To be able to take part in this championship you will need to own the Racing Car Pack as all cars used in this championship will be all the Touring Cars from this pack. You will also need to own the SPA-Francorchamps Course Pack & Twin Ring Motegi Track Pack as we will be using these tracks for this championship.
We have decided to use these touring cars as you can paint them any colour you like and put you own individual number on them
We have decided not to go with the normal qualifying system which most of you are familiar with. Instead we are going to do a divisional system which is outlined below.
There will be only 7 racers per division
Division 1 & 2 will race in Race Room 1 and Divisions 3 & 4 will race in Race Room 2 (14 racers per room)
The top 3 finishers at end of season will be promoted to the division above and the lowest 3 finishers will be demoted to the division below. With this in mind the seasons will be shorter than most of you are used to.
Points awarded - 1st - 10 points, 2nd - 6 points, 3rd - 4 points, 4th - 3 points, 5th - 2 points, 6th - 1 point, 7th - 0 points. These points are awarded to each division. If there are 3 divisions then 3 racers will score 10 points and so on.
