Are there rules to what you can enter? What series is it a part of? Is it even part of a series? I'm so lost, and I thought I heard someone say an S2000 is racing, which is absurd

Others know far more than me, but I think it is a privateer-only race, where you can enter GT3 and touring cars.

I saw an NA Miata also, so that's awesome.

Just absurd due to the age of the car. I love mine to bits though

There's a fucking Corolla racing this weekend. In Qualifying, it looked dangerously slow out there.

There's a load of different classes, so it's possible.

There's an Opel Manta with a fox tail on its antenna that shows up each year. I don't know if it's the exact same car each year, or what model year it is, but they haven't made the Manta since 1988.

Up to 230 cars enter, in many different classes. Here's this year's entry list .

AFAIK, the 24h race isn't part of any series's schedule, though it does share similar rules and participants with the VLN . In that respect, it's sort-of like the old pre-IRL Indy 500.
