    I'm thinking of series 24 hours of le mans in LM racecars
    I'm thinking doing it over 6 weeks and each race to setup as 4 hour endurance
    I'm also thinking the tyre wear to be on normal and track start time on 15:00 time progression to be on 1
    so after 4 hours the time on will be 19:00 for race 1
    for race 2 start time will be 19:00 and so on until all 6 races are raced

    i'll have to get @VARDZ help to test cars so we can use many cars in this series

    please let me know what you think

    i also like to add you can have a co-driver as long as you the main driver is in a higher div then your co-driver

    I love enduros, and theoretically we could do a 24 hour race, but splitting it into 4 is a top idea.
    @MINT_GTR Want to team up again?

    Last year @t_b_williams hosted the 2.4 hours of Le Mans, warrior's got his 3 hours of Bathurst race and my 2 hours of Sierra race which desperately needs numbers.

    Sounds interesting. For me however, a 4 hour race every week would be too much. It would have to be at least a weeks break in between

    I like the idea, but dont have the time unfortunately.....unless i told the missus i was going to, divorce is expensive ive been told......but then would...........aaahhhhhhh, sorry will have to pass. :rolleyes:

    One suggestion though, IMO you will need to seed the entries so you have 'even' teams.......div 1 driver with div 6 working into the middle so the teams are as even as you can get them.....For me, loosing 3 seconds a lap over 4 hours will get a bit tedious.....Imagine having one of the aliens passing on to a team mate with a 30 second lead, and having a rival team whos alien has just jumped in looking to make up the time.....and everything in between. That would make a cracking race....

    IMO of course. :)

    i think @flashfirst had the same idea
    put a div 1 driver with a div 6
    a div 2 driver with a div 5

    Something along those lines......because everyone has different pace you can never get it perfect. If you like i can help you with the seedings when you get them in to make the teams up

    cool :thumbsup:
    if we could get a div 1 driver who lives close to a div 6 driver get then to use the same rig it would good but that's a bit hard to do at this point

    it would be easy for say @Blindman who i understand is a div 2 driver now and have @Kart-No-1 who is a div 5 driver to use the same rig because they live down the road from each other
