Question - does anyone know all of the 24 hour motor sport events currently organised for 2005?

So far my list has Daytona, Nurburgring, Le Mans, Spa then we have 2CV, a bike race at Snet in June.

Can include truck, jet ski, quad, etc , etc.

The Belgian 2CV clones (VW Fun Cup, I think it's called) have a 25 hour race at Spa, then there are the 24 hour bike races at Spa and Le Mans. Thunderhill in America has a 24 or 25 hour race in December.

Oh there used to be a lawnmower 24, but I'm not sure if that's still going. There was even a class for push along mowers in that...

The British Lawn Mower Racing Association website
www.racemower.co.uk has a 12 hour race on its events calendar for July 2005.

Apparently they celebrated 25 years of racing in 1997 by having a 25 hour race!

I think the Thunderhill race is 26 hour. But could be mistaken. I'm sure its more than 24. Probably 25. I know someone who's raced in it. I ought to ask I suppose!

Why the question in the first place??? Thinking of entering them all????

A mate of mine came 4th at Thunderhill in '03 in a Caterham.
