Hey gang,

Thought I'd take this opportunity to share a video clip with you from this past weekends 12 Hours of Sebring SVRA event. We took the '59 Corvette down to enjoy the Vintage races this weekend, I just finished uploading some video from my new GoPro Hero2 camera (quality is amazing - see for yourself!). Here's the link to the Sprint Race that was held on Friday: HD Video - Sebring Sprint Race.

Here's a pic of the car as well:


Enjoy the ride,

Great video. I am a driver coach with an ALMS team and my girlfriend and I thought this was the neatest GT car in the vintage group at Sebring, well driven too Kind of funny to see how early these old cars needed to get whoaed down compared to modern brakes and tires.
Thanks for sharing!

The GREATEST thing about that video is that it didn't have a bunch of GD music dubbed in it!!!!!!!!
Sooooooooooo many idiots these days just insist on ruining potentially great videos by drowning out the TRUE music with a bunch of dubbed in music, and usually its obnoxious hard rock music.
I commend you for not spoiling a great video!!!!!!!!!!!

Great video! You have a sweet running and sounding car and a very nice drive too. Thanks so much for sharing it.

Agree in spades.

I've a general policy that if I hear music when I hit a website, I close it our immediately,,,,,unless I've specifically selected a site to listen to music.

This and websites that select color combinations for their background and text that clash and make them improbable or impossible to read are among the dumbest mistakes that are made all to often by those who should know better but don't.

Now a 59 Vette going thru the gears with an open exhaust on a race track, this is real music.

Hmm I might have to go and unbolt my manifolds and put some shorty headers on me old girl that V8 sound is so intoxicating. Stewy

Thanks! Trust me, it's like learning the entire track over again... When I use my Spec Racer Ford at the track I'd see the brake indicator cones & signs around the track and continue with my foot on the throttle until quite deep. Yet using the '59 I'd let off the throttle way before even seeing the brake indicators throughout the track! LOL - one could certainly go much deeper in this car, however I wanted to ensure it came home in one piece and have a fun filled weekend - we achieved both!

Drum brakes are interesting... we wanted to keep the car 'real'.

Cheers,

Lance

Tom,

There's no better music than the sound of the motor pulling in the high RPM's

Cheers,

Lance

Wow! Thanks for sharing the video. in the beginning it looked like the porsches were bumping each other.

I always wanted to take my car out to thunderhill though I do not have a hardtop or a rollbar.

Race,

What a blast! Thanks for sharing! Couldn't agree more about the "music". A high winding small block is the BEST!
