Default Leh Keen's Sebring Video...

Just ran across his 06' video again and thought with Sebring 4weeks away, this should be required reading. It's his 03' RS, not a cup.
Tighten your lap belts, it's a bumpy ride....

JR,
Are you going to be at the 48 hours of Sebring?

One of these days hopefully, but not this year. I just get inspired by Leh's driving......

I had the same thought! He goes down through every gear in the box. I can't imagine what the footwork looks like for the 6-5-4-3-2-1 into the hairpin.

Would that have been a 2:07 if Leh had stayed in second?

Same to you, my friend!

LOL...I doubt it. But it helps when you have a decent transmission budget...

Would have been a 2:07 if the car hadn't have slid around so much exiting a couple of the turns. Still an amazing video and fun to watch.

Here is one of my from the World Challenge Touring car with the xtract transmission. This is the first race with the gearboxes (installed the week of the race) and one where I qualified on the pole but had to start from the back due to a broken exhaust hanger making the exhaust hang too low.
