ill do one. Any will be great so Which ??????
Their pricing at Roebling is very good. In the spirit of trying a new track we have not run before, I'd say Sebring. There may be other opportunities for Roebling later in the year due to its proximity to us. However, with Sebring, Jan seems to be the best for if we want to run it in 2017. The other dates for Sebring this year is April (too close to the dragon); June (too hot); then Sept (still too hot). It is certainly more at expense at Sebring. But it is Sebring--full stop. Everyone should do Sebring at least once, and this may be our opportunity. Plus you were able to get another $100 at Sebring ($50 off the rate and $50 for our own garage area)

T and Angelo? Thoughts?

People are trying to get a link with pricing for Sebring. Is it 475 minus discount?

When you guys get your garages ask to be placed toward the end of pit lane. That's typically where a lot of us S2Ks get garages. (lower date garages)

Edit: A few of us did the Roebling event last year in January and it was ****ing snowing/sleeting while we were on track. Thinking about doing it again but it will be freezing cold again I'm sure.

Thanks for the recommendation on the garage location so we can be close to our other S2k friends. Good reminder about inclement weather North of FL. Considering the lower temps we are already getting in Nov. it may be better to pan for Roebling for Spring or later. Looking forward to doing Sebring in Jan. Seems like the perfect time of the year to be there.

This is a nice epsiode from the Drive channel on how to drive the Sebring 12hr course with track notes. It starts 5 min in the video. 6:48 into the video is the famous turn 17.

A few of us are registering today. If you are on the fence, consider that his may be a one-time opportunity to join a JAX Caravan down to Sebring and do this together. What an amazing experience this will be. Sebring is in the bucket list of many motorsports enthusiasts around the world. JAX Team - Even if you are not running, consider coming down for the weekend with us. It is quite an experience

"Sebring (pronounced "sea bring") Raceway is one of the oldest continuously operating race tracks in the United States, its first race being run in 1950. Sebring is one of the classic race tracks in North American sports car racing and plays host to the 12 Hours of Sebring...The track is often recognized for its famous, high-speed "Turn 17", a long, bumpy, fast right hander that can make or break a car's speed down the front straight. The corner can fit up to 3 cars wide..." Wikipedia
