now there is an idea...

the teams shells are signed by the team members and auctioned off for charity! (if they wish to do so)

Billthemina 19-12-2008 03:07 PM

Team Teeside, YEAH?!

this should be epic!

IceMike 19-12-2008 03:11 PM

u could auction off the whole car :p im sure there gunna be new chassis you start with anyways to take that much race time. thats more than my car has had all year (and not cos its bin broke before anyone says anything an im sure you will)

I think the cars will be scrap after the race, its like 2 years worth of racing in one go.

It will be fun though :D

Nah, it'll just be a case of replacing bearing, outdrives, O-rings and shock shafts. I bet the car is suprisingly in good condition still after this - you ought to run my old X-5 mate, its been through worse. :lol:

Lee 19-12-2008 04:37 PM

You will be replacing outdrives every 10 minutes anyway :lol::lol::lol:

Chrislong 19-12-2008 04:39 PM

Nah. :lol:
:blush:

IceMike 19-12-2008 04:39 PM

i wouldnt even attempt it with an old car, less chance sumat odd is gunna break, like the rule with the martial though that will be interesting. and the wheole starting the car where it stops is kewl, i would be interested to see how taht is enforced though. and also wot sort setups the teams use, the slow an steady approch or putting a faster motor in.

Can u change the motors and things through the race?? i guess that u can do wotever u want to the car really

MRD 19-12-2008 05:08 PM

Can a windows PC do a whole 24h without crashing :lol:.

I'd love to do it but I'd only feel comfortable thrashing my own car.

Have to allow for anything breaking - as we know, it can. Its going to be a race not just won on the track, but won with reliability and faster wrenchers.

Yeah i noticed that this afternoon :confused::eh?:

Team Xtreme will be there with a team i'm sure. It's gonna be an awesome event, surely a worlds first??

telboy 19-12-2008 09:24 PM

Hmm, sounds intresting. Not sure if i'd get time off from kids duty to do it though.:cry:

MattW 19-12-2008 09:37 PM

Does sound like a cool race - not exactly a world first though. There used to be a 24hr race in France years ago - Le "Touqet" or something like that i think.

Lee 19-12-2008 09:51 PM

What does EBOR stand for?
