As I work through several gigabytes of images from Sebring I'll post some of the images here, moderators permitting.
Sebring is unique in American racing, historically and currently. It's likely still the best track for allowing spectators to view the action closely from so many different places on the track. With a decent camera, persistence and a little luck, good images can be had without the aid of a photographers press pass. One of my favorite spots is turn 7, a right hand chicane approached from 6th gear speed, and, in late afternoon, complicated by having to drive directly into the setting sun.

Series9 and myself were also at Sebring, camped out on the infield side of turn 6 just past the drive over bridge. I have some decent pics I took with my old Minolta Dimage A1 to post ... will get to them when I can, they're on Series9's Mac right now.
My first trip ever to Florida, and I went straight to Sebring for the race. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) What a great trip, what a great track! Joe's 914 RS was there, got a lot of comments about that from people wandering around. Good times. We tentatively plan to debut my 914 Series9 project next year (will be a 3.2 version, so not quite as crazy, but should still be a gorgeous car by then ... and fast and loud). Anyway, I got some neat pics of the 914s racing in the classic event as well as the prototypes and Flying Lizard's GT3 RSR cars. Not quite as nice as the others on this thread already, but ... well, I'll get 'em on when I can. Hope to see more 914World folks there next year! Cheers! - Nelson |
