It's more like 35 miles.
Check out these specific maps. The track itself is out on 98 about 5 miles from town... The bar place is on 27, north end of Sebring. |

If you stay in Winter Haven or Lakeland, it's not too bad... forget a hotel in Highlands County. |

Welcome back to Floridah. Don't forget, the speed posted is the suggested speed limit. Most go 15 to 20 mph over until you get to I-4. Then it's 50 mph under the posted speed limit. If someone is using a directional, approach with caution. They probably hit it by accident. Do not drive on Martin Luther King Blvd anywhere in the state, especially at night without a cell phone. There are more people 90 years or older with drivers licenses here then in any other state. Treat them as a moving road obstacle. They may be driving while dead. Floridas' economy is reliant on tourism. So enjoy yourself, spend lots of money and leave. Have a great stay.

There are two things Floridian Drivers don't use - turn signals and speedometers.
Thank's for the warning, but you are preach'n to the choir, brother... can we hear an AMEN!!?!? For the most part, we will be avoiding I-4. If you don't like I-4, you would HATE the 405 in LA... The difference? The 405 is simply a longer I-4... |

Speed had a decent, live (sort a) preview on lastnite.
Even showed the Corvette team manager dropping his pants when asked "Briefs or Boxers?" I was lookin' for Jake errrrr Jeff, figured you would have had a BBV shirt on. Wish I was there. |

We hooked up with Tommy, had a hearty (!) breakfast at McDonalds...
Tommy is a helluva nice guy. Got to meet up with Jeffvette, too. But he was working, so that was rather quick. Still, another cool Guru! Had a great time! I will be posting pics from today shortly. |

Your gonna love this. I was over looking for Jeffvette at the Compuware 3 car and Andy (bogus) told me basicly to look for tall guy, white shirt working around the 3 car. So I see this guy resembling the desciption. I give him a tap and ask him if he knows Jeff. The guy tells me no, I dont know him with a slight accent. Turns out I was asking Oliver Gavin if he knew Jeff. So Jeff, Ask Oliver if some bearded guy was looking for you today.
Andy, thanks for saying those nice things about me. Thanks a million. Attach file: million.jpg (8.76 KB) |

We are home safe and sound! I will be going over pictures tomorrow night.
The flights were just a bitch... Ft. Liquordale airport was backed up big time... and we left 40 minutes late! We arrived in Vegas 40 minutes late... a long flight, full plane and poor AC. The 2nd leg was great! LV to LA! Under 1 hour! Good AC! But our luggage didn't make it. We went to dinner and then came back to get the luggage. Everything seems to have survived. Great time was had by all! It was fun meeting Tommy and Jeff! We visited a lot of neat places... the Mighty 8th Air Force Museum in Savannah, GA (must see), the races themselves and Gatorama (somewhere on US 27 down around Palmdale). They have a ton of gators... plus some FL Panthers, skunks and Raccoons! Very neat place. |
