| Endurance Racing is a team effort requiring at least two riders and pit
crew to complete a 3, 6 , 8 or 24 hour event. Events are held internationally across North
America as well as regionally. In the past, endurance races where a test of a machines ability to complete the timed event. Today they have turned in to lengthy sprint races requiring riders and equipment to be in top shape. Pit stops and a rider change are usually scheduled every hour

| In 1996 I rode the FZR400 #191 Jamie and I finished 10th in class out of a field of 50
bikes
My most memorable experience: When I decided to pass another rider on the right just as Don Monroe, National Champion decided to pass me on the right. We had a brief coming together. I lost my entire front brake assembly from my handlebar, and entered the next corner without brakes. |
Seen here passing on the outside after realizing earlier in the race just how fast you could really take this corner without brakes! (see sidebar) |
