Team Endurance

What Is Team Endurance?

Team Endurance caters for racing in teams and is ideal for groups and corporate events. Drivers are grouped in to teams of your choice and you decide how many drivers per team. Each team is hiring a kart for a length of time, this is cost effective as the cost can be divided between team members. The event consists of:

  • Qualifying session
  • Racing

During qualifying and racing, pit stops are required for drivers to change over, this ensures that each team member has at least one drive. Pit stops may also be required during the race for re-fuelling. Each team is provided with a number board that can be used for signalling to the driver on the track that he/she should make a pit stop on the next lap. Pit stops are controlled and managed by the team, this means you can adopt your own strategies.

Qualifying

During the qualifying session each team member takes a turn to qualify. The order in which each driver goes out to qualify, and for how long is managed by the team. A particular strategy may be to allocate more time to less experienced drivers. The computer lap timing system monitors each teams performance, the fastest lap time set by each team determines the grid positions for the race.

Racing

Following qualifying, drivers take position on the starting grid. When the lights turn green, the race starts and continues for a specific length of time, depending on the Team Endurance package chosen. Teams strategically decide when to make pit stops for driver change over or re-fuelling. The team that has completed the most laps at the end of the race is the winning team. Medals are presented to the winning team members.
