Sebring
My best session (skip to 1:30).
Got to ride with a good friend of mine in his C8 Z51...pretty much identical to mine. His lap times are insane. I haven't raced at Sebring in 8-9 years, so I was pretty tentative. I'll share his video tomorrow. |

I have only been on the track once. I got to run a few parade laps between vintage races at an event Hagerty put on. I would love to run a few laps at speed.

Here's my buddy in his '22. Amazing driver, and it still can't keep up with the GT4 RS (green) and Turbo S (blue) ahead of him.

It sucks that the iconic Kenilworth Lodge in Sebring closed....
It was so nostalgic and reflective of times past; rumor is they are trying to reopen. Its getting harder and harder to find viable remnants of "Old Florida" now... |

Your buddy was overdriving almost every corner. Its never who gets to the corner first its who gets out of the corner first. Street tires I guess ?

Yeah, he was on Nankangs. That was my observation as well. Constantly sliding the tires like he was may work for 25 minute sessions, but he'd not fair wall in a full race.

Surgery off the table at the moment. Seems the doctor who gave me the physical didn't like the EKG. I've had an irregular heartbeat for 20-25 years, but he said a cardiologist would need to clear me. I'm beyond pissed at the moment.

BTW, your wife's experience with my current employer was spot on. It was good until it wasn't, and all it takes is one asshole of a partner to make their strongest technical asset want to find a new job. I hope she gets an earful when I drop the bomb next Friday. |
