Automation Time Attack/Hill Climb Championship
Clubsprint Prologue
Welcome to what is a trial run for a larger challenge I intend to run later in the year.
The Automation Time Attack/Hill Climb Championship.
I ran something like this before, back in 2019 and it was not the best. This one is slightly closer to that first run, but it is actually a test bed for a larger championship I intend to run in about October or November. But anyway, this trial run is to stress test the lowest class that I have in my document, the Clubsprint Class.
Clubsprint is the lowest, more amateur class of competition. Simple road going cars, with simple aero and such. But anyway, we’ll get past the fluffy stuff and instead, we’ll let more formal me explain more.
