I say run from across the parking lot, hook up and go. I ran a 24 hour enduro once where you had to run and hook up. Of course I did not start. Lol..

Oh joy. With most of the guys in the field a 1 foot running start will require the inclusion of Advil along with the frame, body, etc. LOL

Tsk tsk. Remember I am the Techmeister. Your car has to get through tech in order to run.

I don't think the "little" scale Noose uses at tech is going to determine who is the heaviest. LOL

I hear Jersey John has a spandex running suit to cut down wind resistance.

Bruce glasses might not work, you might need to use a pair of ice picks.... or better yet a pair of binoculars like they used in "Horrors of the black museum" that had the spikes pop out when you adjusted the to focus.

More information than we need to know...
On another note... can you guesstimate how many controllers would be hooked up backwards...
We did that LeMans start once for a 24-hour race back in the 1960's...
At my age, 'running' for anything seems like a silly idea...
And, racing a slot car for 24-hrs falls into the same category...
I used to drive eight-hour enduros by myself when I was a kid. Now, it hurries me to do 24-minutes...
