No not really... I don't think anyone tried anything special for the battery changes, and no minimum pit time. The only rule concering battery changes was no body modifications. We also ran a mini enduro the same night and the previous enduro someone cut out their mini body around the battery to help with battery swaps, so that was not allowed this time. Since we only ran one car per team that helped draw in some guys not racing regularly since they only had to drive rather than have a car all set up. It was a nice turnout for the regular club night in the summer.
We ran a mini enduro also and the big thing as far as pits were concerned was the Mini's had to have a mandatory motor change, and the TA's a mandatory tire change. If you had two sets of tires he marked the second set which had to be on the car at the end. If you didn't have two sets he marked one side and those had to be on the other side at the end.
