Championship points were awarded to the top twenty finishers at each round according to the outright position attained. If two drivers shared a car the points were split between the two drivers, except at Round 4 where two driver combinations were mandated by regulations, removing the single driver option. Full points to both drivers were awarded. The exception to this was Round 4 at
Bathurst as Peter Brock received no points for winning the race while co-winners John Harvey and Larry Perkins were both awarded full points. This was because Brock had started the race in his usual No.05 which had an engine failure on lap 8 before transferring to No.25 on lap 22, the rules being that a driver could not be awarded awarded points after swapping cars. While this gave Brock no points despite the win, it did not affect his usual co-driver Perkins who only got to drive the race winning No.25 Commodore in the race. ==Results==
