None of this is really official yet but some tasters while we put the finishing touches to the detail. Next year:

8 race weekends:

Silverstone
Oulton Park
Rockingham
Brands Hatch
Castle Combe
Croft or Pembrey
Thruxton
Snetterton

Full TV package, two spearate programs, one as part of race weekend and separate series for the CSL Cup itself shown on Motors TV, Sky Sports and ITV 3. Potential for live TV deal yet to be sorted (think BTCC coverage).

Class changes:

Standard Class

Running on Dunlop Direza track day tyres
Limitations to modifications to include brakes, suspension and power only

Modified Class

Running on same DUnlop SLicks as this year
Lower weight limit and less restrictions on bodywork

Both classes to retain standard ECU and Vanos as before and standard GB and Diff.

E90 Class

Invitational class for E92/3 M3 to be separate class as we get more entrants than ours which will be R&D for 2011 season

Prize Money

Winners of each race to receive £250, second place £100, thrid place £50, bigger and better trophies. Winner of best self spannered car to win £3000 Teng Tool kit at end of season (we were doing this this year but as grid was small we decided to keep it back).

We've guarranteed a 15 car starting grid for next year so we're confident of the entries.

Looking good.:thumbs:

Standard class will be a lot fuller next year with the move to Direza track day tyres. Slicks put a lot of the new drivers off it seems, whereas the more experienced drivers know that slicks are a lot more fun so wont go back. With standard class on track day rubber the cost is a lot lower (set of Direzas should last three weekend easy - we will test of course to be sure) and are less of a change than full slicks. Also mean the two classes will be larger difference in terms of track times which means easier races to follow.

Shame, I would rather run on slicks, but cant see our car competing in the modded class, 100brake down and 200kg up :hahaha::hahaha::hahaha:
