In 2023, The Alpine Classic will start in the New South Wales town of Lithgow. It will take our crews through a series of challenging and fun sections on great roads with incredible scenery. The route taken on each day is shrouded in secrecy to keep competition interesting. Overnight our crews will be staying in the town of Orange, New South Wales with an included dinner being held on the Saturday evening. The following Sunday morning our crews will start again at Orange, working their way through a different challenging route with more fascinating country New South Wales scenery, with their afternoon finish at Lithgow.
Participating crews have the opportunity to choose a navigation level suitable to them with four navigation categories available:
* Social Tour - which although not a competition category (and technically its own separate social event) still provides a chance to get out on scenic roads in your car, and enjoy the company of fellow enthusiasts. Navigation is via simple route chart without the challenge of navigational tasks, ideal of first timers. No Motorsport Australia licence is required for this event.
* Tour Category - a competition that features simple route chart instructions and which is very popular with less experienced crews. It offers the thrill of real competition and boasting rights after the event without the challenge of map reading.
* Apprentice Category - a competition which is for those crews who like a challenge of map reading, finding the correct route using more comprehensive map interpretation and navigation skills with some helpful hints provided by the event organisers.
* Masters Category - the most challenging level of competition for those crews who revel in matching wits with the event organisers (there are no helpful hints for these crews).
There are a limited number of crew registrations available for this event so early entry is strongly recommended.
