    @LITTLEBLACKO942 has opted to start on the left side of the grid.

    Race will not be streamed.

    Points system adjustments:
    ROOZ points however 15th scores no points.

    Refined Reserve Driver Rules:
    If a main driver returns to their seat after the reserve driver has already qualified for the race, providing there is room on the grid, they can keep their car however their points scored will not count towards their manufacturer.

    Local Team Qualifying Adjustments:
    In a local team, any driver that qualifies must now qualify at their allocated handicap, not the lowest rated driver’s race handicap.

    Technically you can qualify whenever you like under LCS before Saturday.

    @Cameron Neane Mint is now a chance of making it, if he does and qualifies in time, would you like a different car? Matt will take his Porsche back.

    Hmmm willing to compromise despite the aggressiveness lol. Will file some new regs in the meantime.

    Anyway, putting the feelers out there as I’ve had a few messages regarding this, but a 3 hour solo stint is fairly extensive, would we be comfortable in allowing a compulsory 5 minute pitstop during the race (which would be a scheduled one) in order for drivers to take a bathroom break? If everyone is honest, this wont compromise the race results.

    Tbh I hate when races put these in, seriously dull 5 minutes that breaks up the flow and leaves you guessing who you are actually racing. Mandating a narrow pit window then ruins strategy options and as we've seen there have been some great strategies run last season.
    That said, you gotta do what you gotta do to run a series successfully for all comers, its a pretty popular solution for 2.4 hr races on GTP.

    Ditto, have done 3 hours on my own before and it's a tough stint be very manageable.

    No way, if you can't handle the solo stint find someone else to drive with. If you can't find someone else then just tough it out. Plenty of measures you can put in to prevent tiredness or a full bladder. Sitting in the pits for 5 MINUTES would make everyone feel like Murphy for no reason

    I don't really see why we need the bathroom break, just use it before and after the race and you should be fine. :)

    The endurance is all part of the challenge, and a big part of the reason I joined this series.

    If it were something that was seriously compromising the entry list and seeing people quit mid-race, and you had no other option but to introduce something, then my response/thoughts are:
    1) 5 minutes is far too excessive! It doesn't take 5 minutes to pee. :confused: I'd say 1 minute max! (I used to DJ, so I had a literal timer on me every time I went lol)
    2) Don't schedule it. You may as well break it into 2 sprint races if everyone has to stop at the same time.
    3) You're just adding to your own work load in attempting to police it. Not to mention coming up with fair and just penalties

    I'll settle for a 2 minute bathroom break. It doesn't need to be a scheduled one, it just needs to be messaged Jono post race so that he can check the timing of it.

    At first glance I liked the idea of of a break but I'm sure with a bit of thought the problem CAN be solved or BOTTLED.... all a part of the 'enduring' bit....
