A Flying Lizard (literally)

I'm back home in NYC with a full report in the works, but for now this single image of the #44 Flying Lizard Porsche 911 RSR will have to do. Trying hard and living up to the team name, about 4.5 hours into Saturday's race. Click the image for the full-sized version...

Turn 17

Shade n Beer break

We got some sweet parking in front of a photographers trailer...he was
happy we were going to block his trailer in. It's his 49th straight
Sebring!! Super nice guy. We walked a full circuit inside the track
after the start, some food and a "spectator" pitstop are next. Good
times at this race so far, we're already making plans for camping next
year.

PS email barely squeaks out of here, so updates will be sparse

Waiting for the start

Bandwidth is pretty bad at the track, so update will go out as they
can. Lots of pics after if they don't!!

On the grid 2

Lots more people here today, and great weather!!

On the grid!!

A taste of Friday at Sebring

It's been quite another long day, and tomorrow will prove to be even longer, but in the meantime have a taste of some of the action from today. LMP went as expected with Peugeot taking top honors in qualifying, but just as expected for the race, GT2 is where it was at. Watching the cars bump, bounce and bobble through turn one I would have figured the Risi car to be in the top three, but after the dust settled it was as follows: RLR BMW 1st, Flying Lizard Porsche 2nd, and Falken Tire Porsche (with Wolf Henzler driving) followed up in 3rd. Controversy in tech inspection however found the BMW moved to the back of the pack, so Porsche takes 1-2 in qualifying, and Team Falken Tire take a very impressive position of 2nd in class. Race day is tomorrow, expect updates all day! Unless of course AT&T has anything to do with it, as the service at the track is quite spotty...
