Championship Standings (https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?action=LM2R&group=533&theme=4)

Notes:
(1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see
cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage.
(2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules (https://www.simracing.org.uk/index.php?pid=7) especially the
rules about in-game chat messages.
(3) You will need to install Race Room Racing Experience from Steam, and have the Euro and American Track Packs for this series (And maybe another
non pack track occasionally)
(4) Please exercise caution when pitting as some tracks have a speed limit.

(5) Please follow the SROUK guidelines for using kerbs etc. Please keep 2 wheels on the track surface (kerbs do not count as track surface)
Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect this.

Didn't have any time to practice for this but fortunately RRE seemed to have saved my setup from the last time we raced here  :)

Grabbed pole but made my usual pants start and Ant was clear into T1  :'(  I knew it would be tough to pass in the Volvo as it was quick in all the wrong places which meant me having to wait for a mistake which never came.

Great series this, but seemed to go on foreeeeeeeeeeeeeever  ;) I like the idea of running shorter multiple series as drivers have fresh opportunities to compete for championships so might help interest levels.

Congrats to Ant on the championship and all who took part  8) Thanks to Matt for organising all of these great events even though he often struggles to attend races....that's commitment for you  :thumbup1:

Yeah great work Matt, but I do agree with GT about having shorter Championships. Looking forward to joining in the NSU events (and maybe some others if they take my fancy).

Ta for the comments. In P&G I ran 4 series so although they went on for a whole year, there were only 1/4 of the events
in each Championship. These two new series will likely run now until the end of the year. Maybe I will get creative
and create something a bit different in a couple of months. Work is nuts for me at the moment, so I have very
limited time to give this, it's not lack of interest on my part, it's just lack of time.

What cars are you planning to use for the upcoming series Matt? My son Jules has a new wheel on the way and I need to look at which content to buy to get him racing here.

Much the same as we have been using.
Cars will be :

Touring: DTM92, Touring Classics, NSU TT
GT      : Gr5, GTO, Procar

Tracks will be: Euro pack, American pack, SUzuka, Spa, Bathurst, Nordschliefe, Macau. Maybe Shanghai

I wanted to run two series with different style cars.

We did Macau with the DTM92 (I think) and was great fun, though that tight hairpin right half way round was "challenging"
The NSU charging throught the buildings feels a good mix to me.

The NSU is indeed fun here and is the only car I have ever managed to get round that damn hairpin  ::) A great track but totally unusable for anything else imho.
