Sebring 12 Hour 2004 Race Thread

Good Morning everyone. The countdown to Le Mans starts here. Today we have the 2nd biggest sportscar race in the world the Sebring 12 Hours.The race its self starts in a little over 5 Hours.

There are going to be many different ways the follow the race this year. If you are here in Europe then the 8 hours of the race is LIVE on MotorsTV, over in the US the whole race is LIVE on SpeedTV.

If like me you do not have access to either of those channels the best way to follow the race will be tune in to the fantastic American Le Mans Series Radio Web, who also have live Timing and Scoring you can find those two services here for the Radio Web and here for T&S

But aswell as all that we will be covering the race here on Ten-Tenths, can you post all your thoughts on the race in this thread please. The Ten-Tenths chat room is also open for business too.

Enjoy the race.......

Good morning! Lukely I have satelite TV so EliseGT1 and Vinnie will come over to my place to follow the race on tv. Let's see how the commentators are - otherwise I'll switch to Radio Le Mans.

BTW - great news this morning on info source. Another team, Epsilon, has requested two Courage C65 JPX's. We might see 8 of them in June :-).

Thanks Rob,
Will just need to convince the wife and kids that watching MotorsTV for 8 hours is a better bet than Dora The Explorer and Sex in the City on tape!

Let's declare that Rob is the main animator for this topic (Rob, I hope you feel as a fiddle and ready for love... during 12 hours !), and I'll hope you'll all enjoy the race on Ten-Tenths !

Thank you Rob for your traditional thread. I'll try to follow most of the race on Internet. I cannot receive Motors TV with the cable operator (ARGGHHH!).
I will sleep for 4 to 12 tomorrow morning. Hopefully, there won't be any major car race then.

Pascal, don't even get me started on my Cable company - they don't even know what MotorsTV is. As for some other motor racing I think thare is a Formula Bore race on in the morning.

Anyway back to Sebring not long now
