Pit stop times in the 10 minute range (as opposed to seconds in F1) really throw the ranges wide open doe.

I zoomed in on the line graph so it shows about 80 laps instead of 300. The "unlucky strike" BAR F Honda retired early in day 2. (orange line)

we are the white line and the blue line was a 80s diesel rabbit that can run 10 hours on one tank of fuel. They were pitting every hour just to change drivers.

10 hours on one tank?! Damn.

Are the driver changes compulsory? (I haven't read up on LeMons rules)

A few years ago one guy did the 25 Hours of Thunderhill. ALL 25 hours, pitting only for fuel, tires, brakes, or whatever needed to be fixed.

Alonso picked up the pace today. Overall mph is a little slower than yesterday.

Join the lemons and chump forums and look for open seats for tracks close by - or ones far away you'd like to try. Laguna Seca, COTA, Watkins Glen, Daytona, Sebring, etc..Local tracks would be VIR, Pitt Race, NJMP, Charlotte. No Summit Point anymore.

Hm. Esteban could grill but I'm not sure we won't need him to tow the car back with his bike.

These are the only two skills I'd assumed you had.

i'd love to do it but man i would be a liability out there. i dont know proper protocol/etiquette for those kinds of events and would probably **** off half the field in a couple laps. plus laguna seca is no lance stroll

the woman wants to go karting for date night so i got that going for me, which is nice.

shop gave me a mazda 6 loaner car, did my usual middle lane to off ramp dive and the rear end stepped out on me. i parked it and i could smell tires. i think it's been in an accident or something. maybe it's just **** tires, they didn't make a sound, just felt greasy when pushed. or maybe it's just the low profile sidewalls. i'm used to balloons.
