For the 11th time, the Forza Sports Car Series will open its season at America's greatest sports car race, The 11th annual Mobile 1 2 Hours of Sebring presented by Forza 4, a demanding endurance race inspired by the 12 Hours of Sebring in the ALMS. No track in North America has more tradition or brings a larger crowd than Sebring.One of the reasons the race is considered so difficult is that part of the original concrete-slab runway—bumps, seams, and all—provides a brutish racing surface at Sunset Bend, a high-speed, large radius turn in between the Ullman Straight and the front straight where your suspension tuning will be severely tested. In its original configuration, it did not take long for Sebring to become the American venue of choice for European manufacturers to show off their latest creations—a tradition that continues to the present day with the Forza Sports Car Series. Prepare for the bumps and bruises of one of the worlds fastest tracks...Feel the need and watch the speed!

SPEC qualls ended 30 minutes ago. If there is any officials with Qual times please send them to PredatorUSMC. The race will begin on time tomorrow.
Would the Spec drivers be willing to do a group photo-shoot? I have some ideas of some shots i want and i would really appreciate it if you guys would be willing to all be in the room early so we can get the photo shoot together so that we can update the site even more. If we can all be in the room 30minutes early i would really appreciate the cooperation. Thank you.

Whoever ends up hosting/getting the times/replay please get that info to me as well as Pred, as I will be Admin for the Spec Class.
Thanks, and have a great race!

I´m amazed of the competition level we will see this season, ST cars are running great lap times. I had some mistakes at qualy but i´m not able to reach a 23 and less a 21.
At GT, well.... I thought i had something to fight, but seems i´ll have to get in the track with a Knife between my theets.

We have a tradition of keeping times off the forums, just a reminder.

That would be one SP33D RAC3R. Don't let it bother you, he's like that. A veteran of Forza and multi-time Champion on every level, he is one of the Elite drivers in the Forza world.
An original member of the IFCA I've been racing since Forza 1. I have very few wins against him. If he really tries, he's as fast as anyone I can name, but most of the time he doesn't try that hard. A very lazy racer.
His brother is more normal (KickRocks) and was 2 seconds slower in a higher P.I. of the same MOPAR. That's right, a MOPAR! lol He's in a Viper, and y'all are in trouble. lol

1. AAR GTDon's Spec time is not posted, though mine is. We qualified in the same session with Predator.
2. I might be able to participate in the photo shoot.

Its a shame that Rb77 is out of it for this season as it would be great to see a battle of titans as it seems that SP33d RAC3R isnt all talk. Nice job. But lets keep times to a minimum on here (get the pun?). I personally dont have an issue with it, im just reminded you guys of the series' tradition/policy.

... Side note after looking over the quall times.... I cant mess with your guy's poll times. Will say that i wish i was faster in GS, as i feel thats where my biggest gap will be from the leaders. Still, i cant wait to get out there

Well, i´m not making mention on especific times,( I already had a warning last season for this) i meant a time range. For this season Qualy results is giving the times of each driver.
Personally see other racers times makes me try to improve, to see what i need to reach. It doesnt desmotivate me.
But, I will try not to do mention of them. Sorry!

Well seeing as how Pred is posting the times as they come in, I don't see this as being a problem anymore, but yes Sainted, as per tradition times were not spoken of. Me personally, I don't see what the big deal is, gives you something to shoot for if you're one of those type of drivers...which most of us are. if you're not, then hey, makes you bow out quicker than waiting for later in the series. Either way...win/win in my book, lol.
