    I'm sure the KC area contingent would jump at the chance.

    Any way you could let the younger riders (kids) turn a few laps or even have a mini sprint race afterwards? Talk about a bucket list item for kids!

    Shoot, Brylin can do a stint in my place! lol

    I can't imagine why they wouldn't have a chance to get on track for a parade lap or something after the race?

    Will the two-hour LWE Endurance be before or after the 24-hour event? For those of us that don't do BBE.

    I don't see a way to have a LWE with this event unfortunately. For a race that starts at 6pm the previous day and ends at 6pm the next, there's nothing left for anything else.

    Maybe others with real race direction experience will be able to find a solution to that?

    It would be nice for LWE to have one more meaningful event (longer than 2 hours) at TWS before the doors are closed.

    I think this 24-hour event is massively cool. I work for Philips. We do tracks all over the world (Qatar, Olympics, Singapore F1 race,etc.). I will see if they would be interested in (maybe through a customer or directly help out. Doesn't hurt to ask the folks in the Netherlands.

    I have been going there since 1976. I have so many fond memories both racing and spectating.

    I have fallen asleep in the hot pit during an endurance race. Something about the sound of motorcycles racing around the track must be soothing to me.

    On topic though, this would be something that we would most definitely do. We might have to make some sacrifices earlier in the year, but this might be our only chance to run a 24 hour race. I wouldn't miss it, especially at one of our favorite tracks that will be no more.
