                              World Championship
                                      Rules

        The Little Formula Racing Series is a armchair driver fantasy
league involving drivers from around the world.  LFRS is oriented around
MicroProse's World Ciruit(a.k.a. F1GP).  Competitors use WC to run the
races, then submit times to be compared with other drivers.  Points are
awarded to each driver based on their performance, and at the end of the
season, the driver who has accumulated the most points will win the LFRS
World Championship.  The series is taylored to fit drivers of all different
backgrounds and interests. The following are the rules for LFRS.  All the
information concerning the series should be found here.  If you have any
questions, please contact one of the directors.

                DE3...@aol.com or dgy...@gdcarc.co.uk.  Replys will be sent
                ASAP.
        1.2-Results:  Send all results to LF...@aol.com by the specified
                deadline.
        1.3-News Letter:  If you have questions or something to be published
                in the newsletter(ie. race stories), send them to
                dgy...@gdcarc.co.uk.

 2-LFRS Home
        2.1-AOL:  The home for LFRS on AOL is in the Simulation Auto board.
                Any files can be downloaded from the Sim Auto Library.

                http://www.mal.com/~dgymer/lfrs/.
        2.3-Inet:  LFRS will also be on rec.autos.simulator.  Files can be
                downloaded by FTP to didnt.doit.wisc.edu.

 3-Software
        3.1-Simulation:  LFRS requires the competitors to use World Circuit
                by Microprose.  No other sim will be used.
        3.2-Other:  You must also have GPEditor v2.0(F1ED maybe used),CCPit,
                and GPLap v5.0.  WCLaunch is recommended, but optional.

 4-Season
        4.1-Dates:  Pre-season testing will begin on June 4th, 1995 at

        5.2-Why:  The reason for this testing is to show everyone where they
                stand against the competition and to give a chance to those
                who are a little behind some time to catch up for the
                offical start of the season.  It's chance also for the
