We're looking for a few more drivers to fill out the field for the next season. The FV division starts its 8th Season on January 8. The F2 division is starting its second season on January 15. Races are held on Thursdays at 7:30 PM EST. The F2 schedule mimics the FV schedule for the convenience of those that want to run in both series. The core group of drivers has been racing together for over 2 years and new drivers have always been welcomed. The points system makes sure that all the cars get used, and helps to even out the field but with the better drivers coming out ahead in the championship. If you're looking for some close racing, good sportsmanship, and a friendly atmosphere trackside, then check us out. Battle for the famous Huepenbecker Cup in FV, and the "Top Gun" Award in F2. http://users.hfx.eastlink.ca/~mackaypenny/gplreg.html Ken (remove the spamblocker to reply by email)

I like the money system you have(we also used it in another league). If you were running F1, I might give it a shot.

Go to http://gplecrl.bcsims.com and look around to see if you are interested.

Mooo? We haven't done the ring for a while :-( Maybe it's time to put some pressure on the admins especially since we're also running f2 (you almost have enough time to read Four Wheel Drift in the fvs down that straight).

Nice power to grip ratio (not the driving on ice feeling of F3), and you actually have time to catch mistakes (or at least realize what you did wrong as you're sliding through the grass :-) ). Much easier to drive than F1 and F2 and F3 but still require some skill to get the most from them. Ken

The ring is about the only track that I really like running the slower classes in. One of these days I'll beat 9minutes in FG :) rms
The schedule for Season 8 is included below. There are two non points races scheduled for the holiday periods and an eight race series for both our flagship FV division and the supporting F2 series. Also, the tracks are the same for both series, to reduce the learning curve and allow more race "seat time" for those that choose to race both series. The new tracks were picked largely on the "fun to drive" ratings from the GPL Track Database.

Still room for a few more drivers in both FV and F2. The FV season opener starts this Thursday (Jan 8), and F2 starts Jan 15. http://users.hfx.eastlink.ca/~mackaypenny/gplreg.html Ken
