Is anyone able to take a photo of GT3r/s and post a picture of the results?

Maybe if the title of the thread said something about Sebring....
I'm here, not racing though.
Night races last night were good and clean. Sprint races are today,
Lots of mechanical failures.
If I can get some sheets, I'll post when i can then get back to a computer.

Running the enduro tomorrow in one of the Werkstatt Charlottesville Spec Boxsters. Looking forward to finally getting to drive Sebring. Arranged a ride in the morning DE group, before the warm up so I can at least see the track in person before driving it.

Big turnout. More rigs than I've ever seen at a Sebring race.

Juan L. won big in the Orange sprints. In the second one Doug R finished second and Karl P third (I think).

Seemed like lots more than normal fender benders. Didn't see anything serious though.

Believe James S won the first Red sprint (by quite a lot). In that race I saw two newish Cup cars exchange more than paint close to the outside wall before the bridge going into Turn 1.

Weather was great.

The track is slow..

I learned to get a results sheet EVERY TIME. 1st session no prob. 2nd no transponder but did not know until AFTER 3rd session... had to qualify dead last and due to &%$^%$ driving in the cup cars (crashes) our Qual session was cut to one lap fpr most people except us at the back, my out lap was my only timed lap. Could not get a clear lap in the 1st sprint nor 2nd due to that but moved up a lot in each one.

Chris, I was right behind you in the 2nd sprint (I thought I passed you once earlier?) but could not get by, tough traffic in front of us and you drove well. Track is very slow. My new setup is not working yet but maybe I can get a clear lap tomorrow and see what it can do.

I had more than one car push me nearly into the end of the wall at 150MPH going into T17 as I was aside them. NO RACING ROOM. Some really poor driving in our group. And white GTC3 cars that are pulling my '08 Grand Am 997 on the back straight.

But it beats the hell out of 4 feet of snow in my yard in CT

Chris Musante and his wicked car went to the cup car group.
P Gutowski won 3R first race, 2nd overall behind 4R Tim McKenzie. My front strut blew up somewhere during the race.
K Gutowski won the 2nd race after a good battle with M Congleton, 3rd overall behind Mc Kenzie and JP Doumolin(sp?).

Awesome to have the results so soon!
Great event and big kudos to the organization!

Only a bit more carnage that average, but I guess that's just a consequence of the big turnout and winter racing deprivation syndrome(?)
