Points
Points were awarded to registered drivers for class placings achieved at each race on varying scales depending on the number of competitors in each class at each round.
- Where six or more cars attempted to qualify for a class, championship points were awarded to registered drivers on a 30–25–22–20–18–16–14–12–10–8 basis for the first ten finishers in that class in each race.
- Where four or five cars attempted to qualify for a class, championship points were awarded to registered drivers on a 25–20–16–12–10 basis for the first six finishers in the class in each race.
- Where one, two or three cars attempted to qualify for a class, championship points were awarded to registered drivers on a 20–14–10 basis for the first three finishers in the class in each race.
No points were awarded for outright race placings.
For Rounds 1 & 4, co-drivers, where nominated, were eligible to score points so long as they were registered for the Championship.

Famous quotes containing the word points:
“Only that which points the human spirit beyond its own limitations into what is universally human gives the individual strength superior to his own. Only in suprahuman demands which can hardly be fulfilled do human beings and peoples feel their true and sacred measure.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
“Wi’ joy unfeigned brothers and sisters meet,
An’ each for other’s weelfare kindly spiers:
The social hours, swift-winged, unnoticed fleet;
Each tells the uncos that he sees or hears;
The parents, partial, eye their hopeful years;
Anticipation forward points the view:”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
“A few ideas seem to be agreed upon. Help none but those who help themselves. Educate only at schools which provide in some form for industrial education. These two points should be insisted upon. Let the normal instruction be that men must earn their own living, and that by the labor of their hands as far as may be. This is the gospel of salvation for the colored man. Let the labor not be servile, but in manly occupations like that of the carpenter, the farmer, and the blacksmith.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
