Season 19 Spec Race Challenge - Round 5 - Brands Hatch Round 5 of the Spec Race Challenge & we are back on British soil for a 3rd time this season with a visit to Brands Hatch.
After four rounds, Hristo leads the Light brigade but a non-appearance at Porto means Tim Muttram closes the gap. Steve Bird is still leading the charge in the Heavy Brigade having taken first or second place in 8 consecutive races. Phil Thornton a solid second and Maddog in third.
We will run two races on the same track. Two chassis are available, you must use one in each race. Use the same car twice earns you a disqualification in the second race.
Your choice of chariot for this occasion is the 1965 Mod ~ Cooper versus the BT7.
The Spec Series is a full championship with standard points scoring. In addition the moderator will also tally up every drivers fastest race lap & compare the chassis head to head. For your time to count in the “Spec Challenge” you must complete more than 50% distance in both races. Resets are allowed so don’t retire because of a bad start.
Also the Spec Series in the only GPL championship to be decided exclusively by driver skill, no handicapping applies.
