Follow the progress of this exciting 4098.2-mile contest, and watch the drivers compete in special driving skill contests during city stop-overs. Here are the details. § in of the major international sporting events of 1961 starts Sunday in Montreal. It's the British Columbia Inter- national Trade Fair Car Rally--the longest, most gruelling test of top performance ever held in the Western Hemisphere. * The rally has been organized by the B.C.L.T.F. and is sponsored by the Shell Oil Company of Canada, Limited. Famous drivers 212 top drivers and navigators from five countries will compete. The celebrated names include Hans Ingier and Nils Hagen of Norway, who have competed in over 30 international rallies, including six Monte Carlo Rallies, and Homer Trotter of Water- town, New York, two time winner of the Canadian International Winter Rally. Seven ladies' teams are also entered. The drivers and their navigators will negotiate an arduous 4098.2 mile route from Montreal to Vancouver. Their skill will be put to the test over some of the world's toughest terrain, including rugged mountains and rough country roads. They will also compete in a series of driv- ing contests in Mosport Park, Winnipeg, Regina, Edmonton, and Vancouver (see the map above for dates, and the box at the right for details). - Rally rules Procedure will be largely-the same as in the other great International rallies. Here are a few details for readers who are newcomers to this growing and fascinating sport: eo Arallyisnotarace.Itisacontest of skilland timing {or drivers and navigators, and a test of the réliability and endurance of their cars. *The longest car rallies in the world are the annual Tour d'Europe"(5500 miles), Africa's annual Algiers-to-Capetown Rally (7800 miles), and -- longest and most harrowing of all--the annual 10,000-mile trial around the perimeter of Australia. In the Australian event, crocodiles, and kangaroos often unsettle the drivers. Occasionally, aborigines shoot arrows at them. And sometimes the road ends and the route goes through a desert or up a rocky creek bed. e The winner is the car that gets the fewest penalty points. e Penalty points are handed out for damage to the car, for mechanical failure, for unsafe conduct, for violation of traffic laws, and for failing to arrive exactly on schedule at numerous control stations along the route. e Timing is ferociously precise. Cars are penalized a: point for every minute they're off schedule--early or late. NoTe: Officials at every check point will make sure their clocks are right by getting time signals via radio from the Dominion Observatory in Ottawa. o Other penalties: for failing to report at controls; for approaching controls from the wrong direction (i.e. getting lost). o Exact details of the route are not revealed to drivers until they arrive at the starting point. There they receive special Shell maps to guide them along some sections of the route--and nothing but written instructions to help them navigate the other sections. e Drivers are told the locations of some control stations at the start of the rally. Other. control stations pop up at unexpected points along the route. e Changes of flat tires are the only repairs allowed during overnight stops. To enforce this, officials impound all cars every night. All other servicing and repairs must be made in the daytime while the rally is in progress, when lost time will cost points. Early results The rally is divided into five 1-day and 2-day sections. Each section will be a rally-within- a-rally, having its own winners. Results will be reported with astonishing speed. IBM punch clocks and punch cards will compute the scores, producing pro- visional results within a half-hour after the t1f you should see a stalled or disabled rally car don't offer to push. It's against the rules. Cars may be pushed by the driver and navigator only. last competitor completes each section--and official results within 24 hours of the end of the rally. Over $5,000 in cash The B.C.I.T.F. will award 71 trophies and over $5,000 in cash to outstanding drivers. Shell will supply these awards. Prizes will be awarded to cars in each category and class, and for each section of the route as well as for the entire rally. There will also be a Coupe des Dames for the ladies and cash awards from manu- facturers. All cars to get top performance from Shell 1] Shell will provide the gas and oil for all rally cars. The cars will ask a lot from Shell gasolines, And it will give them these nine ingredients for top performance: #1 is TCP} for power, mileage, and longer plug-life. Super Shell's improved formula contains an aviation grade of this world- patented additive. It gives you up to 15 per cent more power; up to 17 extra miles per tankful; and can make spark plugs last up to twice as long. H2 is "'cat-cracked" gasoline for power with a purr. This anti-knock ingredient has actually been cracked under 900-degree heat. Its heavier molecules have been shattered into lighter, livelier ones that make your engine purr with power the moment you put your foot down. #3 contains heavy alkanes for power and economy at all speeds. Another high-octane, anti-knock ingredient. Heavy alkanes give you plenty of knock-free power whether you're driving slowly, accelerating, or cruis- ing on a super highway. g His anti-knock mix for extra resistance to knocks. One teaspoon per gallon can boost anti-knock rating by seven points, HS is butane for quick starts. This highly volatile ingredient fires your engine in a hurry in winter. It also happens to have out- standing anti-knock value in warm weather. So it helps smooth out your car's perform- ance all year round. #6 is a mixture of pentanes for fast warm-ups. This quick-firing ingredient speeds up the delivery of heat to your engine--gives you top performance in a huiry. ' K7 is an "anti-icer"' your car needs even when the temperature is 45°. Why add an anti-icer at forty-five degrees? Because, even then, frost can form in your carburetor just as it does in your refrigerator. It can choke your engine dead. {Shell's Trade Mark for this unique gasoline additive developed by Shell Research, Patented in 1955.
