Look at Le Mans last week, crucial ground was made and lost in the pits between all the leaders, its a crucial aspect and part of the appeal of an enduro.

And the crucial ground was made with pit equipment designed by NASA! And priced accordingly... I would suggest that in the current formative years of this race, and its newness in integration into a world tour of enduro events, that the locals may find themselves disadvantaged...
Or perhaps they shall rent one of the 14 VESA team crews for the race weekend to do the tyre changes...
