The grid for race one will be set by qualifying, the grid for race 2 will be set by the results of Race 1. Both races will start with a manual single file rolling start with pole position acting as a pace car. Pace lap speed will be limited to 120km/h. Once the leader reaches pit entrance the leader will be in control, once the leader accelerates the race will be considered under green flag conditions. Passing may occur once the race is green (when the leader accelerates).

If someone disconnects at race start or anytime during the formation lap a restart will occur, any disconnections after the race has officially started there will be no restarts.

In the event of an accident involving 2 or more cars, in the second race only, a safety car can be called. Once a safety car has been called drivers are required to manually flash their lights until their reach the safety car queue so other drivers are aware. Once a safety car is called the race will be under full course yellow flag conditions. Drivers may choose to pit under safety car conditions. The race will be restarted at the start finish line once all cars are in the safety car queue.

so we are not doing any Tuesday series now?

Poll had Thursday as the most popular day (both here and on facebook)

dam that sucks. Tuesday and Wednesdays were the only days i can commit to.. Fridays and Sundays are out and Thursdays possibly could make a couple.

Sign up anyway, there's no requirement to make all rounds, plus there's a drop round

Last round last night ?

Cool I will archive it and now Thursday night is free for anything else
