    Default Next up - Road Atlanta Enduros

    Ready to start now looking for codriver(s) for the NASA 8 hours (December) and SCCA 6 hours (February) at Rd Atl. Anyone interested should get in touch...

    No SFI restraint yet but if there's enough interest from co-drivers to make the east coast NASA enduros viable, I'll make the compromise. My "estate" is very familiar with my feelings re: restrictions placed on what system I can - or can't - use, though.

    Hey Kirk, did you happen to read the rules for refueling for the NASA event. I think I read only 10 gallons of gas can be put in the car at any one pit stop and no dry breaks or overhead fuel rigs unless you run in one certain class. I may have read it wrong, double check me. If it is true that will stink in the fact we just purchased a rig and all the hardware for the 13 hr, or should I say 1 hr.

    Kirk just runs in that class when he does NASA enduros, and chews up EVO VIIs and the like in his puny little Golf. It is quite entertaining.

    Yup. Quick refueling means you're a "professional team" in NASA enduros, meaning we run the E0 (E-zero) class.

    So you don't run in the E3 class.

    Thats true about the quick refueling. The classes are ES and ESR for dry brakes and fueling rigs.

    We have a dry brake in our mustang at present and run ES rather than EO because of that.

    Sorry - my error. It is indeed ES and not E0.

    Sound like a great opportunity for a little side-by-side comparison. Egress times would be of particular interest.
