Black Friday 6hr Enduro at SCC

[nhdungeonracer]

We'll be limiting this to 4 teams, so get your teams together now if possible. Minimum # of drivers on a team is 2.
We are planning to start at 11am (can be adjusted if needed)
We will be using the fuel stops feature.
Heats will be 15 minutes each. We will cycle through all the lanes 6 times (30 heats)
At present, the plan is to give each team 30 chips to designate what car they plan to run. 15 will be of one color, and the other 15 will be another color. These must be turned in at the beginning of each heat. One color will represent Vintage, and the other color will represent Group C.
If you don't have a Vintage type car, there will be plenty available to borrow (right Bob? smiley: tongue)

Group C guidelines

Changing Gearz will be there. We'll have a Group C car that fits the rules, but we'll need to borrow a Vintage car for the race.

Awesome Allan!
And they'll be plenty of vintage cars to choose from. We'll be sure to give a real good slow one.. :D

[Audi1]

In that case, will a Carrera Porsche 904 GTS qualify for the Vintage category? If so, we'll try to build out a slightly faster one before Black Friday....................

Looks like we'll have a full team:

Matt
Bob G.
Jeff
Ernie L.
Allan

Bob is building out the Group C car; I'm (now that I've read your "kind offer") going to build out the Vintage car.

Looking forward to it!

No dark segments - right? No need for working lights on either the Group C or the Vintage car?

Allan

[nhdungeonracer]

No dark segments, no lights needed...

If your building a vintage, here's the link to the guidelines (look under Rotation C)

Thanks. It reads the same as in your original post for the Vintage class; unless I'm missing something..................?

Allan

[nhdungeonracer]

Doh! You're right...

Maybe I'm missing something? (like my brain sometimes) :lol:

Regarding the Carrera Porsche 904, if you can keep the width to 2" max (outside to outside of contact patch of the tires), I think it's ok...

[Audi1]

Yup, its' actually much less than 2" track width; which is probably not a great prognosis for racing performance.............we'll see..........

I had a great time, and thanks for letting me participate! It was fun racing with a great bunch of guys! There was some real nice running cars, and that track is awesome! :banana-dance:

[Smokeio]

Great race Dickie! Luckily, I had some fast team mates that carried us into second. Hopefully we'll get to do this again soon. Congrats to team"J" on their win.

[Audi1]

Great race and a great time! Thanks for organizing and hosting it, Dickie. Couldn't believe how fast you had your Group C car going............6's - crazy fast!

I'd write more, but I have to go practice for next years race...............! I think it may take a year....................
