This is a recreation of the SLR Trophy, an ill-fated attempt to turn the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren supercar into a racing series featuring identical SLR 722 GTs. Big power in a heavyweight, front-engine layout supercar attempts to turn the ultimate GT into a full race car. Three short sprint races will be held in one night with points to determine the overall victor.
Schedule
The race is currently scheduled for Saturday, November 16th.
The lobby opens for free practice at 16:30 EST. Qualifying will begin at 17:00 EST and will last for exactly 5 minutes. Race 1 will begin shortly after qualifying, lasting for approximately 20 minutes. There will be a short break, then Race 2 will be set by reverse grid, and last approximately 20 minutes.
