I have put the series together in an attempt to generate more interest in F18 racing in the southern area. With the 2012 Worlds right around the corner it’s almost time to start accumulating your points. The series is a best of 5 and a minimum of 3 attended to qualify. I’ll keep the schedule open for additions until December 31 at which time I’ll lock it down.

The Southern Area is defined as it is drawn here: http://www.naf18.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/USF18areamap400x3241.gif

Points awarded follow the same structure used for tracking points at the national level.
