Details of the 4hr race???

[jplracing]

Are the details and rules of the 4hr race posted somewhere and I just can't find them?

I am wanting to have some friends join me on a team, but they are out of town and we are wanting to make some plans.

Thanks

Saturday July 31st, takes the place of the SuperStreet and "normal" Endurance races.

Minimum 2 riders - Maximum 6 riders

May or may not have an "iron butt" solo rider division - still being debated.

May or may not be allowed to share bikes - still being debated.

There WILL be trophies for top 5 teams.

Everyone will receive 15 points for participating. Nothing more nothing less.

Class is being sponsored by Toyota!

This is something that is currently being worked out on the Board Forum - and is in the TOP 3 of the things we're working on right now. We'll post up the rest of the details as soon as we know.

If anyone is in need of a rider for this event, I would like to ride it. I have experience endurance racing, and can pay my way.

Now, there is finaly a real endurance race and I have to be down for the season. You all have to do this again next for sure so I can race it myself.

Hell Marty, the plan is for multiple bikes to be allowed. I hadn't really considered the idea of multiple bikes for ONE rider, but in your case I guess it would be really fun to watch....

Let's start the "Marty's Piston Fund" right now!

That's a sucker's bet if it's one of yours.

[marty]

what will the rule be on crashing? can we have a back up bike or if you fall you're out? what will the refueling procedure be, it will probably just be faster to swap tanks unless the 250 tank fits

i did some figuring and the top end will make it, but the odds of me doing something dumb and crashing will go up by about the end of the first hour

[rybo]

Honestly,

It's a hot topic in the board forum right now and I hope to have something official out to you by the end of the weekend.

Crashing, back up bikes, refueling etc are all on the list of topics being discussed.

Marty, you should ask Brewer to be a teammate as he's faster in Endurance races on a 125, eh?

[peteyt328]

I wanna play too!

hmmm, maybe i could field a second team with wyeth and cromer.

[dave.gallant]

So, this isn't sounding too much like an endurance race if you can use different bikes. So, the current discussion is for it to be ore like a relay race?? What is the baton, the transponder?

[rybo]

Kory,

As of right now we are talking about more of a relay race with a transponder exchange.

We don't have a great tradition of true endurance racing here, so we're going to give this a try this year.

Rules early next week! (I hope)

MRA #322

Actually the MRA does have a fairly good history of endurance racing back in the eighties with such riders as Doug Polen, John Ulrich and others racing with us. Not sure how this could have been forgotten. We used to have six hour races up in Aspen as well. Though the last real endurance race that we had that had a certain amount of success would have been 1995 at Mountain View Motorsports Park. That became CDR. Who all remembers that one? A 90 minute solo followed by a three hour team event.
