  Calendar FAQs
  Why are there 9 rounds?
  We did 9 rounds in 2012 and that worked well. We looked to drop to 8 but it left a few very large gaps on the calendar.
  What about Silverstone GP, Brands GP, Croft or a foreign round ?
  As last year the simple answer is numbers vs cost. To make these events viable we would need to either guarantee a large entry or buy the grid up front and set the entry fee. In 2011 we did this at Silverstone GP and the BRSCC did at Brands GP. Both organisations lost many thouands of pounds on these events. If we get to a position where we are confident we can make these events pay then we will be delighted to reconsider them. Alternatively, if someone would like to sponsor the event and buy the grid for us then we'd be more than happy to race at these venues.
  So what happened to the “short” one day double headers?
  People had asked us to try these types of event. We did two in 2012 at Silverstone National and Castle Combe. The feedback has been - people would rather do a conventional two day double header. So for 2013 all races will be one day single headers or two day double headers.
  What about Pre-91?
 

We're working with the BRSCC, who are supporting us in this initiative, and we hope to announce 2 or 3 meetings soon. It's most likely that these will be at meetings on the ARCA calendar and they will be single day, sinlge races.

  Will we have another summer get together at a race like Snetterton last July?
  Yes, we're planning to have 1 or 2 Saturday evening events in 2013 - more details much nearer to the time.
  The single rounds – will they all be over one day?
  Yes, we plan for them to be be qualifying and racing on one day.
