It's definitely Hookah Palace Street Race, the longer of the two circuits. This was one of my original choices when I polled the crew, as it's such a great track.
Thanks for updating the race classes, Lifted. I had no idea you couldn't race it in sports classics, oops!

No worries. Im actually glad I went into it, because as it was, there was a lot of newer cars that were left out of the old race.

I love the track too. I did some laps in the Turismo C and the Rapid GT C and got similar times. The Rapid GT C was actually a tad quicker, probably cause it handles bumps better/its easier to drive. I dont know how the Cheetah C stacks up, but there should be some variety here. Btw peds havent been disabled.

The peds are there to disrupt your curb boosting and give us slower racers a chance.

Hey Guys, a bit of extra time on my hands this afternoon so I've spruced up the Endurance Championship a bit.
There were only 30 confirmed races because of a couple of edits and changes, so I decided to add two more Nascar style tracks into the mix, making a total of four. So there are now four SST tracks and four Nascar tracks! I then realised we could have two further mini-championships out of this, so I created the SST Sprint Championship and the Nascar League.
We've already had an SST race, and this Sprint championship is headed by 2fast, using an 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 points system for the first eight places. With three races left to go... And there are four Nascar races to go, so I've scheduled things in the OP as follows:
SST: Race 3, 11, 19, 27 Nascar: Race 8, 16, 24, 32
...nicely spread out. This should also give newcomers and casual competitors something extra to fight for, and perhaps make the whole championship a bit more eXciting? The last race of the season will be race 32, which also coincides with the final Nascar race.
Not only that but the lovely Sue Murry, governor-elect of Los Santos, has decided to sponsor the SST Sprint. What a lovely surprise, so please see the OP for more details and championship stats.
AND even more news... Misfire Games is sponsoring the Nascar League, so absolutely wow!
Don't worry, you don't need to do anything except show up 9pm EST Fridays, and I'll do the admin and points in the background. Thanks to Grassy for hosting and everyone for helping out. All we need to do is finalize the extra two tracks for the Nascar League, and any suggestions very welcome.
Cheers!

Suggestions for the two extra Nascar races, please...
We've already got Lifted's 'Raceway Park', and APEX/Silver's 'Silver Raceway', but races 24 and 32 still to be defined. Thanks, guys.

Excellent work Jenkiiii!!!! Maybe ill make a nascar track... Probably not but who knows. Maybe if you can make a good one, we can use it? I tested ten tracks last night but only one was suitable for this event, as most others require slipstreaming to make them interesting. Vapid Raceway by Crimmins3553 DESCRIPTION: 0.7 Mile NASCAR Track based on Pocono Raceway Test it out if you like, and I've scheduled it for race 24/32. I have no idea what we're going to use for race 32 though, and we might have to use a repeat track.

First of all thanks to everyone for taking part, and to our crew leader and host, Grassy.
BagginZ showed us all the way with a blitzing win and fastest lap that no-one else could touch. What a pity he's no longer part of NSR. Congratulations to Skills for a very determined second place, who now takes the overall lead in the Championship with 78 points, and to Mardonius on 3rd place.
Skills also takes charge of the Up-N-Atom most podiums award with 3; with the Taco-Bomb fastest lap award currently being shared by four different people.
Next week, Feb 23, it's Pegassi Motorway in Supers, and ominously enough it's a BagginZ-created track! This is also the perfect opportunity to announce the Swallow Supercar Cup, as the first of five Supercar tracks in our schedule, please see the OP for more details. This is in addition to the Sue Murry SST Sprint (four tracks) and the Misfire Games Nascar League (four tracks).
All left to play for in this exciting championship and mini-league tournament, and hopefully see you all next week.

Although I will only be able to do every other race, I would like to ask for a rule change if possible.... I feel it should be a rule the car you qualify is the one you must use in the race. The two races I have been in there has bee at least 2 per race that have switched cars before the race do to poor qualifying. If not no big deal... thanks in advance for thinking about it at least.

I think the reason some people switch cars is because they don't have enough time to get any serious practice in, and then suddenly realise that car A could be better than car B, nothing more. I don't think there's any funny business or trickery going on. This week we're going to have a time-trial of the Pegassi Motorway track before the endurance race itself on Friday, so plenty of time to get some practice in and find the best car.
