Five lucky winners have already won a pair of tickets to the Elise Trophy round of their choice in 2010. The five winners chosen at random at Brands Hatch on Monday were - Fiona Jones, Robert Puddifoot, Gary Henderson, Nik Elliot & John LaMaster.
Round 2 of the 2010 Lotus on Track Elise Trophy will see qualifying and both races take place on Saturday 17th April rather than across the whole weekend as previously advertised.
With a full grid of 48 cars guaranteed and advance tickets priced at just £8 (£11 on the day) it should be a great day out.
