“Too much is not enough” best describes my experience at the 2006 Sebring 12/24. While the weather has always been pretty good for the race, this year it was perfect. The temperature at the 06:30 start was about 60 degrees with fog and most importantly, no wind, unlike the past races that have had 20mph winds all day. The afternoon brought temperatures into the high 70’s to low 80’s under blazing bright sun and deep blue clear skies. The conditions were definitely too nice, but not more than we could stand.
