A few changes have been made for this year, alleviating the problem faced last year for entrants wanting to run in both U2L and O2L classes. If an entrant requests to run in both U2L and O2l, each driver will get 4 heats per class, with seperate ladder finals. Please also note, the entry cost of £6, entitles the entrant to run in either one or both classes, for the same price. Very generous!
