Default Sebring Rentals help....

So we’re down at the 48 hours and have been having a blast with the Suncoast advanced DE and watching the races.

I want to come back down March 6,7&8(?) for the next Suncoast DE and bring my wife.

Instead of taking another week out of my life to tow for 4 days, 2 down and 2 back, I was wondering if there was anybody who rented track prepped cars for DE days.

I’d much rather fly into Ft Meyers or Orlando and rent a track car for the 3 days and fly back home Sunday night.

Anyone here know of anyone who rents track cars for DE at Sebring? Doesn’t have to be anything fancy or powerful, just reliable. Help?

Thanks for any info .....

Check with Sick Sideways, on site at Sebring, also David Tuaty at TLM Racing, maybe Eric Zitza at Zotz in Orlando. Bunch of good folks around.

I'd suggest talking with Shea Holbrook too. She just purchase BSI Racing with her husband and I believe they have top shelf Miatas they rent. You could work in a great day of coaching with Shea too. She's awesome and a ton of fun. You would enjoy it and take away some great new ideas and skills.

You could also try Corsa Crew, they have a couple nice Cayman GTS’s that they rent out. Joseph Thomas is the owner and an all around good dude.

3 years ago I kept my gt4 for the winter ( thanksgiving to March) at a shop in Orlando; every 3-4 weeks I would fly down from philly on a cheap Disney flight to spend a few days at the Sebring.

That’s the plan for next season.
Just missed the boat this year.
Thanks Marc. I may be in touch about that.
Thanks.
