You know what, when I was compiling the series something was subliminally telling me that something wasn't right but I didn't take note of it. I should've because we have run a GR86 series before. I've now hopefully amended the details but if anything still awry is spotted, please let me know.
What is the correct race time please ? On the poster it is 18:00 GMT. On the championship page it says 17:15 GMT but mostly the Sunday races start at 19:00 to 19:20 GMT.
It always gets a bit confusing around this time of year when Summer Savings Time changes in many areas of the world. Due to the many variations we use GMT as the base reference time for our series. To keep the actual start time of Qualifying & the Race the same wherever you are in the world, we have to adjust the GMT time when Summer Savings Time is "switched on" and then when it is "switched off". So for this series BST (British Summer Time) ends in the UK (and other countries) on the last Sunday in October, so as an example before it ends, the race in the UK has Qualifying at 18:00 GMT i.e. 17:00 BST and the race at 18:15 GMT i.e. 17:15. After summer time (BST) ends GMT rules again, so the race is listed as 18:00/18:15 GMT. It's all very confusing but a time standard needs to be used for our race scheduling and as we are a UK based operation it is GMT. Essentially if your race qualifying is at e.g. 20:00 and the series crosses the Summer Savings Time boundary then all the races will still be at 20:00 for you. You shouldn't need to worry about this though as long as you have listed your country when registering your SRO membership, your Time Zone on every race page displays the Local Race Time in your country like mine here
Thanks Ken. So the Event page with a race time of 17:15 GMT for this Sunday is the correct time. Unfortunately, that means it is too early for me here in Europe, 19:15.
This car mod has a bug. If you do a pit-stop in the race session it takes a stupid amount of time to add fuel, so carry enough fuel to complete the 60 min race and make sure to set your car setup to no-fuel in the pit-stop options.

Another lessen learned the hard way!! Looking forward to this race no matter whether I am competitive or not because I love driving this track. My best lap so far with race fuel a 128.7 It felt fast, but is it ?
Looks a good time if its repeatable Karl. I did manage a one-off lap of 1.28.343, but more from luck than skill
