Default Track Car Rental - Who does it for Sebring?

Hoping to hit Sebring August 17th with chin but I sold my car and haven't found a replacement yet. Does anyone know who i can rent a car from for the day? Would rather it not be a miata.

Thanks.

Hertz at Fort Lauderdale airport rents Gallardos, Fiats, and others.

Get all the insurance options, put it on trailer, rack up miles at Sebring. Cost per mile cheaper than your own car.

you driving yes, me driving no way. Remember my Aero Beetles used to break often, while other owners claimed reliability supremacy.

They have LP 560/4 and California. Calfornia would not survice a session at Sebring, but LP 560/4 may resist 2 sessions.

No idea on rental fees and insurance, but it must be $$$.

In slow motion all cars are reliable, even the Aero Beetles. I'm still puzzled how Eddie Boy's Aero Beetle survived, when he can place a GTR or Gallardo in limp mode in 4 laps around Sebring.
