Nissan R90C - 21 July 2007 2007 24 Hours of Le Mans - 16 August 2007 List of 24 Hours of Le Mans fatal accidents - 15 November 2007 Palm Beach International Raceway - 19 April 2010 The primary tasks of the project will be to produce articles about the basics of sports car racing. These articles will contain the most basic information about the subject like history, champions or winners, locations, notability, and so on. The following are types of primary articles that should be dealt with first, with examples: Sports car racing Individual racing series Example: Japan Le Mans Challenge Sanctioning bodies Example: Automobile Club de l'Ouest Individual races with a long history or notability Example: 1000km Nürburgring Racing circuits with a long history or notability Example: Sebring International Raceway Manufacturers with a long history or notability Example: Lola Cars Racing formulas Example: Group 5 (racing) Sports car technology and design Example: Gurney flap Sports car racing terminology Example: Endurance racing These tasks are more in-depth, providing a wealth of information about specific areas of sportscar racing. These will take much longer than any of the primary tasks due to the vast amount of wealth necessary to complete the task. The following are types of secondary articles that should be dealt with if you have specific knowledge about the large amount of information necessary, again with examples: Individual championship seasons Example: 1992 World Sportscar Championship season Individual races in a season Example: 2006 24 Hours of Le Mans Notable racing teams Example: Ecurie Ecosse Notable driver biographies and histories Example: Johnny O'Connell Racing circuits that lack a history, but are still notable Example: Masaryk Circuit Notable racing cars Example: Porsche 911 GT1 Manufacturers that lack a history, but are still notable Example: Dome (constructor) Engine builders that are separate from chassis manufacturers Example: Judd (engine) Adding photographs for articles Example: Image:Gtp sports cars.jpg Other tasks that do not fit into primary or secondary categories are ones that can be done simple in free time, and have no set structure. This includes correcting typos, mistakes, and grammar errors in articles, as well asproofreading or proposing questions to editors regarding facts or substance. If you create or find another other useful tools that you feel the rest of us should know about, feel free to add them to this list. If possible, inform others on this page's talk page so that some do not miss it.
