What little info I found is here. I do not think the promotion has been very good. http://www.wor-games.com/docs/2010/WORGamesIntentForm.pdf

We are planning on it. That is if the car is ok after the Nelson 12hrs next week

Price seems a little high. People could do the Nelson Ledges race (12hrs vs 8hrs) for a lot less.

does not change the fact that it is high. I wonder how many cars will enter and pay 900

This is the first Enduro like this in a long time and if enough support is shown next years entry will be less ,heck if we get enough this year we may be able to discount .......Please remember this is Mid-Oh one of the finest facilities around . Come join us for some fun and run the double regional for the chwap price of $200 on Sunday the 17Th

So the 8-hour will be held 2 weeks prior to the Charge of the Headlight Brigade?

Wow, what a terrific time to ensure that both events lose entrants.

Don't get me wrong, I love the idea that there is an endurance race at Mid-Ohio, but did anyone consider the existing and traditional events when scheduling this thing?

while it is high entry, we are planning to run. I agree, Mid-Ohio is first rate and to run an endurance race there is tough to pass up. I agree it might hurt going against the 13hr a few weeks later. Teams who do not want to travel to VIR (like us becasue of the tow and date)have another option for a race in the fall. I hope it does become a popular event. I have always said it would be great to do a points series between 12hr at Nelson, the 8 at Mid-Ohio and maybe a spring race somewhere in the region.
