TORA Endurance Championship - General Discussion

One of the longest running TORA traditions.  Let's talk about the next season.

What's the reason behind only the Audi being available for P class?

It's time!

Rules state max of 5 drivers per team, registration page and template state 4 drivers max per team. Just to confirm is it 4 or 5?

I would assume four since there are only four stints.

For each event do all the drivers in the team have to do at least 1 stint? In other words can a given driver remain a part of a team if he races in some of the events but not all?

This would be helpful to know.

I'm looking to take part as an extra driver in a team as I can't make all the races.
I'm guessing that means I would only score Drivers Championship points for the races I make (if there is one, no mention of it in the Rules & Regs) but that the team entry would always score Teams Championship points?

Should be 4 I believe. You can switch between events, but one driver is locked to a car for the season.

Exactly. I love enduros especially after the 24h race, and I know I cannot make the last two races because of athletic commitments, but I don't know if not doing any stints in those events means I'm not eligible to be a part of a team.

Are all cars STOCK? Cant see upgrades for any so i presume they are all Stock build.

Be patient. Builds will be up soon

Not Exactly. If you have a team of 2, one driver could do Stint 1 and the other does the rest, a team of 4 every driver could do 1 stint, depends on how the team wants to play it.
Example.
2 Driver Line up: Stint 1: Driver A, Stint 2: Driver A, Stint 3: Driver B, Stint 4: Driver A
4 Driver Line Up: Stint 1: Driver D, Stint 2: Driver A, Stint 3: Driver B Stint 4: Driver C
and So on
As long as at least 2 Drivers drive from that Specific car it doesnt matter how the team is put in order.
So you can have a team of 3 but only 2 drivers are racing at certain events is allowed, the thing that is NOT allowed when a team brings in one driver only to do qualifying and does not race

I can't find it in the rules, is there no limit on double stinting? As in, 1 driver is allowed to do all 4 stints?

^^^^^

No driver can do all 4 stints. If you read the Registration it's in there saying between 2 and 5 drivers. If any drivers try to race on there own they will not be able to and will not be invited to the race..YOU NEED TWO drivers to participate

From the rules and registration it's not clear if all drivers signed up for a team, that they all have to participate in each round. You might have a 4-man team, but only 2 can do the 3rd round for example. And what if only 1 driver can make a round, what then? It doesn't explicitly state anywhere that 1 driver doing all stints is not allowed. Personally, I prefer it says something like no double stinting allowed between Stint 2 and Stint 3 (which wouldn't be a bad idea considering Lobby 2 at Le Mans was already far behind after only a few stints).

There are no plans to outlaw consecutive stinting. 2+ drivers are mandatory per car. Anyone attempting to drive solo will be barred from racing that event.

No, you don't have to race, but all drivers who qualify the car are mandated to race a stint.

Lookin to join a team as a back up driver on xbox.

hey bud in case you didn't know the game is cross platform. We can play with everyone lol. Also try posting in this thread: https://toraonlineracing.forumotion.net/t19240-tora-endurance-championship-driver-recruitment

You may have more luck there.

Is there a rough idea when the builds will be available

VPR Torque wrote:Is there a rough idea when the builds will be available

"Soon."

Do you always need 2 drivers to qualify or can you still race if 1 driver qualifies and the other driver does 1 stint?
