CO Boss at Sebring on 9/10/11?
I was at Sebring this past weekend with PBOC and saw a CO Boss out on track with black GT500 wheels in the novice group, car looked good! Just wondering if you are on here? Curious as to what tire setup you are running (sizes and squared or staggered) and if you had any overheating issues on track? It was a scorcher!! I'll post a few pics I took of it, I think I might have got a video too.

I was there a few weeks back, nice facility but was not overly impressed with the course (I'm no expert but..) Part of the problem was track time, things did not go well for our group, not Homestead's fault. I may make it down there again since a friend has a LS coming and I am sure he will want to try it but it is not on my "regular" schedule.

I was down there about 2 weeks ago on a business trip. Stayed at the Hampton Inn & Suites 5 minutes from speedway. Drove over to see the speedway. Next time down i will check the schedule. Looks like Friday nights are drag nights as long as weather is good

Depending on the club we run with you can join us as a passenger at PBIR or Sebring.

You may hear people putting PBIR down but that can be a fun track and teach you a lot. It is easy to remember you way around and know where you are at all times unlike your first time at a track like Sebring. I would recommend PBIR for your first track experience.

You will need a helmet Snell SA 2005 or better, long pants are a good idea and some clubs require them. I don't wear long sleeves unless required but always good to bring just in case. You do not need a racing suit but a lot of nerve to get into a car with me
This is a good site to see up-coming event down here:
