Jimmy,
if you ain't got a hotel by now....good luck. Hotel space is very very very....did I say very? limited in Sebring. Most have 4-5 night minimums. That being said depending on how far you are willing to drive there are some options outside of Sebring. I highly recommend corral parking.
Let us know if you plan on making the trip. We will be there. We can give you some "must haves" you will need to pack.

We can't wait to see everybody again and to get out of this cold weather we have been having. Does "no Rock" still have his Vette? Tell him to quit driving that truck and come to the race.
See you soon.

Getting to be that time of year again! May forego the Corral this year in lieu of bringing down a motorhome for a couple days rather than just the day pass on Saturday.
What's everyone doing this year? I'll be supporting the team but mourning the loss of JohnnyO to Caddy...a fellow Irishman and a great guy!

We'll be there, 4th year in the Corral, just wish I could bring my own Vette, but it will remain in hibernation for at least a couple more months yet, WAY too much snow up here!

We ordered the 4 day tickets, so you better order yours before they sell out. We can't wait to see everybody again and to get out of this cold weather we have been having. Does "no Rock" still have his Vette? Tell him to quit driving that truck and come to the race.
See you soon.
