Round 1 has been run and won with a reasonable driver turnout for both races. Russell Speak takes the round win from Vail Riches with John Baldwin in 3rd place. In all 17 drivers braved the 79 Silverstone layout despite the extremely busy racing schedule at AOR with 3 major championship races within the week.
In other news, The Pitstop Bookstore and Biante models have joined the sponsor list along with Brumby's Bakeries to make the prize cabinet even healthier. I am continuing to pester other organizations, and have at least 1 other iron pretty warm in the fire.

Hi all.
Well, its snuck up on us to the point that the racing starts next Wednesday at
Silverstone for 2 x 25 min races. Due to the uncertainty of weight
handicapping of the cars, it will be a free for all, so choose your weapon of
choice, but I would encourage everyone to add some variety to the mix if they
feel game by taking on the challenge of using one of the "lesser"
cars.

We have had a stead influx of driver registrations, and with AOR's new kickarse server, big fields will be no problem. In other news, The Prize Cabinet has grown and we now have a few new items. Hopefully, we'll be able to add even more as I harass anyone who is willing to listen :).
