2008 Season Results
The
vast majority of the results from the 2008 season can be found on the Mylaps website.
Important Notes
Technical
Scrutineering of New Cars - Following a period of latitude
regarding this issue the F1 Management Board, backed by the committee, have
now decided
to enforce the rule. All new cars must be subject to technical
scrutineering before racing, there will be no exceptions. The
correct procedure is contained within
the rules book and if you are unsure contact a member of the committee.
Starts - At the recent
Board meeting, following a complaint from a senior steward the board took
the view that there is a problem. With immediate effect the
front two drives of each grade are responsible for setting the gap and the
rolling start. Too big a gap or too small a gap and you will be penalised.
Stewards & Marshals will be given support to penalise - also drivers
pushing from the back of the grade will be penalised. To clarify the way it
should be, at all meetings,
except WCQR and specially sanctioned events, there should be a
gap of no more than four car lengths. At WCQR this is reduced to two
car lengths. Finally
allow the starter to start the race and not the drivers.
Transponders - There are
still one or two problems. Firstly some drivers are forgetting to put
transponders on, no transponder could lead you to to being
excluded from the result. Secondly and this appears to be a shale problem,
some are positioned either too high or become obstructed by dirt guards.
The
system operators and Conrad will advise you - and listen because again you
could be omitted from the results and where doubt exists the result will
stand.
