Anything special going on at Sebring this year? I mean in the same vein at the Daytona or Mitty get togethers.

Not actually at the race, but we're doing a classic car tour that starts at the Amelia Island Concours and ends at Sebring right before the event. Here's the link: Orange Blossom Tour

I'm planning on attending. We may have a booth again this year, but even if we don't I plan on being there.

I'm sure Rennie Bryant will be there as well, as he hasn't missed a race since 1970!

The Orange Blossom tour is what got me thinking about Sebring. I can't spare the time for the tour but decided I wanted to go to Sebring rather than Daytona.

Last year at Daytona was fun, but Sebring is a much better track and I like ALMS better than the Nacar/Daytona series.

It was fun to have other things to do at the track other than just spectate.

Oh, there are LOT'S of other things to do at Sebring, although not as good as "Back in the Day"!!

This year marker 40 years from my first Sebring!!! If anyone would like to get together I believe we could do that. GRM cookout or something.

I am definitely going to Daytona, I am trying to convince some friends to go to Sebring too.

hmm maybe shame on me but i never liked to watch Sebring that much . Maybe its a great drivers track but from the tv perspective it doesnt look that great to me. The infield party is not my style so that doesnt help in the equasion for me.

I've been to both and Sebring is definitely better. Also January is tough for me this year so I have to pick one. Plus the drive from Texas is a KILLER!
