We've had this wonderful rFaсtor version of Laguna Seca by com8 for years, yet for no obvious reason SCU never had a moder sports car race there (only historic races). After the recent Sebring 12h event most of the stuff is ready anyway... so why not? Coincidentally the American Le Mans Series is to have their 6 hour event there on May the 12th. With ALMS impressions still fresh in our minds, it's time to have a go at it!
Up to 2009 'Monterey Sports Car Championships' used to be a 4h race. We've chosen to have a 4h race as well, mainly because there's a number of drivers insane enough to challenge themselves to a 4h race with no driver changes. So it's 4 hours, driver changes are allowed, but not mandatory. 1 car = 1 team = 1 or 2 drivers, including 1 team manager that will be
required to register on the forum and post his team entry personally. New entries will be reviewed daily. The event will not go ahead unless we have 20 teams signed 1 hour before the qualifying.
