This race requires just the pre-race PP restrictions to be set. This event does NOT require a pre-race hp/min kg check or post race max weight check. All participants are encouraged to watch for the legality of their opponents cars when watching replays. The required engine parts produce a specific redline (8200rpm) on the HUD. This car is limited to Semi-Racing exhaust and the stock transmission. Any variance from those parts will produce either an increased redline, different exhaust tip or sound, or gear whine from the transmission, indicating a car is using illegal parts.

September 11. Important date.

Nice to see a banner!

Also, disappointed to see that it's an evening start time. I've always loved that Enduros were the one event at the TPRA where I could race at 3 in the afternoon rather than 3 in the morning, lol. I'm sure there is a reason for the 18:00 start time. That's 23:00 for me so I won't be done until at least 03:00 (there's always delays). Will be a tough effort to keep concentration, however, car and circuit combo looks promising.

Should be Meds. Fixed thanks.

I'm pretty excited for this one. Kinda hoping the long straights allow for some resting time. Maintaining focus just becomes a bloody chore after 30 straight laps.

I might be going to China for work, so I may not be available for this one.
