Regulations for 2020
The Twin Spark Cup regulations are based on Motorsport Australia's (or the artist formerly known as CAMS) 3E Production Touring Cars category. Please consult the 2020 Motorsport Australia regulations for changes to 3E Production Touring Cars. For example regarding the inclusion of a mandatory rain light (Motorsport Australia Manual | Race | Circuit Race Standing Regulations | Section 6.9). Be sure to also consult the "Race - General" and "General Requirements for Cars and Drivers" documents.

The Twin Spark Cup regulations are carried over from 2019 with the following changes:

  • Slotted and/or dimpled rotors of the standard size will be permitted
  • ABS and vehicle stability control systems may be disabled or left enabled.

The pointscoring system remains unchanged from 2019.

  • There will be 120 points available per event to the first place-getters
  • The best four rounds contested will count towards a driver's final score
  • Points from a maximum of three rounds in any one state will be counted.

Please note that the Committee has decided that all VRA and all Alfa Racing rounds will be counted, so Round 7 will now be included if the event in November at Wakefield Park is confirmed.
