Sebring #1

David Sugg continues to hit his stride.  This is his second top ten finish in a row.

Dennis Olthoff has the Superformance Coupe back in the race.  This first event was a tentative one, taking it easy on the car and particularly the engine.

Overall After Sebring

Based on a strong Sebring performance (and attrition in the top ranks), the Reed/Sugg team has jumped from 17th overall after Atlanta to 11th overall after Sebring.  Way to go guys!  This again illustrates that you have to finish to win.  Strong steady performance is the key to events like this.

The Kline/Roxbury team remains in 42nd overall.

The Gould/Naquin team has moved up from 49th after Atlanta to 42nd after Sebring.

The Olthoff/Ray team jumped from 99th after the blown engine to 66th based on the strong runs at Gingerman #1 (with a blown engine) and now at Sebring.  A top 30 finish is within reason, which would be an incredible recovery after missing three events.

Big Surprizes

The RennTech Mercedes in first place.  Even with the RennTech weight reduction program, this car is a tank!  I guess with enough horsepower (575 hp per RennTech web site) even a tank can hustle.  This bodes well for those of us who could use a personal weight reduction program.

The Beck Lister Corvette in fourth place.  This is as big a surprize as the Superformance Mk III was in this position last year.

The Vipers.  No Vipers in the top ten last year.  Now we have three.  We had four until one crashed.

The Mosler entries.  The Mosler Raptor dominated this event for the last half of the 1990's.  The Mosler Consulier is 29th position overall.
