"10 Hours of Cactus" Endurance Stock Race

Over the summer last year I held the "top fuel" street race which was every week for 12 weeks over the summer. This year we will be doing a 24hours of Daytona/IMSA style event where a team of 4 cars will run laps over the 10 weeks. Each week will be 1 lap/hour. Each of the four cars will run at least 2 laps minimum. To make up 10 laps/hours, at least 1 car will need to run more than 2 laps so there will be some variation in strategy. Does your team run 2/2/2/4? 2/3/2/3? or some other version of 4 cars/10 laps. You can claim a single spot on one of the paint color teams. This is a stock race so the main color of the stock car is the team you will be on.

Track

4 track configurations that will combine to make a single completed lap.

Race format and scoring

Each lap will run on 4 configurations/sectors that will each be timed. The 4 sector times will equal your "lap time" that week. The lap time from week 1 will your starting time for week 2 and the 4 sector times from week 2 will add to that to make your time total time.

If your team car going first will only run 2 laps, it will run once on the pit lane to get the get the driver swap time for the next driver to take over.

The total time from lap 1 and lap 2 with driver swap time is now what the 2nd driver will add to with their lap times.

This will continue until all 4 drivers have run at least 2 laps minimum for a total of 10 laps/10hours.

The team of 4 drivers with the lowest combined time over 10 laps/hours will be the winner.

Penalties/DNF

Cars are given a grace of 1g over the stated weight limit to account for variance in scales.

If a car fails to meet any of the restrictions listed above, the car will not qualify for victory. Offending cars will still race. Finish position and any prize will go to the runner-up in the case of the penalty car winning.

Cars that fail to run or fit on the track, or that happen to break during racing, will forfeit their matches. Cars that arrive broken will attempt to be minimally repaired before the racing begins. Cars that break during racing will not be repaired or replaced.

Prizes
