Main changes of note:
Brighton Speed Trial: With the loss of the Brighton Speed Trial event, the Antwerp Motor Union and the Con Mertens trophies will no longer be awarded.

Con Mertens Trophy for Mk VI Specials: This new award has now been introduced. It will be awarded to the same driver/car combination entered in both the BDC Scratch and BDC Handicap races as well as the BDC Sprint. All rounds count.
BDC events: 1st = 15 points, 2nd = 10 points, 3rd = 8 points, 4th = 6 points, 5th = 4 points, 6th = 2 points. 
FISCAR events: 1st = 6 points, 2nd = 3 points, 3rd = 1 point. Three scores count out of the four rounds available*.
* If either the BDC Scratch race, BDC Handicap race or the BDC Sprint is not held, the remaining two competitions will count.

Times Challenge Trophy
Awarded to the 1st Group A, B or C, with start time added, in the BDC Scratch race. The winning car will receive a 10-second penalty if they win the trophy the next time entered. This has been introduced to prevent one car dominating the race.
