It’s almost here!

  ——Enduro—-

This Enduro race at MSR Houston will be different than any enduro you have run!

Because the race course will change three times during the race. 

It will change under the use of a Red flag. 

Execution of this will be less than 2 minutes each.

-Standing start event.

-This 4-hour Enduro is a race about endurance and time management.  It is NOT about putting your car at risk to gain a position on track.

. —-No contact is allowed in this race.—-

Contact made will be the elimination of both cars.

-Tires must be 200 tread-wear or higher to compete, but if you just want to test faster, sure, you just won’t be in the race.

-A requirement of two drivers, no maximum. 

-Each pit-lane visit will require the car is parked for 3 minutes.

This is to calm/slow the pit sop to reduce the chances of errors while fueling and using safety equipment. 

You are expected to manage your cars time in pit lane. 

Any time shortage found will be made up by a Black Flag and 5-minute parking on the pit lane.

-The pace of cars for Enduro is limited to the track record Spec Miata time. 

The MSR is 1:47.565, so we will set lap time limits of 1:48. If a car breaks out( faster than 1:48.000), you will be black-flagged and parked in pit lane for five minutes.

 $1,000 to winners 

——Sprints——

-Each sprint will be a standing start race for 25 minutes.

-Two track layouts.

-Come one, come all

-No contact, your race will be over.

——Aussie pursuit——

Is a reverse timed race called idex or bracket race.

When executed correctly, everyone crosses the finish line together. 

Closest I have seen one is three together.  

How do we do this…. 

Well each car pics an index, a predicted lap you and your co-driver can consistently run!

Driver change will be overseen by staff as it should just be a driver change.

The co-driver needs to run as close to the same lap time as you or slower….because faster and you break out. 

-One break out lap per driver is allowed.  Break out is where you are faster than your index. Driver with 2 breakouts and their team are eliminated.

-Fueling is not allocated in the index. 

Example….

-Car A is 2 min a lap car, so it will complete 30 laps in one hour.

-Car B  is a 1:45 lap car, so it would sit at start for 7 minutes and 10 seconds. Letting car complete 3 plus laps before they leave. 

At the end of the hour they should cross the finish line together after the 30 laps.

Race starts with the slowest car leaving fand timed release of the faster cars based on their index.

$500 to winners

-First session will have a lead follow group as well.
