EBOR-24 // YORK 24 Hour Endurance

[Northy]

Lee, you need to at least email your intention to enter a team to Derek

I might just surprise him on the saturday

I have just been putting forward the things we need to get a team going for this and WOW. This is going to be very expensive! Tyre wise, if a mini pin lasts about 40 mins of track time then u need about 40 plus pairs. If ur doing 2wd u could get away with half that for the front. 4wd is the same as rears. If your not Schumacher sponsored then its going to be a dear do. Just a thought.

[Northy]

Stu, even us 'Schumacher sponsored' drivers are not planning on using that many pairs of tyres

Remember the costs are split between ALL the drivers, and for the amount of track time you get is cheaper than normal I would say

Is there an official 2wd/4wd differentiation/class or just all same?

[Chris Doughty]

personally I would like to see 2WD and 4WD 'winners'

but also the full event winner.

Just like LeMans has LMP1, LMP2, GT and GT2

[Lee]

Northy, can we have clarification on the term "the same chassis must be used" is this classed as the car or the actual chassis plate or tub.

For example: the cat chassis can be removed with 10 screws and bolted onto another 95% pre-built car, You are still technically using the same chassis.

I would like to avoid this scenario and have to replace parts on the 'car'.

Also how much are we allowed to have pre built, for example, can we have a b4/x6 front end ready to bolt on, and gear boxes made up etc or is it a case of having to replace the individual parts at the time, right down to diff balls if needed.

Hopefully by clarifying these points everyone should be on a level playing field

I was presuming we'd be able to do what we want with every bit of the car except the chassis itself (just like euros etc) I hope so anyway, it'd be way easier.

I'm with G on the tyre issue. Surely everyone is gonna be using less tyres in proportion to the amount of track time you normally get. An hour on a set is easily done...

[super__dan]

Bradders, is there going to be an AE/CML team, if so running 2wd or 4wd?

[Bradders]

Yup! There'll be a CML team hopefully... just waiting on 1 driver then we're sorted. And it'll be 2wd, it's just so much simpler that way.... and, laying the gauntlet down here, we'll beat all the 4wd's anyway!

Cue the banter.

[Bradders]

Top secret for now... It'll be good though I counted wrong, we're 2 drivers short!

If you need someone to fill a place in I'm available not a driver that will drag you down either

[footey]

well im still available im sure i could fit in nicely with all them national winners euros winners worlds A finalists

[Chris Doughty]

its all about 2WD

[ben]

G-mag.... order a fireblade!!

[Lee]

I think the 2wds could pull it out of the bag, the transmission is bullet proof and they will probably do 3 packs of cells to 5 in a 4wd.

and we only have 2 outdrives to break

I just hope dan steers clear of the rohypnol whilst out on his jolly

[Chris Doughty]

I am looking forward to this A LOT.

I have been itching for a good enduro race for ages, I did the old Donnisthorpe 24 hour race(s) and they were fantastic!

[super__dan]

WHilst I am taking this seriously, it's one of my best mates 30th's party in York Brewery, so at 8pm I'm disapearing for a few hours
