Any structure erected within the V8 Supercar Paddock area must be freestanding i.e. no pegs or similar items may be used and nothing may be inserted into the bitumen surface of this area.

turned back by security. Attention to the space problem by all is a MUST. NOTE: The area will be secured each night and the access gates manned. Paddock Prohibition: Competitors are reminded that they are responsible for notifying sponsors and other associated persons or groups, that corporate type hospitality arrangements are prohibited from the paddock area.

This policy has been well publicised and is printed in full on pages 2-25 to 2-32 of the 2003 CAMS Manual
of Motor Sport. A significant part of the CAMS obligation is to actually test competitors for the presence of prohibited substances in their body and testing may be carried out at any event which is held under a CAMS permit. Full screen drug testing may only be undertaken by the Australian Sports Drug Agency (ASDA) which is a government funded organisation, and is a part of the Australian Sports Commission. It will also analyise the results on behalf of CAMS. The CAMS Drugs in Sport Policy also provides for competitors, with aliments or chronic medical conditions
for which medication (which may otherwise be prohibited under the Policy) is necessary in order for the competitor to sustain a reasonable quality of life, to request a dispensation to use that medication whilst competing in motor sport. This is commonly referred to as a “therapeutic dispensation”. It will be necessary for all competitors who are being prescribed any form of medications for asthma to have their doctor complete a CAMS form (available on the CAMS website) and a statement and for those to be issued to CAMS.
When a full screen drug test is chosen, for any competitor whose name appears on the register it will be assumed that this class of drug does exist in their sample. Should a competitor not appear on the list of registered names, then the tests will be undertaken and if they prove positive, will be prosecuted in accordance with the Drugs in Sport Policy Therefore, it is important that each competitor considers their situation carefully and informs CAMS if they have a medical condition, for which treatment of that condition requires any prohibited being prescribed by
a doctor. In the meantime, please be aware that active full screen drug testing may be carried out at any event which is held under the auspices of a CAMS permit. This will involve the taking of a urine sample from the competitor, which will occur at the completion of an event. If, as a competitor, you are chosen, the following general procedure will be followed: • Should a competitor be chosen for full screen drug testing, they will be notified as soon as possible after the event (e.g. when they arrive at the parc ferme or presentation area etc) and will be introduced to a
ASDA representative, who will act as a chaperone for the selected driver and they will be required to be all times in sight of the competitor between the finish of the event and the time the sample is given. • During the period the competitor is under the observation of the chaperone, it is recommended that only those substances which will be approved by ASDA may be consumed. In reality this will be a selection of drinks which will not further pollute the competitors body with unwanted substances.
• Following any official functions (presentations, media conferences etc.) the chaperone will generally accompany the competitor to a drug control facility where the chaperone will wait with the competitor until a sample is given. Naturally, it may not be possible to offer the sample immediately. A fair amount of latitude is offered to the mobility of the competitor at this time. For instance attending a team debriefing session etc is foreseen. The main stipulation is that any where the competitors goes, so does
the chaperone! • The chaperone is required to evidence the actual offering of the sample. • The samples will then be divided in to specially designed sample bottles, and sealed by the competitor in the presence of the ASDA Drug Control Officer. • Once the sample is given, the competitor is free to resume normal post event activity. As mentioned above, further information regarding the CAMS Drugs in Sport Policy can be found on pages 2-25 to 2-32 of the 2003 CAMS Manual of Motor Sport.
We would be obliged if you could inform your competitors of the above information as soon as possible. Any competitors wishing to further discuss the matter may wish to contact Bruce Keys, (03) 9593 7778 or CAMS Chief Medical Assessor, Dr Geoff Wigley. Yours sincerely Bruce Keys Manager - Safety and Medical Services

Paddock Prohibition: Competitors are reminded that they are responsible for notifying sponsors and other associated persons or groups, that corporate type hospitality arrangements are prohibited from the paddock area.

This policy has been well publicised and is printed in full on pages 2-25 to 2-32 of the 2003 CAMS Manual
of Motor Sport. A significant part of the CAMS obligation is to actually test competitors for the presence of prohibited substances in their body and testing may be carried out at any event which is held under a CAMS permit. Full screen drug testing may only be undertaken by the Australian Sports Drug Agency (ASDA) which is a government funded organisation, and is a part of the Australian Sports Commission. It will also analyise the results on behalf of CAMS. The CAMS Drugs in Sport Policy also provides for competitors, with aliments or chronic medical conditions
for which medication (which may otherwise be prohibited under the Policy) is necessary in order for the competitor to sustain a reasonable quality of life, to request a dispensation to use that medication whilst competing in motor sport. This is commonly referred to as a “therapeutic dispensation”. It will be necessary for all competitors who are being prescribed any form of medications for asthma to have their doctor complete a CAMS form (available on the CAMS website) and a statement and for those to be issued to CAMS.
When a full screen drug test is chosen, for any competitor whose name appears on the register it will be assumed that this class of drug does exist in their sample. Should a competitor not appear on the list of registered names, then the tests will be undertaken and if they prove positive, will be prosecuted in accordance with the Drugs in Sport Policy Therefore, it is important that each competitor considers their situation carefully and informs CAMS if they have a medical condition, for which treatment of that condition requires any prohibited being prescribed by
a doctor. In the meantime, please be aware that active full screen drug testing may be carried out at any event which is held under the auspices of a CAMS permit. This will involve the taking of a urine sample from the competitor, which will occur at the completion of an event. If, as a competitor, you are chosen, the following general procedure will be followed: • Should a competitor be chosen for full screen drug testing, they will be notified as soon as possible after the event (e.g. when they arrive at the parc ferme or presentation area etc) and will be introduced to a
ASDA representative, who will act as a chaperone for the selected driver and they will be required to be all times in sight of the competitor between the finish of the event and the time the sample is given. • During the period the competitor is under the observation of the chaperone, it is recommended that only those substances which will be approved by ASDA may be consumed. In reality this will be a selection of drinks which will not further pollute the competitors body with unwanted substances.
• Following any official functions (presentations, media conferences etc.) the chaperone will generally accompany the competitor to a drug control facility where the chaperone will wait with the competitor until a sample is given. Naturally, it may not be possible to offer the sample immediately. A fair amount of latitude is offered to the mobility of the competitor at this time. For instance attending a team debriefing session etc is foreseen. The main stipulation is that any where the competitors goes, so does
the chaperone! • The chaperone is required to evidence the actual offering of the sample. • The samples will then be divided in to specially designed sample bottles, and sealed by the competitor in the presence of the ASDA Drug Control Officer. • Once the sample is given, the competitor is free to resume normal post event activity. As mentioned above, further information regarding the CAMS Drugs in Sport Policy can be found on pages 2-25 to 2-32 of the 2003 CAMS Manual of Motor Sport.
We would be obliged if you could inform your competitors of the above information as soon as possible. Any competitors wishing to further discuss the matter may wish to contact Bruce Keys, (03) 9593 7778 or CAMS Chief Medical Assessor, Dr Geoff Wigley. Yours sincerely Bruce Keys Manager - Safety and Medical Services
