Hello, Cameron Corns of Realistic NASCAR, the organization which holds the World TBO Championship Series in the Fall, checking in on possible interest in a 3 Hour endurance race on a to be determined track with TBO's.

World TBO Championship Series rounds were around an hour and a half long in 2011, and are planned to be around an hour and 15 min in 2012.

Update: Event Information and Registration is now public: http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?p=1696258#post1696258

I would def do it, if I found a teammate.

Pole shows those who votes what. Might make it simple to find a teammate

You'd think I'd learn after doing that so many times

This timing is horrible, it's on a Saturday, just a day before my birthday, in the evening.

And just because one of all the people can't attend it, the timing must be horrible. Your birthday timing is horrible maybe? Reschedule your birthday

Yea - time travel and one condom could solve this problem!

Likey track is Aston Historic Reverse .

Date may be moved to the 31st to allow me and my team more time to prepair for this event, but keep in mind that nothing here is official. We're going to wait on the LFSCART schedule so that we can avoid conflict there if we have the proper interest.

We're still looking into dates and times and everything. We've got to get the dates and everything to where we can have the most interest .

Anybody who's ever organized an event successfully knows this

If Cameron will let me be the Pace Car as usual, then yes. If no, then no.

@Rony and Kristi : LOL
@Cornys: Yeah baby.

It's going to boil down to who has more spare time to come up with a setup that doesn't kill the tyres after 5 laps.

For me it isn't enough...on some track TBO tyres can last 1h40 ! (South city for example).

TBO enables so many strategy so it is suc an exiting race but with only 3 hours there is only 2 possible 1hr (easy) and 1h30 (not that easy but not that hard on some tracks). 6 hours will be quite better and enables more strategy (multiclass aswell )

I have a date with rFactor at that time.

this may be an opportunity for a little come back

Event was decided to be a lap total that would make the race around 3 hours long (Making the Aston 400 (km) which is 78 laps at Aston North Reversed). Information and registration is now open . Hope to see everybody out on the 21st of April

I agree with Momo, 3h is a bit short....

Come on, sign in, admining without shouting at anyone is boring.

34 drivers here alone are stated to be interested and 0 teams signed-up for the event after almost 5 days

I've gathered 3 people (1 team)

Maybe wrong track? Maybe too short aswell? 3h is about 2 stints

I waited for a long time for a tbo endu... but 3h AS7R/TBO. Best race i did on LFS in 6 years was 24h SO4R/TBO+STD. It was 24h of pure joy!!

Feedback that I have received suggests that the track is not the issue. The length has been said to be an issue previously, but on the other hand the three hour duration was put into place to assure that the race could be done with a 2 man team. This would maximize the chances for a full grid. However as one can see the grid existing seems to be the true problem.

12 hours of SO4R with STD and TBO =
