- ―In-game description
The Nürburgring 4 Hours Endurance is an event in Gran Turismo 4, held at Nürburgring Nordschleife.
Based on the VLN races held at the track, the aim of this endurance race, rather than to complete a set number of laps in the fastest time, is to complete the most complete laps in the 4 hour period. The race ends at the end of the first lap completed after the checkered flag falls (4 hours + 1 lap).
The event, which takes 4 hours to complete in A-Spec mode can be won in just over 1 hour and 20 minutes if the player uses B-Spec.
Possible Opponents[]
This chart lists all possible AI opponents that can appear in this event. The "Lap Interval" column shows how many laps the opponent will stay out on the track before pitting in. An opponent that needs looking out for is the ASL Garaiya and the Opel Speedster Turbo. With their low weight and great handling, they are able to do faster laps than the much more powerful FPV F6 and BMW M3.
