Bugger. Had some withdrawals. So we're back to 28. It's gonna be lonely out there. I was planning on three groups but now I'm thinking two groups, 5 hot lap sessions, and you drive around and line straight up if you are ready, otherwise skip two sessions. You'll get at least the same amount of time on track (including time for those turbos to cool down), or twice as much if you want. For those who are there it will be awesome value.

Don't forget to organise a CTP (which is optional but recommended).

I would say stick with the 3, that still gives heaps of track time and a chance for cars to cool down. Plus, the 'time difference/mix' in the groups will be better and there will be less chance of overtaking.

Either way I better bring more fuel than planned :)

Definitely better off with 3 groups than 2, 9-10 cars per group vs 14 is a big difference on small circuits like Sprint and Clubman. Better to have one or two fewer sessions with a clear track, than endless laps without a chance to turn a good one.

The last QR day times on the Sprint ranged from 1:00.3552 to 1:16.8998 with 36 cars. I think we ran 4 groups then and there were no issues.

Would be nice to try and get 2 sessions on the National :)

I'm leaning towards 3 groups also for reasons others have stated.
