Default Radio Frequency For Sebring Corner Workers

Just got a scanner for the club race and was wondering if anyone knew the radio frequency for the Sebring corner workers.

I know, I know, last time I used radios at a race I managed to overshoot my pit, at least this way I can hear the corner workers tell control that I overshot it

Can't help you Manny but are you sure this is a good idea? I understand the benefit but all that chatter would take away from my concentration.

Maybe you should (or mean) to just have your crew listening... then radioing to you in the car if anything is amiss.

Mitch I think you hit the nail as they say. I could not imagine all that chatter about cars dragging body parts... etc. buzzing in your ear while racing with 70 of your closest friends. Your CREW has the scanner, I get it.

I was kidding guys, I wasn't planning on listening to the scanner while I was racing

The crewchief (and that's usually whomover I can schmooze to man the radio) will have the scanner and the radio. My hope is that the CC can relay any info they hear from control that may be helpful (yellow flag, upcoming black flag, etc). I even got the CC headset modified to fit both the radio and the scanner.

Where's the best place to get those things these days. I know the Nascar group uses them all the time. Is your unit the same as those?
