    Any of you watch Speed Touring Car and GT at Sebring?

    Wow what a piece of shit track. I know it is hollowed ground, but the track itself is falling apart. I can't believe teams would run there with all the bumps, cracks, and patches tearing up their cars. You think the owners would put some money into their facility.

              Uh, thats actually the reason why a lot teams run there. Its common knowledge that 12hrs at Sebring is way tougher on the cars and drivers than the 24hr of Le Mans.

              I got about 8sec of airtime this year btw the SWC and the ALMS races. I was excited.

              As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
              You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

                  It's really not as bad as it looks.

                  It's pretty much completely repaved except the front and back straights along with turn 1 and turn 17.

                  They have seriously improved the track over the past decade or so, new pit structure included.
