Tyson suggested this format. Proposing such a race in all competitions for many competitors is not possible. Too many people would be required. But in a big competition, if let's say 3 top speed-cubers with about the same skills want to race each others and break records, that would be a nice show.
I'm talking about this because 1 hour rewards consistency, but with a much narrower time frame, whereas 24 hours is more about stamina, and that's not what I prefer personally (I don't read the Guiness book). Another kind of race would be cool and easier to organize for a larger number of competitors. 10 (or at least 5) identically scrambled cubes per competitor. Standard timing, no-inspection protocol, with 1 cover on the cubes before the timer starts. Gilles. PS: We would need a scrambling machine!
