Todd,

If you don't run the enduro by yourself, your friends are going to mercilessly tease you.

<edit> Aaaah, they're gonna tease you anyway.

How is that saying . . . oh yeah . . . no sh*t sherlock! I tell myself it is because they love me so much

Fat chance

Agree wholeheartedly with others ... do it.

Also agree with getting faster. Recent Zippo enduro at the Glen clicked off fastest lap at #23 of 23 in a 60 minute enduro

C ya there (maybe)

DO IT,

For 90 min you can fill the tank and be fine.

for 120 min you will need a 5 gallon fillup.

I have done both 90 min and 120 min enduro's solo. The only word of caution is if your car uses a bit of oil I would consider having a crew member check and add oil if needed. 90 min (85 min of racing) is alot if the car burns any oil.

Are we taking bets on how many times Todd will get lapped in 90 minutes?

So Todd - what's the decision?

I sent you a PM, so I'm not going to repeat it.

Yep I won my class in my first ever enduro and battled a D RSA from the drop the green till pit stops and then again once our pit stops were done. I think we finised the 90 min with in about 2-3 seconds of each other. That was my 3rd race ever (if you count weekend's fun race as real race)
