Update for the 24 hours of America at 4 hours and 9 minutes into the race, these are the standings.

Here is a short video of a driver change, refuel, and driver weight check.   There is a minimum weight rule for drivers.  So lighter drivers have to carry extra weight.  This racer reports that he needs to have 15 pounds.  He uses a large sheet of lead and forms it to fit the seat of the kart.
