Sebring IMSA race

[blacksheep-1]

Going to run 2 GT4 Mustangs, one in the VP sprint series, this one is owned by Griffon Racing and swept the pole and both races at Daytona, so we are hoping for a good result at Sebring. and in the GS race we'll be running the 59 car with the Kid from Mars and Bob Michalean driving, We just missed the pole at Daytona in this car and were riding in 8th when he dropped a wheel off and ripped off the undertray (and everything else) and we went a lap down. So we're hoping to fix that as well.
Look for Kohr Motorsports ask for "Blacksheep" . the "Tire Guy" or just Rob.
The VP race is this SUNDAY the GS race is THURSDAY next week.

The WEC guys have quite the setup, looks like Michelin came prepared for war.

The BMW ran theirs on lap3, then fell off, so they hit the sweet spot psi/temp/grip right on the money, ours was on lap 5, so we/ I left some on the table. If the BMW had been balked, it would've been all over and we'd look like heros, but it worked out for them, so good job.

Same. I only knew about it because of Kohr’s Instagram

Apparently it is a non spectator race, which is absurd, because a lot of folks would prolly like to see them without the insane prices of the 12 hour weekend.
No worries, the hotels were getting $300/night.
Speaking of absurd, IMSA has everyone packing up the rigs, going outside the gate, staging, then coming back in Tuesday morning. Srsly, why not put the rigs where they need to be to begin with?

You know that would be the sensible thing to do.
