Hi Guys, here's what we're planning for our final official point-scoring event of the year:

FRC 2024 END-OF-YEAR EVENT
  1. Race distance of 400 laps (this works out to be approx 1 hour).
  2. Saloon/sedan and sports cars only.
  3. One to three drivers per car.
  4. Three race stoppages to change drivers, based on first car to achieve 100, 200 and 300 laps (approximately 15, 30 and 45 minutes).
  5. All lap times must be over 9 sec. If any car does a time under this it will be disqualified. This is to reduce crashes and de-slots that are more likely to occur with faster cars.
Note: SSDC max race laps = 999 | max race minutes = 999

Let's have your thoughts.

I like it !
Some of my thoughts are as follows:
-three mandatory driver change pit stops but teams determine when they want to do them
-for single driver teams, pit stops must still be taken but car must be atatio ary in pits for minimum five seconds
-disabling of track call function: drivers not actually driving will perform marshaling duties
-cars may be repaired during race by drivers of the particular car, in which case he second driver will be temporarily relieved of marshaling duties
-race steward or Clerk Of The Course present to ensure compliance
