CLC Aston 8 hour Endurance Challenge!

Post by **doc_gooney** » 26 Jul 2007, 13:16

Got a question concerning the number of drivers in a team: Say a team is not able to recruit 5 drivers, only has 3 or 4, would it still be allowed to take part? 1-man-teams wouldn't really make sense - hardly anyone is able to drive 8 hours without a single break. But I'd rather have a team with 3 or 4 drivers I know and trust, rather than being forced to add someone I haven't seen driving before just to have a full team.

THe rules state clearly u need to have 5 drivers in a team... im sorry, thats how it is, im sure if you guys tried hard enough you would be able to find 5 'trusted' people

Most of you are expecting teams to just pop up, but none of you actually take the initiative to start a team, and recruit 4 other members.

If you cant achieve this small task, well maybe you shouldnt participate in the challenge.

It was only a question, Raz... stay cool.

Another problem is, surely it can get a bit boring with 4 cars on the track at once?

And I'm sure someone is crazy enough to do a 1 man run, surely? Why not let them, and keep their weights/passengers the same as everyone else, I can't see any harm in it?

I already asked to do a one man run and I was denied. Then Raz deleted my post!

(Actually, He did ask me first, Verily Nicily infact-ily..)

Ok tonight (sorry for being late) i will close downthis topic... and give each team a participation number.... since there are only 3 teams... i am seriously considering allowing teams with less people but same restrictions. Stay tuned.

sorry guys, gonna have to drop out of it. I have far too much going on in my life with some big personal problems, and I don't need the thought of competition on my mind too.

I'll still come to the server, but once every few days for an hour until i've sorted myself out.

Raz, can you tell us already the most likely time of day the endu will start? Some time in the morning, afternoon, evening? (GMT) Would be helpful for planning purposes, because not everyone can drive at any time of the day...

Um, i have a problem, i dont think i would even be able to find 4 people that i know and trust for the endurance race, i could probly race for 8 hours straight (depending on the time)on my own, just if i had to go to the lew i could just pull over in a nice spot and run to the toilet. i would stil have the passengers and extra weight, (i would follow every rule except the 5 drivers in the team).
