- 2° Category cars pertaining to Period D (built from 1931 al 1946)
- 3° Category cars pertaining to Period E (built from 1947 to 1957)

Under no circumstances will a car built after 1957 be accepted.  However, a certain number of cars built before 1927 may participate, provided models of these took part in the Mille Miglia up to 1930.
To take part in the Mille Miglia, all cars must have CSAI, FIA Heritage Certificate or an FIVA passport.
A total of 375 cars will be allowed to participate.
Only the selection committee can choose which cars will be allowed to participate, and their decision is final. 

No substitution of cars is allowed after the closing date of on-line entry application.
Cars with trial license plates are not allowed.
No new protruding additions to the car body are allowed, and especially no appendages added to enhance the car’s speed or timing, that were not originally included in the car’s design by the car manufacturer. Also not permitted on the outside and on the inside of the car is the use of adhesive target finders larger than 15 cm long and 2 cm wide. Under no circumstances can stickers or adhesive pieces be placed on the car’s event participation number, on the organization’s advertising, or on the event license plates.

Coefficients
A coefficient will be calculated for each car to compensate for the diverse characteristics and capabilities of the varieties of cars in the race. This will also take into account the period of the car’s design and construction. The table of coefficient calculation procedures is attached below.  

ART. 7 –COMPETITORS AND DRIVERS

Each car may register a team composed of one or two drivers, or else, of one driver and one navigator.   The competitors, the drivers and the navigators must all be holders of a CSAI Competitor/Driver’s license or of a valid regularity license.

The waiting list will be published ten days before the start of the checks (on May 2, 2009) by the selection committee. It will show in a progressive order the number of each car on the waiting list. If there are any last minute cancellations or if an entered car does not pass the checks, the car at the top of the waiting list will take its place.
The entry fees will not be returned to any competitor who is admitted to the event, but does not show up for the pre-event checks, or who shows up with documents and/or cars that do not correspond to the documents used to register for the event. 
Once registered, all competitors and drivers must respect the sole jurisdiction of the International Sporting Code and the rules and regulations stated herein.

ART. 9 – PRE-EVENT CHECKS

All competitors and drivers must appear with their car at the place and at the time shown on the programme to carry out the following formalities:

• required document check for competitors/drivers and navigators (sport license, driver’s license, medical certificate, etc.)
• check of the entered car by way of the documents described in Art. 6

Clerk of the Course Briefing: procedure
Having passed the technical checks, the crews are then invited to sit down in the theatre room and watch a short film (in English as well as Italian) in which the Clerk of the Course gives advice, explanations, and warnings. 
The text of his speech will also be given to each crew in writing, and they should read it carefully, as they will have to sign for having received and understood it. 
The Clerk of the Course or one of his representatives will be physically present at the Info Point by the theatre to clarify and answer any questions the participants may have. 

ART. 10 - THE START

The order at the starting line will be based on the following criteria:

• All OMs in increasing order on the basis of declared fabrication year.
• Next, the cars belonging to each of the periods listed in the coefficients table, these in increasing order.
• In each period division, the cars will be lined up in the following order:
-first the 750s, arranged in order by Turismo, GT and Sport
-then the 1100s, arranged in order by Turismo, GT and Sport
-and finally the beyond 1100s, in the same order by category, and in each category, by increasing cylinderage.

The cars coming from the waiting list will be positioned on the basis of their newly assigned event number.
Starts will be spaced 20 seconds apart, with each car at a stand-still, but waiting, with its engine on. 
The moment the signal is given, the car should start as quickly as possible.
Cars that cannot start on their own, can be pushed, under the watchful eyes of the marshals of the event. 
Crews that do not start from the CO 1 Brescia-Partenza will be penalized as foreseen in Art. 15.6 for each missed transit control point. They must however then pass through the first CO checkpoint of the second leg of the event (on the second day). If they do not do so, that is, they skip both consecutive initial checkpoints, (that of the first day and also that of the second), they will be excluded from the rest of the event. 
An official car with the number 500 will go in front of all the cars in the event. This car will open the route and also serve as a “test chronometer”, checking the times along the route.

ART. 11 –EVENT PROCEDURE

The event will conform to all the relevant sporting regulations. 
In particular:
-the only official theoretical times that the drivers are to respect are the ones shown in the timetable.  
- there is no restriction on the use of time-keeping devices to check times on the part of the drivers  
- the official time used by the event will be GPS satellite time.  
-Synchronization of drivers’ time keeping devices can only be done visually by using the clock located at the beginning of each leg. Electronically connecting to it by cable is not permitted.
-The parc fermé rules will hold only where there are checkpoints, in the area between signs marking the beginning and the end of each sector. In no other area of the event will parc fermé rules be applied.   
- No assistance is allowed, other than in the checkpoint zones.  This holds true also in the parts of the route expressly indicated as “off limits” in the official road book of the event.          
- If by chance the time-taking apparatus did not work or worked badly while taking the time for under 20% of the total cars in the event, the Stewards of the Event will give the cars that experienced this problem the average point penalization that they received in similar checkpoints of the same type (PC or CO) on the same day that the problem occurred.  This average, of course, will be calculated without using the contested figure.  These averaged penalty points will then be multiplied by the appropriate coefficient, if the checkpoint was for time controls (CO).
The Stewards will have the final say after they have met together to discuss the problem, but while waiting for their decision, a temporary score of zero points will be assigned.
If however, more than 20% of the cars at this checkpoint have experienced the problem, the checkpoint figure will be eliminated for all cars.

ART. 12 – REGROUPINGS (16)

No regrouping is allowed.

ART. 13 – MAXIMUM TIME LIMIT

A crew will have exceeded the time limit if they transit a Time Control (CO) more than 60 minutes after their theoretical passage time.
The opening and closing times of the Regularity Stages (PC) and of the Passage Controls (CT) will be those shown on the timetable.        

ART. 14 – DRIVERS’ OBLIGATIONS

During the event, all drivers must scrupulously respect all Italian traffic laws and the rules of the road set down by the Clerk of the Course and the Race Marshals. Their conduct on the road and off it should be prudent and careful.       
Crews who do not obey the rules and/or the law will be subject to the following penalties:   
- first offense: 300 negative penalty points
- second offense: 12,000 negative penalty points
- third offense: expulsion from the event
Drivers are not allowed to stop their cars in the checkpoint zones. These are marked by signs at the beginning and at the end of the zone. Also forbidden is reversing, U-turns, opening car doors, and in any way hindering the other cars passing through the zone. The sole exception to this is a brief stop when required by the Race Marshals (eg. to stamp the competitor’s card).  
Drivers and navigator are to behave in a prudent and courteous manner with each other, with the event officials and in particular, with the spectators.  
Due to circumstances beyond the control of the event organizers, it may become necessary to make changes to the route of the event. An example of this could be a road blockage, or a situation where an obligatory average speed could prove dangerous. In this case, parts of the route might be removed from the time trials. 
It must be underlined that each competitor is responsible for the behavior of his support vehicles and accompanying cars. These related vehicles must obey the rules of the road, listen to the Road Marshalls, and follow their separate route avoiding city and town centers where indicated (indicated both in the road book and on signs approaching the alternate route).     
Lack of observance of these rules will lead to sanctions against the competitor, to be decided by the College of Stewards of the Event, and may potentially include expulsion from the event.     
The event Judges of Fact will be on the look-out for misbehavior on the part of the competitors, their support vehicles and their accompanying cars. They will keep the Clerk of the Course informed of any wrong-doing, but they will not make any decisions regarding sanctions on their own.   
Each crew will be given a GPS unit before leaving Brescia.  This unit must be kept on board the car for the duration of the event.  It is to be returned only at the CO (Time Control) at the finish line.

ART. 16 - THE FINISH

The finish line checkpoint will be located at Montichiari, at the Centro Fiera del Garda (Garda Trade Fair Center) and will be open from 9:15 p.m. on Saturday May 16, 2009

Once they have passed the checkpoint at the finish line, competitors are to proceed on to the finish line stage in Brescia, on Viale Venezia. 

ART. 17 –RANKING

A car’s ranking will be decided on the basis of the number of points obtained (calculated using the points table multiplied by the coefficient assigned to the car) minus the penalty points received.      
The crew with the highest number of points will be proclaimed the winner.
In case of a tie in the final ranking, the winner will be the crew which has the least number of penalty points, not the most number of points, during the course of the first regularity stage. If this is not sufficient for a decision, then the second regularity stage will be taken into consideration, and then if necessary the third, and so on. 
Crews who for whatever reason have not transited the third leg or have not turned in the time card at the Finish Line checkpoint – the arrival after the third leg – will not classify. 
Cars will be classified according to the following criteria:
a) general;
b) grouping;
c) special:            
    c1) car manufacturers (the highest scoring car for each Joint Presenting Sponsor)
    c2) women drivers
    c3) nations
These classifications will be shown as per the programme.

The event will have the following trophies of honor:
- the first 15 cars or more in the general classification will receive trophies for both members of the crew
- the first to classify in each of the 3 groupings;
