From June 12th to June 13th "Sim-Racing.de&qu
ot; will be hosting the legendary 24 hour race in the beautiful area of "de la Sarthe" for the fourth time. When we organised this event for the first time in 2007 it was the first time that somebody decided to meet the challenge of a 24 hour race. Looking back, the decision to do so proved to be the start of something new for the whole simracing community and today no sizable organisation does without endurance races. This is something we are truly proud of! This year we hope to able to mainly avoid disconnects at the driver swap due to new insights that we recently gained. Nevertheless every team should be aware that the risk of dropping out of a race can never be completely avoided. A fact that is no different in real racing. While the "1 cent parts" that lead to a technical failure in real motorsports, virtual racing has to battle hardware performance and problems that are due to Internet connectivity.
The event will be a 24 hour online race based on the racing simulation "rFactor" and will be run in 2 vehicle classes (LMP1 and GT1). Sim-Racing.de will provide a synchronisation tool that has to be used by all participants. Details will be posted in the forum. They will be set in such a way, though, that the overall performance will differ only marginally in regard to lap times. As has been the case with all events hosted by Sim-Racing.de the race will be broadcasted live on the Internet from start to finish in German and English.
