Steve Wood should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Sean, yes, it's definitely being split, in an attempt to allow the reserves a possibility to race.

At the half-way mark, the safety car will pick up the leader, and bring the field into the pit lane, which is to be considered "parc ferme".

At this point, the amount of cars that have permanently retired, will be replaced by the same amount of reserves (who's position as "reserve 1, reserve 2", etc, has already been determined, probably in the order that they coughed up their dosh). The reserves will join the back of the queue, and the safety car will lead the pack back out on the track for a pace lap, then it's racing again.

I hope everybody will bear with us in this new initiative. Like a lot of things the EERC does, it's breaking new ground. Let's give it a go.

Cost effective - not Locost !
