OVERVIEW *THIS IS NOW FREE TO ENTER with a recommendation to donate to our just giving page for the event* Welcome to the SOP x BOA Collaboration 8 Hours Of Silverstone charity event. If you are signing up or are signed up please join the event server for full communication with both communities: (SOPxBOA 24 Hour server) SOP & BOA have teamed up to bring you this charity event and the chosen charity is MIND, Mental Health is still very much at the forefront of things and this is very close and personal for many of us both hosting and competing in the event. Many of us as sim racers use this platform to help our own mental health as its brings a sense of togetherness, community and support when we race in a team together or against each other. So we wanted to end the year with a massive positive and raise awareness and money for this great cause.
