Sebring predictions....

So myself, @Dave-ROR and @coolhandluke are all headed to Sebring for 3 full days, plus 2.5 hours at night on the track with Chin Track Days this weekend.

Any predictions on issues, failures or laptimes?

Pretty sure @Wrecky_Flowers_ will be there in his 2022 as well as a few others that I am not sure are members here.

Weather forecast is partly cloudy, 0% chance of rain, lows of 58°, highs of 82°

I’ve always wanted to do that night event there. But if Wrecky is there, there will be some carnage

Jokes aside, Ricky needs to run a 33 in that GR86.

I predict my first lap to be slow as I dust the cob webs off.

Chin Track Days does a great job with these track events. I instruct with them, but I am not going to this event. A good friend of mine will be there with his supercharged Miata that I have done a ton of work on with him. He usually also does the classroom instruction portion as well (Josh). Have a great time, drive quickly and safely.

All those years of posting "still on the original TOB" so you decided to take out the whole tranny instead?

How bad are the bumps in a road car?

When watching cockpit footage of a prototype or GT3/GTLM/GTD car going around the course they seem pretty brutal.
