This will be the Race of Champions special for drivers finishing 4th (or possibly 5th) or better in UKGTR Endurance Season 1 (GT and NGT in both divisions) and 2, and Sprint NGT and GT Season 1 and 2, and for at least two drivers from each winning team from the above competitions.

Would be good if people could try this track before hand to find out if we have any issues with it.
Thanks.

For reference, the principle qualifiers are those who finished top 4 in UKGTR Season 1 and 2 Sprint and Endurance, all divisions; reserves are those who finished 5th, but assuming that we're on the new server (which looks likely) they will also qualify to race.
The only exception is Leuven who finished 5th in NGT Sprint Season 2 but gets an automatic upgrade on behalf of CBFR to ensure that all winning teams have at least two representatives.
Principle qualifiers:
CeeJay D Boyd Dave Gymer Don fozzmeister ginsters sponsored greg130 Jamera JonM_uk Krueger Mark Harrison Matjaz Plotajs Mike Wrightson mo Nakano_56 popabawa Rich_A Shark Truetom Zacari [ZiP]Tyf LEUVEN
5th place reserves:
Aagramn aajay_uk Bernie Lomax Blaz locutos ukgtr Mark Jonzo silver53
Teams:
CBFR dE Racing GTN Drivers Club Kerb Crawlers NGT Legends Ze insane Penguins
If any team in the above list cannot field two drivers from the above lists, please PM me with 1 or 2 nominated replacements, the only requirement is that nominated drivers must have completed at least one UKGTR championship race (Season 3 races do count).

Are people going to stick with the class of car (GT/NGT) they 'qualified' for this race in? I'm just wondering if we'll get an even GT/NGT split I'll be in my GT3 (surprise!)

I was thinking of taking a GT, as I qualify from more than one championship I guess I get free call?

It'll be free choice. I know a lot of people have switched from GT to NGT after championship wins in GT so I didn't want to drag people back to cars they're no longer happy in. Personally I'm torn between the Vertislow (because it's Belgian ), Corvette (because I loves it ), and one of the Team Shark skinned cars (because they look nice ).

What exactly is considered to be a pit stop. Can I just stop and say the team they don't need to change tyres and fuel and drive on? Also 2 drivers that used to drive for dE Racing now drive for RSC Motorsports. I think it's a great idea to have such a race so I'll be there for sure and may I say I love the track.

I tried out Silverstone last night online (on my own ), fantastic to drive on, the corners before Hanger Straight are awesome (Becketts etc is it?) We have Silverstone running on the old server if you want to try it online.

The only requirement is that you come to a complete stop in your pit box. I don't want to start issuing minimum times and we've no way to check for what work is carried out. Also 2 drivers that used to drive for dE Racing now drive for RSC Motorsports. I think it's a great idea to have such a race so I'll be there for sure and may I say I love the track. Team points will go to whoever they're signed up with in LM2 but if that's going to be "wrong" there are ways we can work around it. Ultimately it's up to those drivers which team they represent.

I had a feeling that was just using the live data export, not a visual feed

I remember driving on this track in Comet summer league last year and we had some troubles with length of the race. Let's say we set 30 minutes of racing and in the race we only got 17 or so. Did anyone tested this one to make sure it works OK?
