911 RSR wins Sebring!

I watched most of the 12 hour endurance race at Sebring International Raceway on my computer streaming today. The hotly contested GTLM class was won by the mid engine Porsche 911 RSR. It was a great race! Nick Tandy provided the final and critical stint.

Porsche has made history since 1960 as the most successful manufacturer racing at Sebring with 18 outright victories and now 71 class wins. Today’s win was against some potent machinery from Ferrari, Ford, Chevrolet and BMW.

On Sebring’s rough and bumpy road course you have to be good and lucky. Today was Porsche’s day.
