As part of our two Winter Wonderland races we will be running a 65 race at Spa Francorchamps to give you your GPL fix during the break.
It's a fun race so any chassis BUT running under Pro re scoring.
The twist is this will be a team race; Santa versus the Elves. We haven't got time to do a full blown who wants to be in which team thing so I will allocate which team you are in and endeavour to split the aliens and non-aliens evenly.
If you want to post here prior to the race I will let you know which team you are in by 29 December, if you want to just turn up I'll let you know in chat.
It will take a few extra minutes to sort any last minute joiners so please be in chat before 9pm so we can confirm the teams for a 9.20pm start. Anyone joining the race after that will be considered a spent cracker and have no team. If we get an odd number of official entrants the last Santa/Elf who counts will not be included in the scoring.
Team Points Scoring;
Standard Points Positions 1-19:

http://srmz.net/index.php?showtopic=143Designed by Jules de Their and Henri Langlois Van Ophem, the original 15 km (9.3 mile) triangle-shaped course used public roads between the Belgian towns of Francorchamps, Malmedy and Stavelot. The Belgian Grand Prix was held at Spa-Francorchamps for the first time in 1924. Eighteen Formula One World Championship Grands Prix were run on the Spa-Francorchamps circuit's original configuration, which was boycotted by F1 in 1968, before the revised circuit banished it to the history books in the late 70s. Over the years, the Spa course has been modified several times. The biggest change saw the circuit being shortened from 14 km (8.7 miles) to 7 km (4.35 miles) in 1979. Since inception, the place has been famous for its unpredictable weather. Frequently drivers are confronted with one part of the course being clear and bright while another stretch is rainy and slippery. The circuit probably demonstrates the importance of driver skill more than any other in the world. This is largely due to the Eau Rouge and Blanchimont corners, both of which need to be taken as cleanly as possible to achieve a fast run onto the straights after them, which aids a driver in both a fast lap and in over-taking.
