Only 23 hours and 54 minutes left; we should consider pushing

With the title I thought this was going to end in a crash lol

Endurance sim-racing while hanging with the boys is such a good time!

[@rt_clik]

Couldn't agree more!

[@goody4686]

I think endurance racing in any form or fashion (online or irl) is extremely impressive & in a sense it’s almost like a long form iq test

[@rt_clik]

Endurance racing definitely requires a different mindset than sprint racing; you have to focus on survival, consistency, and knowing which fights you're in and which ones you have to let go. Have a plan, but be ready and able to adapt it when unexpected things happen...and they always do. Thanks for watching and for the comment.

I legit laughed out loud at this. Good stuff!

AKSHUALLY ☝️🤓 Best time for pushing in endurance, especially multiclass, is when you have clear track in front. And when the car is still undamaged and is more controllable. Looks like it would actually be a good moment for some hotlapping.

[@33driver]

aint no way, I actually raced in this as car #400 and it was a pretty fun race with the 963's and the rsr's, I hope you guys had also a great race!

[@rt_clik]

The race had its challenges, as any endurance race does, but we drive to have fun...and fun was definitely had!

[@33driver]

@@rt_clik yeah definently, it was a pretty challenging endurance race and my first actually

[@rt_clik]

Congratulations! There is no way to adequately describe the feeling of competing in and (hopefully, surviving) any endurance race, but the first one is always special.

How do you take part in this

[@rt_clik]

This particular 24-hour race was hosted by PCA Sim Racing. One either had to be a member of Porsche Club of America and a driver with pcasimracing.com or a member of one of the other racing leagues invited to participate. Beyond this race, iRacing has several special events scattered throughout the year, many of which are road endurance races (iracing.com/special-events).

Yes. It was a 24-hour race.

@@yesh420 There were a total of 31 cars (across 3 classes of cars) on-track for this particular race, each with up to 4 drivers rotating driving responsibilities.

[@user-qo5mq1wy8y]

sorry if it sounds stupid but is it non stop

[@rt_clik]

A great question. It is a continuous race for 24 hours, but cars must stop every 45 to 60 minutes for fuel. Some stops include tire or driver changes. Damage repair can demand longer stops, depending on how bad the damage is.

[@user-qo5mq1wy8y]

@@rt_clikthe drivers how do they sleep

[@rt_clik]

We schedule driver stints to allow for breaks long enough to get some rest.
