Hi Fran,
For a starter on this, there are several questions:-
- Have many drivers (skatersare allowed per team?
Mileage expected and therefore 'fuel consumption':-
- Should it be measured by eating/drinking capacity?
- or, start weight/finish weight?
If I remember correctly, the LM course is 13.8km:-
- Will there be 'onboard' a facility for the imaginary mechanic?
What would you estimate the miles/kms to be covered by a team of say 100 members?
To the previous reply by 'Amazing 1' I think I can concur 100% with his comment.

Basic rules are:
Max 10 skaters per team
Over 16 only (over 35 counts as a veteran team!)
Must be able to brake and turn (no beginners)
There is a 300m qualification run to decide grid position
Traditional LeMans style start (ie run across track and put on skates)
Baton relay/chip timing
There is also a "Drivers" Parade in town
It is run on the smaller circuit (Bugatti?)
Previous team results were:
Winner - 168 laps - 702km distance
Last - 54 laps - 225 km

Do they bring out a safety skater at the first sign of rain?

Well, if you devide 702 by 168 you get 4,17 kms. So yes, the Bugatti circuit ;D

So yes, the Bugatti circuit ;D
Hmm - coming down from Dunlop bridge and making that right hand corner could be interesting!!!
At least if it isnt on public road there wont be any drink/skate rules. 8)

Given it only cost Euro 520 to enter a team, it is difficult to resist ;D

But its over 18 mph. You can't do that without an engine (or cliff)

Apologies, I didnt get the right set of results. This is the result for this year's winner ... its actually further and faster!
"1 LSC ROLLERS ELITE Grid Position: 3 Laps: 200 Total Distance: 836,00 km Total Time: 24:04:04.24 Average Speed: 34.74 "
These were last place - awww, bless - I am sure even CA could beat this lot!:
"573 MANO2007 Grid: 1048 Laps:13 Total Distance: 54,34 km Total Time: 24:09:57.96 Ave Speed: 2.25"

The campsite is within the 24H track facility, it is watched over and has restrooms and showers. It is accessible for 5 euros a person, for the whole weekend (pay at the entrance). Campers vehicles get in for free. The campsite does not have electricity, but BBQ are allowed (usual precautions compulsory). Dogs are forbidden.
€5 per person for the weekend and vehicles free. For that you get watched over.
BBQs welcome but usual precautions compulsary. What precautions?.
These skater must be a dodgy bunch, we don't need watching over and we are not asked to take precautions with our BBQs.
Stay away these people are bad assed Mo Fo's ;D
And another thing. Why do they get Restrooms and all we get are Bogs?
