Classes to watch at the enduro? What class would be the favorite?

SM?
SRF? How big is THAT tank?
AS?
ITA?

Thoughts?

Don't know the SRF tank size, it might go 1 1/2 hours, if so, it'd be a good bet. Last time they ran the 24 hours @ moroso a SRF won it.

Otherwise a well driven ITS or A car could do it if the fuel works out. My guess is the SM's are too slow on that track and in 3hrs they don't get any advantage on fuel. After 3hrs at 12 @ the Point this summer top 5 were all ITE or ITS cars, first SM was 8th (no SRF's there).

With the tank-size rule in place, we will of course be running our stock tank. We will have to stop TWICE to make it - and we will be arriving at the checkered near empty.

Yikes!

Actually Andy that is a head count of drivers not cars, we could have 3 drivers x 40 cars 120 entrants (not likely though)

Do we have the ability to use the timing tower to display race position? Are we expected to keep track of the entire field from our pit space?

Maybe that is part of the 'skill' of an enduro team but as a rookie driver I can't see how you can keep track of 40 cars and their position relative to yours...

Since we have the power of transponders and computers I'm sure if someone wanted to bring a labtop or computer timing and scoring would be willing to run an ethernet cable to pit lane! I know that at the last chance enduro at the glen they do this so the positions/seconds behind/fast lap/position are all posted and updated every lap! It was awsome and worked great. I would be willing to try and contact someone about this if it interests everyone. I just don't have the labtop http://Forums.ImprovedTouring.com/it/frown.gif

Dick, does NER or NEDiv have any plans to invest in the new AMB system that broadcasts lap times over wireless to PDAs? I'd certainly be glad to add a few bucks to my entries to fund the system.

I also would be willing to pay extra to have the capability to view lap times real time via the internet and/or wireless conections...

PS: I will also tell stephen that he is to call denise!!!

no set number therefore it defaults to safe and reasonable.

Under a 100mph ? Hey Dick you seem to have a good Idea about whats happening. ? This event do we have to have the fire person to have Helmut and fire gear?
And can we request pits together to help each other out?

yes under 100. actually the problem is that it is subjective. if you startle a steward you are in trouble
>>This event do we have to have the fire >>person to have Helmut and fire gear?
no, you need a fire person but only people involved in the refueling need gear.
>>And can we request pits together to help >>each other out?
yes

For the pit lane speed limit, if there are a lot of cars & people, I think you'll find that it can be pretty hairy at 30-35mph. Doesn't sound fast, but sure seems it when you've got cars coming & going & people running across. 35 seems like 200mph when you've either got your back to traffic while you change tires or are lying under the front of a car on stands to fix something. Be kind to the crew's, no Max Papis impressions please.

Most enduros get a results sheet every hour that is handed out for us poor folk w/o lap tops. Works pretty well.
