Copyright © Superlap Scotland
Super Lap Scotland is not racing, it is a very intense time-trial challenge event, where competitors compete throughout the day to post the fastest overall time in each of the nine classes.
All classes are based on the power-to-weight ratio of each car and driver; which allows even the most modest of road cars the opportunity to compete against the more modified cars out on track; with points awarded for qualifying positions and overall finishing positions in each class. Meaning that a class G competitor (least powerful) could take the overall championship title from a Pro class competitor (most powerful) by scoring more points throughout the season, giving us an overall "King of Knockhill".
Classes based on Flywheel BHP and WEIGHT including driver:
Drivers will nominate which class they fall into based on their power output and the weight of their car, including driver. You can organise an SLS power run and corner weight package at a Rolling Road center of your choice to produce a certificate of output. The Power-Run Certificate can be found in the “Download” area. Organisers reserve the right to request a competitor to attend a rolling road to certify a car's power and weight ratio and /or move a competitor between classes if deemed required, The Rolling Road used for this is Mac Motorsport in Dundee.
Qualifying - consists of a 15 minute session with competitors aiming to top the time sheets against their respective class competitors, with their fastest lap counting as their outright best time. From there, the drivers in each class then progress onto the single-lap final shoot-out.
Final - this is when the pressure really intensifies. Competitors get one Superlap, that’s right, a solitary flying lap to post their quickest time - which ultimately defines the winners from the losers. This really is, for want of a better phrase, a “One Lap Dash for the Cash”!
Road Car Awards -Road-going cars competing in standard trim, taxed, MOT’d are eligible to score points towards their own respective sub championship. The fastest road going cars from each power to weight division will be highlighted at event prize givings.
Tuning companies, car clubs or groups of drivers may also compete for the Team Trophy, consisting of teams of between 2 & 4 drivers. Here is how the SLS Team Trophy will work:
