CAR CLASSES

Your team can choose from 8 GT3 cars and one LMP3 car. We do recommend LMP3 car only for experienced sim racers because they don’t have ABS which makes braking very challenging and they are much faster so they require more precision.

GT3 cars are easier to control and to set up so the racing is usually closer in this class. They have ABS and TC systems which make them much easier to drive compared to the LMP3 prototype.

CIRCUIT

24 Hours of Daytona is a prestigious sports car endurance race held annually at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida. It is run on the Sports Car Course layout, a 3.56-mile (5.73 km) combined road course, utilizing portions of the tri-oval and an infield road course allowing for some strategic drafting and fuel saving.

Generally, it’s an easy and safe track with plenty of runoff areas, so it’s a great place to start your endurance racing experience.

Teams

  • You need to register as a team even if you are the only member of that team.
  • You can create your own team or see the recruiting teams list here.

ENDURANCE USING ONE ACCOUNT

It’s enough to have one WSS account per team to participate in the race. IT IS NOT mandatory to have at least 2 drivers in a team!

All the teams in the race will have to make 1 (one) Long Pitstops, which will take 3 minutes each. It doesn’t matter if you do a driver swap during the Long Pitstop or not. However, you need to represent a team to participate in this event, even if you will race using one account. Find a team or create a team here.

ENDURANCE USING MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS

It is also possible for a team to race from different WSS accounts. You will need to make a minimum 1 (one) Long Pitstops or do the driver swaps. To race with your team members you need to join or create a team. A maximum of 2 drivers in one team are allowed.
