Default Visiting Orlando, Ques: getting on Sebring ?

Seems I might accompany my wife to a class in Orlando the third week
of April and noticed Chin at Sebring that week. What would be some
approaches to getting a car for one or both days on the 14th & 15th?
I've seen folks come to CA and get Mustangs, etc for track days but
are there other options? Any help appreciated.

I have Corvette's available for track days. If you need a referral, ask Mark Hicks General Manager of CHIN. Call me for details and pricing if interested at 954 258-6613.

Henry, whats up? This is David in Bham. Are you coming to Barbers with PBOC in March? I should have Robs motor back together for that event. We will more than likely two driver in the enduro. I wish I could have come back to Seabring but I have to eat.

Hey David, don't know yet if I'm coming but good chance I'll be there. Depends on the weather and if my Radical is ready. Waiting for confirmation from the rental guys. See you soon, hello's to Rob.

Looks like Saturday is completely sold out and Sunday has spots left for solo drivers only. If you haven't been signed off as solo-qualified by Chin or another group they recognize at Sebring you're probably out of luck this time, I'm afraid.

You might go down anyway and take advantage of Chin's passenger wristband policy - $20 and a waiver and you can bum a ride from anyone willing to take you. Bring your helmet and if other Chin events at Sebring are a good model, you'll find plenty of nice folks who'd probably be willing to add some right seat weight and give you a ride.

You can put your car on the Amtrak car train? This depends on your location

Thanks for the inputs, even with 4 years on track and reading Going
Faster I think I'd be more comfortable with a coach. Looks like I'll try
to take the Canon and spend a day or two getting pics and a ride if I'm
lucky.
