    Default Thanks to Brian, NER, etc.

    Thanks to Mush for his part in getting the "Little LeMans" turned into a reality. Obviously it took MANY people to get it done (of which I don't know all their names but...) so thanks to all.

    We will be back next year with 'enduro' diff fluid and a SERIOUS run at the SRF's!

    Thanks again.

    Ditto on the thanks to the people who put the enduro together. The rules were great for making it competitive and safe.

    Despite our shortened race, it was fun while it lasted.

    Thanks to all, and lets not forget the guys at the side of the track, who didn't get a "between races" break for three hours. Now, can we discuss what it would take to leave the darn black flag out of the flag quiver??

    NHIS was actually much better than I thought it would be for an enduro track.

    Long straight to check gauges and move your butt around a bit to get more comfortable, plenty of places to pass, and with the exception of the two transitions out an in to the oval (turns 3 and 10), it's nice and smooth. Doesn't beat you up nearly as much as big bend at LRP, or the never ending turn 5 on the short course at WGI.

    There's also a neat benefit in that you can see the entire oval from the top of the hill. Great to check the progress of your competitors.

    Thanks for putting it together Dick (and everybody else). It was a blast.

    OK, Thanks Brian - It was well done. Can you order the same weather for next year?
    Thanks to all the workers, as ususal, you all did a great job
    The track was good, glad we didn't use the south chicane.

    I liked it as an enduro track. My front right tire has a different opinion, but I liked the variety, and the relative safety.

    Thankfully the south chicane went unused.

    Next year, don't you dare THINK about using the chicane in the enduro!

    And speaking of next year, I vote for 3 hours as a good length. The longer enduros require just too much effort, and the smaller one hour ones are hardly enduros. The three hour length is still within reach of the ambitious club racer.

    I'll 2nd the 3 hrs-it was just the perfect amount of time! Also keep the oval-less wear on everything but the rt ft tire!

    Yes It was Good.
    Team Mazda Moto did what it wanted to do 1st thing Finish. And 2nd we thought we would run in mid pack for a place. I did have carb problems, bowls to low starved fuel in all the key places like out of oval up out of 3 down to 4 out, out of bowl and going to the straight. other than that it was fine. Man those multi colored locus on track were something hit 2 i think. one decieded to keep turning left out of the oval missed that by at least an inch. Unfortantly it collected one of its kind he was having a good race going, I think #99. Then the 200sx passed me in threeknowing i had slowed I too would have passed . Then he lost it in 11 Went around him,over the cones on pit road and did`nt look back. I loved all that needed seat time. I`m in 3 hours myself next time see ya at the Cheap date I`m going with my self. Scott Haven 09 ITA Rx7 NER
