- "A 4 hour race for Mazda fans where successive generations of Roadsters compete for speed."
- ―In-game description
The Roadster 4 Hours Endurance is an one-make endurance event in Gran Turismo 4. The event is restricted to the Mazda Roadster/MX-5/Miata, driving for four hours around the Tsukuba Circuit.
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 four 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.
