You are absolutely right Randy - I forgot about the open container bit. It is illegal to have any open container of alcohol inside any vehicle on a public road or public parking lot - and that's not just the driver - so, if a passenger is seen swigging, the driver gets busted.
In literal terms, it is actually illegal to be intoxicated in this state. Needless to say, a degree of latitude is applied at events like Sebring, Bike Week etc.
My feeling on all of this, is not to make myself an obvious target. There are plenty of people at this event who behave so insanely (and therefore attract the attentions of the law enforcement community) that you can kind of slip under the radar. I'm not advocating illegal behaviour, of course, just a modicum of common sense.
Far be it for me to preach about how folks conduct themselves - I only posted on this theme, because, for those not familiar with the way things are done here, it can be a little confusing.
One final thought just occurred to me - and I suppose only applies to the lads reading this (but you never know) - you can't piss in public here, as seems sort of OK at Le Mans. So, whapping out your pride and joy and slashing against the nearest tree/fence/RV/corner marshall will reward you with a trip in the back of a squad car and a dent in your wallet, in addition to the ridicule of all your mates ("Looks like a penis, only smaller" etc. etc.)
 
If it\'s good and fast, it won\'t be cheap. If it\'s fast and cheap, it won\'t be good. If it\'s good and cheap, it won\'t be fast.

Hmmm... going several shades of green, especially as I can almost smell Florida from here. Or maybe that's DH's collection of used Hustlers....

What you will be smelling along with the burnt Brat's,racing fuels etc. is the sweet smell of the Florida orange blossom.I look forward every year to that drive through all of the orange groves on the way to the track.
It is quite refreshing. ::)

In the morning to get you going - try a brandy with a drop of coffee in.............. I think thats the rightway round

They drink it in spain, and its called (not spelled right) Karokeo - or something like that.

Wishy - I think I've found a nice hire car -  You said you wanted a good American Icon like the Cadillac.
