Another endurance race

I was alerted to this today, surprised it hasn't been mentioned before, is it a well-kept secret?

Derwent Motorsp should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Perhaps yet another event we do not need?
There does seem to be a wide speed differential in the cars invited.

Surely we need fewer meetings with more entries in each race and thus lower entry fees?

I guess we'll know soon as it's only 3 weeks away whether they have much of an entry or not?

And if a team can use 4 cars then its hardly an endurance race for the cars

It was discussed very briefly I think, but looking at cars suggested is hardly historic and by allowing teams to run more than one car not a true race or races of endurance! I did ask the question previously- would cars go into parc ferme overnight?

I think thhis event has been discussed on here before somewhere but can't remember where & it was discussed at race Retro by a couple of us, I think.

It'll be interesting to see how it goes.
