Sebring 2005

[Chris24]

For all the Sebring newbies, don't forget to schedule a visit to Bob Tullis's private collection of cars and aircraft. He has 13 aircraft on display, 6 Group 44 race cars (Jag's, Triumph's etc) and 3 road cars. Its in a hanger next to the airport terminal at Sebring airport. No charge to look around, just a charity donation box on the door. well worth a visit, particularly since its a 1 minute drive from the main gate of the circuit !

Update: The Rollcentre cars (both, the second is a spare car) are off from Heathrow. The crew will follow shortly. All the best to them and please bring back some silver ware.

HGB, how do you know him/them??

Is it worth us CA guys strolling over tp the pits and mentioning your name?? I know you've got into the pits before??

Oh, BTW, it looks like I am going to make it to Le Mans again.  I was told it is habit forming.   Another trip with high school kids that ends just as Le Mans weekend is starting, so my engine is really revved up now!!!

Great news John!!!

Let us know nearer the time what camping gear we can help you out with so that you can travel lighter!! I've certainly got a spare tent available and can probably rustle up an airbed. I haven't got a spare sleeping bag, but I'm sure someone amongst us must have!! We are taking a van down this year so space is no problem at all!!

[hgb]

That's fantastic !!! They shouldn't be more than 15 people. Shorty will appreciate the cake service.

[Pidgeon]

I'll be working to get the Club Arnage banner up Wednesday morn. Asyou enter coming down the main road look over to the left. If you pass the toilets and medical infirmiry(also on the left ), turn around and look over to the right. Not in the toilet ............... behind it.

[jpchenet]

What time are you likely to arrive Pidge??  Don't want to beat you there!!!  

Being newbies an' all we don't wnat to mark off the wrong area!!  

Anyone heard anything from Smokie, Gab or Phil?? Hope they're behaving themselves with all those bikers and spring breakers!!

Bloody hell Chris, are you going to gun us all down??  What airline were you flying with!!!!?  

[Chris24]

The red roofed building at the bottom of the picture is the main airport terminal. To the extreme right of it is  the corner of a grey aircraft hanger. This is the home of the Bob Tullis Group 44 collection.

[Chris24]

Err, I guess the Collings Foundation airline ! In case you are wondering, yes I did pay $350 for a 25 minute,once in a lifetime flight on a B-17. But hey isn't that what credit cards are for ?
