Title: 12 Hours of Sebring this weeknd. Post by: VForcedave on March 13, 2007, 09:45:03 AM I know there is several people on this site who attend. Acura is debuting their prototype this weekend. The Audi diesel will probably dominate in its class as well. It will be the usuall huge party, debauchery, excessive drinking. Sounds like a good time.

Title: Re: 12 Hours of Sebring this weeknd. Post by: Bigscrb15 on March 13, 2007, 10:01:57 AM I really want to go, but have something else to do this weekend. Unless I get free tickets from someone I won't go. If I get tickets offered it would be rude to turn them down and I would have to change my plans, lol.
Joe, it is a great time. It is the American LeMans Series(road racing). The money the put into these cars is amazing. I think it completely blows nascar out of the water. The parties are crazy and they even bring out beads in certain areas of the track. The race lasts 12hours non stop. Tickets aren't cheap($80) for saturday, but well worth it. http://www.sebringraceway.com/ Title: Re: 12 Hours of Sebring this weeknd. Post by: kawGIRL on March 13, 2007, 10:46:13 AM We will be there ;D Thursday Night I believe :)
Our friends car is there ready and waiting to WIN! Look for the Ferrari of Houston #62 to do just that in the GT2 Class ;) This Year Risi Competizione has hooked up with Krohn Racing and I do believe the the #61 car will be there as well with Krohn's Team Drivers. I sure the Media will be around for that ;) This weeks Pics: http://www.risicompetizione.com/go/news.cfm The Race will be on Speed Channel Saturday the 17th. I need to get some Green Beads for the Race.... It's St. Pattys Day ;D Title: Re: 12 Hours of Sebring this weeknd. Post by: ucfneed2ride on March 13, 2007, 10:49:39 AM Ill be there! We went last year and had a blast. We got an RV spot near the start/finish line. Last year we stayed on turn 10 with some friends.
Its pretty much a huge party, with a race going on in the backround. haha. Lots of beads, booze and fast cars! Im not sure why it is so expensive though, I think the Rolex 24 hr race in daytona is cheaper. Title: Re: 12 Hours of Sebring this weeknd. Post by: Joedirt on March 13, 2007, 10:53:18 AM Sounds like a blast....would love to go....but a bit pricey for 3 people....yikes

That would explain the noise right? oh wait, if its a big party you wouldnt hear those damn cars anyway. Sounds like it would be a great time with a group of people, I'll have to get some car buddies together next year and meet some of you down there. I have a weekend of boating ahead of me.

They had an old school bus w/ an upper deck. They would even bring a pool table & set it up. He alway's talked about it. A big PARTY. Title: Re: 12 Hours of Sebring this weeknd. Post by: kawGIRL on March 19, 2007, 04:04:05 PM What an AWESOME Weekend ;D :ThumbsUp.gif
Risi Competizione’s #62 WON!!! the GT2 Class, Incredible finish by .00153 seconds We were hanging at the finish line and saw the battle headed for the line between the 62 Ferrari and the 45 Porsche. The rest of the time we were chilling at our camper on the track in between Turn 1 and 3, sweet spot ;) http://www.risicompetizione.com/go/news.cfm |
