Endurance Race Introduction and Regulations.

Introduction

Hello and welcome to CCRO's Endurance racing events page, In this topic I will tell you a little about our plans and what you need to do to take part in one of our endurance events.
Our endurance events are going to be single manufacturer events with 1 set build however they may sometimes be multi-class which will give you the option of 2 or more cars in 2 or more classes.
Our endurance races will never be less than 1 hour long or 50 Laps of a circuit.
The aim is to have some fun and take away the huge "dash to the end" feeling we get in public lobbies or in our usual sprint styled events.

We will be offering everything from 50 Laps at medium size tracks like Laguna Seca and Mugello to 50 laps at Nordschliffe. Once I have sorted out the best way to run and score the event we also intend on running the 12 hours of Sebring and the 24 hours of Le Mans.

Rules

Once an event is posted it will also come with its own set of rules and regulations which are specific to the single event. However all of CCRO's typical and basic rules will still apply during these events.

All listed rules must be read before sign up and should be taken very seriously.

1. Anyone who signs up for an event and fails to take part or quits without good reason will be given a 1 event suspension.

2. Anyone found to be cheating or not following the rules set for each event will be delt with dependent upon the seriousness of the offense.

3. ANYONE who decides they are board half way through an event and takes it upon themselves to ruin someone else's race by being immature, selfish or just plain silly will be banned from any future CCRO events. (i.e ramming others, driving around the track in the wrong direction...etc)

Count me in! I think endurance racing will be a welcome change to the weekly sprint races. Any idea as to when the first event may take place?

im in as long as it dont clash with something im doing

This sounds great, as long as it's on at a time I can do

It will be on the first Sunday after the Grand Am Series at about 2pm UK time and will last a little over 3 hours.

im in then andy im free that weekend

I will post more information in a separate thread about the event it will be a 50 laps of lemans with 3 cars to choose from: 1 LMP1 car, 1 LMP2 car or 1 GT2 car.

I can make that time too!

ill see what i can do, if im free i might race. Might wait till something not high spec comes up. Might wait till abc's series comes up.

Phobes, the GT2 cars are quite easy to handle just need to get used to driving at a slightly higher speed. But nothing much harder then what we're running in the GrandAm

And I'll try at least one race out. If you can fill the spot with some one more reliable then go ahead. But I can't guarantee I'll always be able to attend

once i have got the practice in the high spec cars I will race, dont want to spend 3 hours in a car that I'm not comfy racing yet. Plus i dont have much practice time at the moment either.

@Jez - The endurance races will be stand alone events, so reliability will not be an issue. If you can make the event then just sign up.

I'll try to join up in these, assuming I can get some live.

count me in pal it will be nice to do something that dont involve nascar.

I'm up for some endurance racing, though would we turn damage off, as no aero in LMP cars is a little challenging to say the least, I should know, spent about an hour and half with 90% front aero damage round le mans.

Also my endurance races usually involve chasing BouFushidara for most the race

I'm building myself a bit of a fan club here. First Sam and now you Coyote :p

Well every racing driver needs their fan club, me and Sam are just the hardcore, we've already got our RVs parked on the infield of sunset for this weekends Grand AM

hey guys, when is the next endurance race. since I last commented I have been practicing in the R2 class cars. and im loving it, specifically using the Opel touring car. If theres nothing coming up anyone fancy running some hour long events or something.
