Default 12 Hours of Sebring Discussion Thread

yikes! I must be living under a rock. With the start of the F1 season all the email alerts I was getting from IMSA just seemed to fade into white noise. Just happened to tune in and see Justin Bell doing the pre-show for the race.

May not be able to watch all of it, but plan to watch a couple of hours of the start and the finish.

Lets keep this discussion thread going for Sebring. Any chance you think that the LMP2 cars will dominate against the DPs or will it be like Daytona all over again?

The good ol' boys won't let the P2s dominate. They'll keep pushing those tube-framed pieces of crap further and further beyond their design intent.

fair play to the 'good ol boys', they drove well to win it

Enjoyed watching the race. I guess the P2 got close to victory this time. Lets hope they inch closer to the top step on the podium next time.

Three P2's in the top five this time is really good.

Were you guys there, or did you watch it on TV? I was there and it was a blast, but I couldn't tell who was winning! They have what place each car is in (within its class) on the sides of the cars, but I was on the straight so couldn't read them. Fun anyway, but next time I'll bring a radio.

was there. a little disapointed in the outcome being decided by pit strategy and most of the field finishing on the lead lap. in what should be a tech minded series this was weak especialy the gt field only being 3 sec or so slower a lap than the p cars.
