Something like this was posted a while back, but I was looking for different answers.

 The Questions:  1.     How long do I have to run the Porsche Short Track Endurance race to equal the fame I can earn at a 10 lap Le Mans race? 2.     How do bonus fame days affect this?

 The Answers:  1.     53⅓ laps   (depending on a few variables) 2.     Not one bit! (explained below)

The problem with Le Mans is… you can only run the race once on a Bonus Fame day. Now I know it is always better for me to run the Endurance race. 53⅓ laps is about 35 minutes in the FXX K. The Endurance Champions Le Mans race takes me about 28 minutes on average. That’s only an extra 7 minutes of Endurance racing to reach the break-even point and start making extra fame!

I didn’t realize it until I had finished my Excel chart, but the amount of fame bonus has nothing to do with the laps required. Whether 20% or 100% fame bonus, the answer is the same. Well of course it is. If both side of an equation are multiplied by the same variable, the simplified amount doesn’t change. It’s been a while since I did Algebra… it made sense when I saw the chart.

 My Variables:  •    Ferarri FXX K at Porsche Short Track Endurance •    540 Base fame per lap the way I run •    10 Lap Le Mans race in Endurance Champions

 '''Other variable examples: ''' •    You run the FXX K at 530 fame/lap. You need to run 53.58 laps to equal Endurance Kings and 54.34 laps to equal Endurance Champions •    You run the Porsche 918 at 440 fame/lap. You need to run 64.55 laps to equal Endurance Kings and 65.45 to equal Endurance Champions •    You run the Porsche 918 at 440 fame/lap and are comparing it to the Ferrari F40 4 lap race at Le Mans. You need to run 34.55 laps to equal that race.
