WERA should have a 4 Hour at the Barber Motorsports Park GNF on October 23rd (there may be more but the WERA US National Endurance Series schedule is not up yet) and USCRA will run the vintage Big Fish Small Pond 3 Hour at NHMS on June 13th.

I am absolutely looking for a team that wants a rider for USCRA

There is no WERA National Endurance Series in 2015. Link

The Big Fish Small Pond Almost 3 Hour Classic will most likely be held on June 13. Bear in mind that we will probably set May 18th as the deadline for at least ten teams to send an entry form with a deposit in order for this event to be a go. As usual, we will honor your LRRS license. The only additional requirement is an AMA membership.

As demonstrated by the link to the WERA BBS, an endurance series suffers from a lack of sustained entries. Even before the SMI takeover of NHIS, eliminating the GT races to make room for an endurance race resulted in lost revenue. This is harder to justify under SMI.

Whatever the bikes are eligible for. Any chance you can link me to some rules and regs?

I don't think they are posted anywhere(yet), but last year they had a class for any bike, really. Basic lightweight/middleweight classes and a P-89 for the older...stuff.

P-89, LW, MW and Open classes I think.
GT/GP rules apply if I remember correct.

[cdovego]

Looks like the CMP gsxr6 would be the tool of choice for this.

I'm in on this, by hook or by crook.

Big Fish Small Pond Endurance Race

So far we have 5 teams who have indicated they want to participate in the June 13th endurance race, one of which has sent their $100.00 deposit. Just a reminder that if we do not get the 10 team minimum, we will not hold this race this year. If you have intentions of participating, please let me know ASAP. I will be at the track on Monday, May 18 to collect money from teams, but it would be helpful to have your team name and riders beforehand. I will keep you all informed as more teams sign up.

If someone has a bike that qualifies in this and is looking for a rider count me in

[Johnny B]

Four more teams registered, with deposits. One more team and the Big Fish Small Pond is a go.

[tsorfas]

Funny how people who tried this now are like I wish there was one every weekend...

[Kurlon]

I wouldn't go that far... once or twice a year is enough for me, and I only got to this year 'cause Doug's the man. We launched with what, 11 bikes total for the modern endurance? Still not a heck of a lot of draw yet.

[tsorfas]

11 bikes is $3850 in entries man.
Isn't GTO or GTU that gets like 4 entries?

[nhbubba]

I know I'm new here. But I can't imagine scheduling one of these EVERY weekend.

Obviously not dude. It's not even a dream.
Yet it is possibly the most awesome race from a riders side at lrrs
