Jackson Orchards Sprint Series Round 4

Competitor Information coming August.

Format for previous seasons.

Rolling Starts: We have decided to continue with rolling starts this season, it’s a safe and simple way to get things started especially with the variety of vehicles in the different classes. 
Fast and Furious race: This season we are continuing with the Fast and Furious concept but we are changing to a timed race for all 4 rounds. This race will run for 20 minutes for the first three rounds and then 30 minutes at the final round. The safety car will still be deployed halfway through the race to bunch the field up before the safety car restart. 
Race 4 at the final round this season will be a 30-minute enduro race to add in an extra challenge for the last race of the season.  
Joker Card: We have decided to re-introduce the Joker Card for this season. What this means is at one round you can submit the Joker Card and receive double points for that round.
Driving Standards: The other change for this season is we are introducing a 3 strike policy, you will receive two warnings for driving misconduct and then the third warning will mean you’re out for the rest of the season. We want all competitors to enjoy their time on track and operate their vehicles in a safe manner at all times.

Series Sponsor

Jackson Orchards are proud that they are the Highlands Sprint Series sponsor in memory of Mark Jackson.

Having founded Jackson Orchards with his father Kevin Jackson, Marks family wanted to honour his legacy. Mark was a passionate club driver at Highlands, and motorsport was Marks greatest passion. When the opportunity arose for Jackson Orchards to sponsor the race series Mark was formerly involved in - it was a great fit.

Jackson Orchards is a family owned and operated orchard based in Cromwell. Central Otago is renowned for the rich, flavoursome stonefruits grown in the region. Cold crisp winters, hot dry summers, and a low annual rainfall combined with the rich mineral soils of a former gold-mining area provide the optimum conditions for producing fruit.

Jackson Orchards grow a variety of cherries, apricots, peaches, nectarines, plums, greengages, apples and pears during their season from November to April. Shop our fruit stall via the below link, or better yet pop in and say hi!
