This was also during the time of film and I would typically take one or two rolls of 36 exposures so I'd really have to pick my shots and make every one count. Today with digital I'll hit the track and shoot about 1200

I don't know if this is a 1954 but it is an original 250 Testa Rossa and it wasn't till many years later that I've come to realize how lucky I was. I also took one reel of super 8 movies while I was there. Haven't looked at it since so there's no telling what's on there.

The last time I was at Sebring in 2002 I passed up on another iconic car just because I didn't know what it was. Parked as part of an exhibition was one of the six Shelby Daytona Coupes. Today I would kill for the chance to see and photograph one but back then its just sitting in the background




I found this video on YT and its what has me fired up on finding a GTO
