2012 will be the 60th Anniversary of the famous 12 hr race in Sebring, FL. It should be an AWESOME race.

Here's some information; Sebring International Raceway

Unless overcome by other unexpected events I plan to be there. I went last year for the first time and it was awesome! Of course, with the company I had ( Photo Girl, SUPA, Quinn, Cadillac Tech, Cubby, and Diamond Dell) how could it be anything less than great?

Great article, Bruce. Good to see the new driver is fitting in with the team. Looks like it is going to be an exciting season, with some of the changes.

Good luck to Corvette Racing. Thanks for sharing.

Bruce & Kathy safely got to Ocala but called an end to the day short of the SCHOOLEY home. Best and safe for them! We will link up early tomorrow before they make the final leg to Sebring.

We expect that Sebring 2012 will be awesome. Anyone who wants to join us at the last moment is most welcome.

The weather is great! The new Corvette C6-R is very sharp. We'll hang out in the Audi Corral today & tomorrow...plenty of food & drinks! The guys in the infield have been asking where Supa is this year. We miss you guys.

Met Bruce and Kathy last night in Winter Haven. While waiting on them watched the Navy Academy try to play baseball ..... never saw so many Navy guys tripping and falling into the dirt while rounding second. Automatic outs.
Sad, sad, sad.....it appeared that water ballot is more their speed.

Today was just the greatest day of racing and fun. Bruce drove my Audi (top down) in the parade laps and just hammered it out. The pace car was doing its best just to catch up with him. What a ride.

We saw three XLRs at the track. One (1) of those slow black kind and a couple of those fast red ones. Pretty neat to see....

Tomorrow should be even better than today! Anyone planning to visit the track and watch the race should let us know. Non-stop fun here!

Steve

We made it home around 3:00 today. The racing was great and the weather was perfect! A big THANK YOU to Schooley for the Audi Club Turn 1 tickets. Life is good!

I'm glad you two had a great time and returned home safely. VERY nice of Schooley to take care of you two - you deserve it! Bet the weather is just as nice in Indy as in Florida, huh?
