This will continue down until all points have been allocated to NSW crews. * In the case of equal position in a two separate semi-finals (i.e. two NSW crews coming 4th in separate semis) the points will be divided between the two crews.
c) Only the top 3 results from these events will be counted towards the crews overall standings in each division.
d) The crew/s in each division with the highest number of points at the conclusion of the four events will be deemed as the successful team that will represent NSW at the Interstate Challenge (pending approval).
