Sounds to me like a 24hr regularity.

Anyone shed any light on this.


That's the BoP for certain times..

They also have 10 joker laps which they can break out of their nominated time before they get a time penalty...

Kinda makes for bland race as you can't really chase that guy 30sec in front like you would normally in a race, you kinda have to sit on your nominated time and hope they make a mistake... and before all you enduro guys pipe up I get enduro racing but still when the cars have all this pace in reserve it kinda makes it a bit boring to watch and not going to get those great chasing battles that spectators enjoy... I am glad the Bathurst 12hr hasn't done the same with nurfing the race lap times..
