    As the Winter Cup is a one off race separate from the Main Summer season which starts in March, we’ve decided (from the feedback from our drivers) to mix it up a little.

    This means we will have 2×2 hour races, each team will have to stop twice (Some teams have three drivers)

    The plan is :-

    During drivers briefing – All teams will be entered into a hat and will be picked at random.

    15:00 – First 2 hour race start – based on Random Grid allocation (All Karts need to be on the dummy grid before hand)

    16:55 – Fuel bay is closed.
    17:00 – Race 1 end, all drivers weigh up and back onto dummy grid where the order is reversed based on your allocation in race 1 (For instance if you started first, you start last!) – Drivers line up on the dummy grid in their new starting positions – no fuel to be taken on board, but drivers changes are permitted
    17:10-15 – Race 2 Start
    17:20 – Fuel bay open

    Races are scored as per normal scoring per race, then added up.
    This means that you will start race 2 on the fuel you have at the end of race 1. Fuel bay will be open shortly after the second race has started. No drivers can take on fuel 5 minutes before the end of race 1 and during the change over period for race 2.
