    Iv dont them all. Quite easy really. turn it on b-spec (or do a few laps yourself then b-spec it) Then its just up to leaving your ps2 on for a day. I hope its not in your bedroom because it kept me up . Any how here is an ok list of what you win. in every race. Linky

    Good Luck

Changed to B-spec at first stop, and the B-spec driver has stayed in the lead. About 1 hr 30 in so far. The 2,500,000 credits makes it worth it and there is very few A-Spec points (just 8) avail with the Merc, so I don't really feel its cheating. In the real 24-hour races there are three or four drivers per car. Since one can switch between A-spec and B-spec that's what I'll do. I'll take over and do some laps.
    Looks like you got a good setup there .. the 190E must be of similar spec to the other cars, keeps it exciting. B spec-ing certainly inst cheating .. if its there, use it. As you said, in real endurance races you have more than 1 driver. When i A spec it ill be switching around with a couple of friends .. No way will i be able to stay seated for over 2 hours

    Well, finished that Nurburgring 24 hour race I was B-specing. I drove about an hour myself. My Merc 190E eventually finished 7 minutes ahead of the second place Merc 190E Evo. Only 1,250,000 credits though, but the Polyphony F1 makes up for that.
    I'll have to do the La Sarthe 24hour races sometime.

    Endurance Races

    Hi there,
    The endurances are easy as pie in B-Spec. Get a fast car, and win the Nürburgring Nordschleife 24 hour race. Start the race then go to bed, and 24 hours later you will win 1.2 million, and be the proud owner of a formula one.

    Then in B-Spec you can win ALL endurances except Sarth 11, you will need another car wich I forgotten already.

    Hope this helps

    I just did my second 200 mile endurance race, the first time I used a touring car and I had to pit so often I only got about 4 laps before I had to pit. The second 200 mile race I used a Le Mans racer. They are alot more effective. I got alot more laps to each pit with the LM racer. I recomend you use a LM racer with superhard racing tires on the back and medium on the front. Tire wear isn't that bad and handling is pretty good too.

    When you do Sarth11, make sure you use the MINOLTA in B-Spec on 3

    Have Super hard tyres at the rear and hard tyres at the front.

    You will win it easy.

    There is absolutely no point in doing the 24 hour races by yourself till

    Day to night, Night to day with Dusk and dawn
    Weather Changes
    Mechanical Problems ect
    Tire wear is annoying also, Cars triple stint at lemans but only get 1 stint on a set BS

    lol!!!!!

    i cant imagine how much space 24 hours would take up, but its probably quite a lot.

    I've just finished all of the Sarthe endurance races.

    I actually did them in reverse order (II then I).

    It was easy. Use the formula polyphony (won from the Nurburgring 24hr) to win Sarthe II (I did it with standard racing mediums on....it pitted every 3 laps, but was soo quick round the track that it was still 9 laps up on 2nd place by the end!).

    Then I used the Audi R8 that I'd won for that to do Sarthe I. It killed everyone else on the track. The R8 rocks! Can't wait to try it round the ring.... Aussiesteve has the right idea.....Super Hard rears and Hard fronts. Pitted every 7 laps (but the tank was empty by then anyway!). Won it by 7 laps.
