Default Sebring Bkfast, Weds., Mar 13, w 12 Hr Race?

Just checking, will the Sebring Airport Weds Breakfast meeting be held on March 13? I see the Sebring 12 Hour Race activities are beginning then. Official race day is Saturday but practice starts Weds.

If weather cooperates and there's an enough ramp space and an open chair I'd enjoy meeting the Central FL VAF team.

Well, I was there last year during race week and had no problem doing the Weds breakfast gathering. It was kind of neat to see the race cars practicing and the overhead pattern view is great. I can't say for sure what changes they have made.

Thanks Gary, I hope to hear from someone at the Mar 6 breakfast tomorrow. Just to verify the 13th breakfast gathering is on!

the sebring races have no effect on the airport. most race participants come by road. at most there is a handful of jets on the ramp. see you there.

Carl, this morning was rain and wind as a small front came thru. Don't know how many made it to Sebring today but Turbo came to Venice for dinner at Sharky's yesterday and we are both planning on going next week, weather permitting. I'll see if I can round up a few more West coast RVer's. See you there.

Default Mar 13

I plan to be there, WX permitting. However sunrise at Sebring was 6:43 am today, and with Daylight Saving Time starting on Sunday, next Weds. sunrise will be close to 7:43 am.

Pretty sure coming from DeLand that morning, and collecting 1 pax at ORL, I'll probably arrive closer to 9 am. My pax has connections with the race, so I expect a great day!

Looking forward to meeting you all!

Carl

I was green with envy so you should be too.

Actually, iPhone malfunction. I'll clean it up.
