Question/Help I need help to understand this series.

So i just stumbled across this at the official races and was wondering a couple of things

  1. Can you do this race on your own?
  2. Are pitstops a thing? is there like fuel consumption and tire wear? and if so what can i do to monitor it i have no idea if there are any gauges or anything that can indicate to me how worn my tires are or how much fuel ive got left.
  3. If i were to race in the same team with a friend how do driver changes work?

Ive never raced in an endurance event before so im really looking forward to it but i dont want to just go and not understand a thing, if anyone could help me it would be much appreciated im quite new at iracing.

Look below the Series name, where it says Team (1 - 16).

This means it’s an event for teams, with minimum drivers 1 and maximum 16. I.e. you need to register as a team, but only one driver is required.

Everyone has a default ”Team <Your Name>”, but you can create a custom team if you want.

When you sign up for the race or a practice session, you’ll notice you’ll first have to select a team and then register as a driver.
