I'l be doing this soon. Tempted to use a car similar to my opponents but I really want to take a GT-R '07 for a long drive - the one that I tuned for SSR5 in the seasonal events was fantastic to drive. Either way I'll report back on how I get on.
I wonder if I'll win

I will try your setup once I unlock the endurance class.
Out of curiosity, what car make/model was runner up?

Fully modded R34 Vpec II. Probably will give my B-Spec drivers something around the AI's league in the race to give Bob, and myself, a nice challenge of coaching.

I used a max tuned GT-R. Easy win but I wanted to try the car out as I hadn't up to that point.

With the update yesterday was finally able to get my hands on a Formula GT so decided to run this in race. I know its way overpowered but wanted to get a good feel for driving car with no aids using the DS2 prior to attempting the FGT championship.
Total time was around the 1 hour 33 minute mark and the 2nd place car was 15 laps behind. Would have been faster but for first 10 laps was too heavy with throttle on corner exit and spinning. Times went from 1.34s on racing softs at beginning of race to low 1.27s on racing hards by end.

Stock Audi RS6. don't remember time tho
used the ferrari 599 really cant remember my time tho, just was a car i had not gotten to drive much i tend to use cars i not driven, granted they have to be fast since i do not want to spend 2 hours or more actually racing the stone stupid AI and throwing things around my house when they drive me off the road or spin me out or simply try to drive through me entirely.
So for endurance races i have used the 599, the f430 scudieria, the mclaren f1 stealth, lotus rm, and was not until indy 500 i broke out the big guns and pulled out the minolta and the FGT.

about an hour and a half.
I used the Amuse S2000 GT1 and won by many laps after about 2 hours. With Enduros I don't try for a close race, I'm not going to risk losing after hours of driving, I just pick a sweet ride and spend the time continually trying to beat my fastest lap
+1, I did the same, I looked at what car will often been chosen for the race (cant remember the buttons name) It was all some "normal road cars" so I took my Nissan GT-R Spec-V '09 (I really fell in love with this car after i bought it for the last race in seasonal event) not fully tuned with 502 hp. i won with 3 laps in 2:12:??, I used the time like WRXLENT to improve my lap time, and with different wheel setup.
I really like the race
Edit:
just love it!

I noticed a big difference in my tire wear. The first 26 laps I took it nice and easy. After my first pit I pushed it quite hard to put some distance between myself and 2nd so that he couldn't draft me on the straight. But it did cause significant tire wear so that by the time I hit the pits again I he was seriously gaining on me.

I used the Toyota FT-86 '10 completely stock, sports hard tires.
After about 15 laps I had fallen behind ~15 seconds. I had originally planned on pitting on lap 30, but I was losing 2-3 tenths a lap and had no idea what the AI was going to do. lap 20 my laptimes had dropped from 1:13s to 1:18s, I decided to pit and try to hotlap my way back to the front. Coming out of the pits, I was 45 seconds out of 1st, running 4th. I immediately dropped down to the 1:10 bracket, and was picking up around 7 seconds a lap. I gained the lead on lap 29, and never looked back, ended up cruising to victory by about 70 seconds.

Does the replay record the whole race now ? 2hours+ ?
I recall in GT4 it stopped recording after a while.

Now, that's a race! I'll have to add the Toyota FT-86 '10 to my list of cars to run this with.
So, did you use sport hard tires even after the pit stop?
