayed and a
current MOT should be available if requested. (Not applicable to fully race
modified cars). Points are awarded as detailed below with the standings being
kept by the award secretary, however it is the entrants responsibility to ensure
that their car is registered and entered for the trophy, and to ensure all
events entered, together with their results, are sent to the secretary. Please
claim your points as soon as possible, any claims not filed within three months
of the meeting may not be considered and no claims will be considered after the
end of January of the following year. Throughout the year the current standings
will be published in the Midget Register notes within Safety Fast, with the
complete results in the Register Newsletter published in February.
Point scoring system
All MGCC organised events count for points ie: Race Meetings, High Speed Trails,
Auto-Cross, Concours d’elegance, Driving Tests, Trails, Rallies, Road Runs,
Social Events, Sprints and Hill Climbs.
At any competitive event requiring a competition licence, for example a race
meeting, any number of events can be entered each event counting for points.
Furthermore a car can be driven by more than one driver in such an event, and
each entry will count, the points being credited to the car not the drivers.
For each event entered started and finished:
3 points
1 extra point if the car is driven to the meeting
All social meetings, main club, centre or register organised earn points. In
addition if there are competitions within these meetings these too claim points
e.g. road run, gymkhana, pride of ownership, treasure hunt or concours
d’elegance.
For each event entered started and finished:
3 points
All local events, organised either by a centre or local natter group earn
points.
1 point for each event entered and started.
Members who are involved with an event as an official either as an event
organiser, team member or marshal can claim points if they use their Midget or
Sprite on the day.
3 points
Extra points in multiples of 2 will be awarded for the variety of types of event
competed in, ie:
One type of event = 0 points
Two types of event = 2 points
Three types of events = 4 points
Four types of event = 6 points
and so on to nine types of event = 16 points
