Gary, in summary - on a Time Attack day there are two 10 minute practice sessions in the morning run for each class.

Then there is qualifying where cars are released in a staggered order to allow for a 'clear' lap (bit like old F1 qualifying) and then the top 5 from each class are then put out on track for the 'Super Battle' where they are all on track together and have to fight for the space to get a clear lap in.

ALL of the club class qualified cars were on track together for the superbattle so you have FWD, RWD, AWD forced induction and NASP all on track together - makes it busy and hard to find your space.

I personally think it's a fantastic series and Ron seems to have taken to it very well indeed
