Season 19 Novices Trophy - Round 3 - Laguna SecaThe track was built in 1957 at a cost of $1.5 million after the nearby Pebble Beach Road Races were abandoned for being too dangerous.
The circuit has never hosted an F1 race but has hosted lots of other series on both 2 and 4 wheels.
Drivers should be careful not to lose their lunch as they drive through the feature corner of this circuit, The Corkscrew which is considered to be one of motorsport most challenging turns due to the drop in elevation as well as its blind crest and apex on the uphill approach.
Reserve drivers should not join until there are only 30 mins of qualifying left and all drivers should not go out on track until there are 30 minutes of qualifying left as this helps all drivers join the server successfully.

see aboveDriver lists can be found on the
championship standings pageWe have split the cars into groups based on average performance and split the drivers into groups based on average ability. The chassis numbers for Novices are as follows:
NOVICE CHASSIS GROUPS1 - Lotus, Ferrari, BRM, Honda
2 - BT11
3 - Cooper
4 - BT7
Each driver has been given a seeding number and must pick a chassis with either an equal number or higher number but not a lower number. For example, if a driver is given a seeding of 2, he must pick one of the cars in group 2 (BT11) but if he would prefer to drive either the Cooper or BT7 he may do so. This means that a driver given a seeding of 1 can pick any chassis he prefers.
**NOTE**
Whichever chassis a driver begins his first race with is the chassis he must use for the remainder of the season unless a change has been agreed with the moderator.
