Title: UKGPL Season 37 (2020) Mixed Open Wheel - Road Atlanta - Sep 1
Post by: Billy Nobrakes on August 26, 2020, 09:45:25 PM +0100
Season 37 MIXED OPEN WHEEL – Round 3 –  Road Atlanta  

It’s the third round of the Mixed Open Wheel series in which we will be using cars from 1965, 1966, 1967 (F2) & the newly released 1968 mod. Drivers entering this series must select a manufacturer group & keep to that group for the whole season. Where more than one chassis is allocated to the group you can select any car. Pro / Works standard drivers cannot use Group 8 or Group 9.

Round 3 will use the 3 litre engined cars from 1966. Atlanta is a 2.54-mile (4.088 km) road course located just north of Braselton, Georgia. The facility is utilized for a wide variety of events, including professional and amateur sports car and motorcycle races, racing and driving schools, corporate programs and testing for motorsports teams. The track has 12 turns, including the famous "esses" between turns three and five; and Turn 12, a downhill, diving turn. The track is owned by NASCAR through its subsidiary Panoz Motorsports, and is the home to the Petit Le Mans, as well as AMA motorcycle racing, and smaller events throughout the year..

Congratulations Tristan and Doni (it looks like you had a close race with Alain and Dave), well done!
This time I was to early for practice and very surprised to make the pole. When Tristan pass me direct after the start, it was hard to follow. After my first spin I only want finish. So I‘m very happy with my second place.
Nice selective track!
Looking forward to our next race.
