Hi Guys,
For those that don't know about the Bullrun this is one of the long standing endurance races predating WOSEC and OSEC. I have participated in this event with many different PORRS drivers. PORRS has a good and supportive relationship with The PIts. Past drivers have first dibs at entering drivers and teams.
I would like to know if anyone is interested in doing this prestigious event. It will be run with rFactor and further details will be released but the warning has been issued that entries will start soon for previous drivers.
I ran with Rob last year and would like to enter at least two PORRS teams. It will be based on the new Ausie V8 mod out.
So if anyone is interested please post here asap.
I think the race date is in November
Thanks
PORRS Team Principal Ced

I wouldn't mind running it again. Any idea when it will occur?

Sometime in November... Ced will likely know before me. LOL.
I downloaded the V8 templates though... have not opened them, but I have them!!
Talk to all y'all!

Is there a Bullrun track for rFactor? I can't find it.

They haven't released the track yet, but when they do it's gonna be a fun one ;D
I ran this race in 2003 with Nick Stine we managed to place 12th I believe. Nick took the first stent and about 20 minute into the race he lost 2nd I think it was, so it made it pretty hard to get good times after that, but we just hung on and managed to finish.

They are still tweaking the track.
We may need to try and enter 3 cars...lol.

I've been checking their website on and off, and they're still showing the 2005 version. I suspect race registration and such will occur once they update. There should be two spots open to us, since we ran two cars last year.
Ced, are you gonna handle the registration duties? Let me know if you want me to assist.
Hopefully, they'll get the track out shortly too. I suspect the track will be a bit of a bear with the V8s.
Finally, I looked at the templates (Ford and Holden) and the car at least seems like it can be painted fairly easily. Let me see if I can get some car paint ideas going. I'll plan for two cars unless I hear that we enter 3 instead. I think we should try something that looks somewhat like out GTP Jaguar.

I see Jan sent out the Pre-Registration info: Jan wrote: Ok, last year's Bullrun 1000 participants may now sign up for this years race. You do not have to have the exact same teams as last year (in other words, if you participated last year, you can go ahead and sign up now with someone who didn't participate). You may have up to THREE drivers on a team. Pre-registration will close at midnight, Friday the 13th of October. Bad luck if you don't get your pre-registration before that time... I need to have the following items filled out, and send it back directly to ME (kohlj@bellsouth.net). Mod will be the Team ORSM Aussie V8 mod. Driver 1: Driver 2: Driver 3: Team Name: Car #: Car Mfr: Model: Location 1: Country 1: Location 2: Country 2: Location 3: Country 3: Local? (if all drivers will be racing from the same physical location)
