BEAC is trying a twist on the traditional Enduro format this year. Instead of leaving the Start once, getting one practice lap and then four consecutive individually-timed laps, you'll leave the Start twice, each time getting one practice lap and two consecutive individually-timed laps. So it's like two mini-Enduros. This is being tried to help address some of the concerns about the Enduro format, primarily that you only really get one chance to think about the course in detail before you drive. With the "Enduro Lite" concept you get two chances, each of which consists of a practice lap and two separately-timed consecutive laps. The total number of counted laps will be four; you'll actually get to go around the course six total times. This is event #6 in the WWSCC 2014 Championship Series. Entry fee is $25 pre-registered, $30 on-site. You can pre-register using the link at the left or here: http://scorekeeper.wwscc.org/register/ww2014. Deadline for pre-registration is 11:59 p.m. Friday 8/22. Run/work groups are per the 2014 schedule, which is here and for this event it looks like this: AM: NON-STOCK Run 1, Work 2: IA, IB, IC, WM, WP, OS, ST2, WST3, PRO2, TOAM Run 2, Work 1: WIA, WIB, WIC, MA, MB, PA, PB, PC, WOS, WST2, ST3, WPRO2, TOAM, WNOVAM, NOVAM

Joey Sim, running ST3 on an STX index, won his class and posted the best indexed time at BEAC's Enduro Lite on Sunday August 24th. Sim's win in ST3 came at the expense of Geoff Clark, who was in the familiar but not quite as strong Taco Time car for this event. Steven Hui in the M3 rounded out the trophies in 3rd. Another strong performer was Bill Zerr, driving the Focus this time, taking Pro1 with narrow margin over Dieter Beldi. Zerr's margin over Beldi in the season points standings is currently at about half a point out of 400. Glen Hernandez, who missed Enduro Lite due to being out of town for a Corvette gathering, is a close 3rd for the season, with Kevin Dietz right behind. Joe Burroughs took Novice AM in a Miata, and William Fanchier topped Novice PM in a VW GTI. The HHR crew was out again, with many of their guys running Novice and Joshua Herget taking a 2nd place trophy. HHR "pack leader" Dave Lawniczak had to fall back to a buddy's car when his malfunctioned, and ran Time Only. Once again at the end of the day, the HHR horde demonstrated the cone hauling capabilities of their cars. Perhaps only the memorable William Batts cop car has been able to fetch more cones in a single load.
