The Team Concept:
The American continents vs the World!
A recreation of the classic Ford v Ferrari Lemans showdown from the 1960s , but now with modern cars.
If you race in our NA timezones you will be racing the Ford
If you race in our EU timezones you will be racing the Ferrari
There will be a casual "team" element to this, to see who wins, the Americas or the World, Ford or Ferrari!
GUEST RACERS:
We usually have a fun class for some of our staff members/veterans to drive around for a bit of fun. They can sometimes be slower than the slower class, or weird or fun.
The guest class will be announced closer to the date

¶ What are the rules?
¶ What's the deal with the Guest Car?
A fun, intentionally slower car driven by staff — great for practicing safe multiclass overtaking.
¶ Any prizes?
Maybe. Nothing official. We’ve been known to send small surprise prizes to past winners.
¶ Safety Cars or driver swaps?
Nope. Keeping it simple — no RealPenalty, no swaps.
¶ Night racing?
YES, for this race it seemed to fit the theme to have the timescale go through 24 hours for the 2 hours of the race, so it will go through night-time!
Thats why Pure or Sol is required with CSP
¶ Voice Chat?
Yes! Communal voice chat is available in the Discord
- Use push-to-talk (bind it to your wheel/controller).
- Keep chatter minimal during qualifying and race.
- Consider binding a mute button for focus.
¶ Teams or driver swaps?
No teams, no swaps — too many technical hurdles. We’re keeping it smooth and simple.
¶ Need help?
Open a ticket in the Discord here. For urgent issues, ping the @Endurance Organizer role.
¶ Will there be pit stops?
Yes — at least one mandatory stop. Strategy may play a role! the pit actions order is F so fuel first, then when that is done, Tires and repairs at the same time. So if you want to optimize your pit strategy remember that you may not get a tire change for "free" when you are refuelling!
¶ 🧠 Philosophy
We’re trialling new processes to streamline race setup and reduce technical hurdles. The goal: more time racing, less time troubleshooting.
