Don't bother if you want to race in this league Alan. I tried getting in
here about 2 weeks ago and never got as much as an email in reply, as to why
whether my application was filed or not. I can only assume so as I get the
mailing list most days.....

Hi Mark, I have just taken over from the original administrator of the UK
GPL league.
Due to other commitments he has been unable to keep everything up to date,
so I am currently catching up on all the latest applications.
If you still wish to take part in the league then please join the "Onelist"
mailing list on the homepage
http://www.btinternet.com/~ian.parker1/ukgpl/index.html and also fill out
the join section again as I have not recieved a copy of your application.
( The following link will be updated ASAP to point to the new site and send
any info to me http://start.at/greenflag )

We are now aiming to run 3 separate leagues

1 Online UK championship
2 Online UK ladder (using ISDN UK hosts)
3 Offline racing league

We are also considering running F2 and F3 races within no's 2 & 3

The Online UK championship is currently full until we arrange further high
bandwidth hosts, but the others are open for people to join.
