Default My pictures from the 12 hrs of Sebring Race Saturday/videos too.

Mobil1 Racing invited me down to the Sebring race this past Saturday and you couldn't find more gracious hosts. Mobil 1 is the main sponsor for the race and their banners are every where and rightfully so. Mobil Gas/Synthetic Oil are top flight products that I highly recommend for all your Corvettes new and used. Thank you Dave T and all the Mobil 1 Execs, you have a great team.



In the pits.

On TV in the Corvette pits.



Tadge Juechter and I.



Harlan Charles and I.







Patrick Dempsey in the Mobil suite the night before the race. He raced Porsche for his team...always a crowd looking on his pit area.





















I definitely got close to the action Saturday.


I was in the Parade lap moments before the start of the Sebring Race.

Looks like one great trip...good to pick up on information for your customers... People who think just "anybody" can sell them a Corvette, need to work with a professional like Mike.

Simply amazing.

This is what you get for selling 3,100 Corvettes over 36 years.

Absolutely the best non-sale/non-delivery thread that Furman has ever posted.

As usual, the pictures tell the whole story!!!
