Though dated October 17th, this layout matches the layout for the track used in the 1955 race.

This race is going to be brutal. Temperatures were so brutal on the track, most cars needed relief drivers to complete the race. Twenty-one cars began the race and only seven finished the race.

Eleven cars finished the race (improved from only seven in the original race). 
Marvin pulled away in the last 12 miles of the race, all of the cars fatigued down the stretch.
JP suffered a late spin that hurt his final position.
Cindy nearly finished the race but her car fell victim to a faulty transmission like a few cars had.
Bob and Brian, though driving subpar cars most of the day, held on to finish the race.

This race was run on the frozen surface of Mjosa Lake.
Information about the actual race can be found here at The Golden Era of Grand Prix Motor Racing.

This race was peculiar in that during its last half, no one had any problems or trouble and most of the lead drivers and their cars improved as the race went on. Again, avoiding any kind of trouble or setback was key in keeping in the mix to win the race. Though Art had only only hiccup it was enough to strand him in last place for most of the race - that, coupled with the good performances of everyone else.

​Everett began to pull away with about 40 laps to go. Brian gave a good chase but was unable to catch up.
Dave and Alex were in a dogfight for their positions the last part of the race as was Mike and JP.

This particular race was run in 1937. I used the proper Formula 1 Era chart provided in the Motorsport game. I have substituted myself and a few of my friends for the actual race drivers. A report of the real race can be found here at The Golden Era of Motor Racing website. Additional information on the history of this circuit can be found here.
