The "Transatlantic Challenge" (yeah, daft name, oh well) is the second UKGPL F2 "mini-series", running over 4 tracks from the other side of the pond. We have now actually decided on the tracks: Road Atlanta has already been run, and will be followed by Desert Winds, Sears Point '99 and finally Indy F1. Check out the schedule for dates and download links.
Format
Races are bi-weekly on Tuesday nights, and all the races are moderated with the points gping towards the series standings. Points will be from the Best 3 out of 4 races, ie everyone drops their worst race. Any penalties will be deducted after that race has been dropped. Points will be standard UKGPL non-tokens ie 50, 40, 35, 30 etc.
This time, races are all Pro Short with 20 minutes qualifying. Car choice is open, use any car for any race, but there is an informal handicap system - if you are fast, use the slightly slower cars, and only use the Brabham if you need it to keep up! As a rough guide the top 3 should probably all be in nothing faster than a Cooper. It's not absolute and drivers won't know til the race how fast they'll be relative to everyone else, so don't panic, just make a sensible guess - it seems to work fine.
