As most of you know team buds balls came 3rd over all and 2nd in class in yorks endurance event.
It's great fun each driver on the team donates a bit of tackle to the team ie motor
The biggest expense was tyres

Er....... WRONG! I wasn't talking about "endurance" I was talking about team relays events. 2hrs constant race, 5 man team, first one out drives the first stint, the second driver gets car ready on rostrum with tranny for second driving stint, another member does the transponder change, the driver who has just come off from racing goes out to marshal and two others are free to do maintenance of their car and it rotates in that format. So each driver ability is in order first less talented to last most talented and each stint is say 5 minutes it could even be 10 or more given how long lipo last so you end up racing the same people but in one long continuous race. It used to be brilliant fun and you really had to work a a team with pits ect...
