We just returned from Sebring and had a very good week of racing.

FRANKIE had a great race in the three hour enduro. We were surprised that the were allowing WSC and ALMS prototypes in this race and there were several.

65 cars took the green and we could only qualify 32nd for the race. Rob and Marco did an excellent job with the car and we ended up finishing 18th overall and won our class. Frankie still rules.

John Coome had a great run in the Night race with his car and finished mid field. Again we were surprised that they allowed WSC and Leman's cars in this race also so his mid pack Finish was very good considering he had not run that car very much.

All in all a great trip south.

Hi Phil:
Great results - good to hear everyone is back safe and sound, not the best weather to greet you with in the great white north!
Cheers,

Hey Phil,

Congrats on a great showing at Sebring with Frankie, HSR tends to let alot of newer machinery run together. Are you guys planing to do any other HSR events this year?
The Glen in June is a great event, alot less busy and more track time than the SVRA event in September.

Steve:
Are you planning to go to the Glen in June, I would like to go but have never been - it would be great to have a mentor at the track for the first timer - not sure what class I would run with my 88 Players IROC formerly campaigned by Terry Fletcher and Steve Kent in GT Sprints, I ran last year with VARAC G70
Thank you,

Scott,

Not sure yet, my Dad might run there in June. My new job has thrown a wrench in my race plans :(
But I love the Glen its a Horsepower track, I had a fun dicing with the BMW M1's there in September.

We run the Jag in Group 9 (IMSA/Trans Am) with HSR, not sure if your Camaro would qualify to run. Check the HSR website for the class rules but I believe the car must have IMSA, Trans Am, Winston Cup or World Challenge history.

Congrats To Strudwick Racing And The Drivers.

I Witnessed The Races And Was Also Surprised At The Many Classes Of Cars On The Track At The Same Time, Talk About Speed Differances, Makes Mosport Sprints Look Like Sunday School. Times In Frankies Race Were From 2;06 To 2;45= Frankie Was In The Mid 2;25 Range.

Watching The 3 Day Event Makes Me Want To Get Back In The Seat.

If You Ever Get A Chance To See A Sebring Hsr Race Do Come Out, The Viewing Of The Cars And The Incredible Haulers Is Worth The Price Of Admission. <$40 For 3 Days>

Hey I Even Said Hello To Corner Two Racing Who Are Waiting For The Alms Race On The 15th. They Were Grided In The Rv Line Up In About 20th Place.

I Would Also Be At The Track Rving But They Don`t Allow Any Dogs.

Hey Phil, check out the latest issue of Victory Lane Magazine. There's a shot of Frankie at Sebring.

Hope to see you in the Summer if I can get out with the Big Cat!

So far it looks like I might be able to run the Festival and the Glen, we are doing Daytona and Sebring in the Fall.
