It's time to see which manufacture will win the Spa 24 Hours as ANZCRL are introducing the Kings Cup or better known as the Coupe du Roi. The Spa 24 Hours has been one of the most popular GT stand alone endurance race since 2000 being a part of the FIA GT Championship and more recently the Blancpain Endurance Series. You can team up to share the driving or do it on your own, the choice is yours. There will be 3 sessions so you can have a driver change for each session if you choose to do so, but must use the same car and livery and drivers nominated in your sign up. Changes to your team can be made up until midday Saturday 20th October AEST.

Coupe du Roi will be used for the Spa 24 Hours race. The best manufacturer wins the Coupe du Roi (King's Cup), which is not necessarily the race winners. The cup is won by the manufacturer with the most points, accrued by cars that are made by the same manufacturer. For example, Australian car manufacturer Holden won the Coupe du Roi in 1986 despite their cars finishing the race in 18th, 22nd and 23rd positions outright.
Points will be awarded to the overall top 10 after each session towards the Coupe du Roi. 1st - 25 2nd - 18 3rd - 15 4th - 12 5th - 10 6th - 8 7th - 6 8th - 4 9th - 2 10th - 1

NOTE: The 1st session will be a rolling start with formation lap. Coming into the final chicane complex a speed of 80kph is to be maintained with the front row cars only allowed to accelerate after crossing the start line and not before. This is to allow most of the grid to clear the final chicane due to small distance from the final chicane to start line. Sessions 2 - 3 will be a standing start into a formation lap so we can get everyone into grid order from results of the previous race session for a manual rolling start. Lead drivers are to control the formation lap at a comfortable pace making sure that all behind have organised into correct grid position. Coming into the final chicane complex a speed of 80kph is to be maintained and all drivers must hold a single file position until the lead driver starts the race.
There will be no safety cars throughout the event, so please be mindful at each session race start to not ruin your fellow competitors race.
Drivers laps completed after each session will be added up to get overall winner. Time difference after the 1st two sessions will not be calcuated only the completed laps will be calculated. If you disconnect or don't like to say this but RAGE QUIT, the lap it occured will be the number of laps completed for that session.
