    My proposal for a 2026 series is simple:

    Pre-War El Piloto running ScaleAuto GP124 Classic cars from the 1937-1939 Season

    • H2 Series
    • All cars will be mechanically prepared by one person. The preparer’s laps will be limited to the minimum necessary to confirm stability and mechanical viability at the start of the series, and after any maintenance required between races.
    • All cars will be painted in a historically accurate livery. (Painting may be done by a person other than the one responsible for preparing the mechanicals.)
    • Cars will remain in parc ferme’ between races.
    • Cars will be available for practice for up to 2 minutes to each racer on race day.
    • Cars will be raced in the same lane for every heat at each race.
    • Cars will rotate to a new lane at each race.
    • Cars will be raced at 11.5v to 12.5v, to be determined during initial car preparation.
    • Cars will may be auctioned to club members, distributed as prizes, kept for following season, or a combination of these dispositions at the end of the season. Subject to membership approval.

    Prewar GP Car

    Build it strong.
    Keep it simple.
    Make it work.
