    Marcus.

    I think the other guy was "Bobcat" He lasted I think 16 hours in an RX7!! (Not sure I could last 30 mins in one of those!) I saw at about the 16 hour mark

    "Hey Bobcat aren't you supposed to be driving?"

    "Ahh.......... I became delerious and my Depends was chaffing!!"

    ewwwwwwwwww!!

    I think the car instrumental in the Mercedes crash at Le-Manns in the '50's that killed something like 80 spectators was attempting to drive 24 hours by himself!! That didn't work out so well either!!

    John you got it! Bobcat tried it in 05, and made I think 19 hours, he lost the right front wheel when he had a hub failure (Very common on those first gen Rx7's) and it took too long to get towed in and the problem fixed; his body went into shock from the cold. As a former first gen rx7 pilot, I can tell you doing that 19 hours was harder than all 25 in a Miata... that is not to slight Steve (or DDG) in anyway.
    Donnie Edwards tried it this year also in a spec E30.
