Well, after a few years hiatus the UKGPL organisation has setup a new league series for Saturday mornings (NZ time) featuring the Lola and Ferrari sports cars from 1967.  These are both terrific race cars and I am really looking forward to this series, particularly as there are some fantastic race tracks that have been selected.  Here's the official breakdown:

Handicapping

"Works" drivers will carry a weight penalty in the form of extra fuel. "Works" status will be declared by the divisional moderator at the start of the season.
So 10 rounds, and each car has to be driven 5 times but drivers decide at which track. I am designated a works driver, so will be driving with the extra fuel penalty. I've already installed the brake light patch so that's not an issue. Something that might be an issue is the race at the Isle of Man track. It's a wonderful and challenging track, but I think my old PC might not be able to run it, it's so graphics-hungry. That's something to ponder.  What a calendar - Dundrod, Spa, Rd America, Isle of Man and the finale at Le Mans.
