ROUND 8 - ZOLDER

RACE: MONDAY DECEMBER 9

8:00PM EST / 01:00AM GMT

Welcome to Season 7, Round 8 FINALE!

This is it, Round 8 - The Finale - for Season 7 of the Ricmotech Mini-Mite Sportscar Challenge. It's been quite a while since one of our series has run at Zolder - a track many of you may be learning for the first time. The good news is you'll have two 35-minute sprints to figure it out!

Let's make good use of practice this week to prepare to not only earn maximum points but to put on our best two races of the season. Just because this is the final race and the pressure may be on for some drivers to get points, we must maintain a high level of racecraft and situational awareness.

Please also feel welcome to use the Discord server to chat amongst yourselves during practice.
