Are there any drive time limits for each of the 3 in the A-main?

How does this whole marshall your own car work? Sorry but for some reason i have a picture in mind of 30 guys running around the track chasing their teams truck and it don't look good. Surely you don't mean by marshall your own car that if your standing at one end of the track and your driver flips or needs marshalling for any reason that the teams marshall has to run all the way to the other end? I just think that would cause more harm then good, but that's why i ask cause not aware of how this is ran.

The races will have heats. Then with the times from the heats will place you in the correct mains to put you in. It won't be 30 cars running at once. What u will have is a 3 man team 1 driver, 1 Marshall, and 1 pit guy to fix your car, change batteries, etc

That would be crazy! But funny!

In the past we have ran 1 hour enduros were each driver had to pit there own car and marshall it. With three man teams it makes it possible to have marshalls.

There would only be 10 cars in each main and 10 cars in each of the qualifiers.

Hope that I answered your question,

I think it was Chris Seitz, with 148 laps in one hour. There were only seven of us that ran that race.

Well kinda sorta, but what i'm getting at is the team marshalls gonna be spread out the course and each marshall tends to all trucks on the track? Meaning if i'm marshalling and my driver flips on his top in front of another marshall is that guy to flip my driver back on all 4 or is it my job to run across the track to flip the truck? As well if another truck flips in front of me am i to back off and allow that teams marshall to rush over there to flip it? Sorry for being a noob but tryin to get the big picture here cause we might put together a team and tend to this event.

We would have the marshalls spread over the track and cover that area, not just their team cars.
