Title: More Fame For Turn 10 & YFDS - Don't read if Sick of Sebring
Post by: Doris on April 11, 2006, 10:28:58 am
Like they're not famous enough already.......

Whilst working hard at the pub last night I was flicking through the bosses Top Gear mag and found their write up about this year's Floridian Race. 

They have Turn 10 down as 'terrible Turn Ten, the epicentre of race-day debauchery'. 

Also lurking in the pages of the race report is a pic of the YFDS sign along with a caption reading 'Hero-worship not stomached in Sebring's freakish infield'.

See you next year for more debauchery.   ;D ;D ;D

Cool!  ;D 

Any chance of someone posting or e-mailing me a scan of said page?  Amazon.com wants $160+ for 12 months and you can't buy a single issue.  I've never seen it on newstands, though we can get F1 Racing for $8.  ::)

Thanks Doris!

Terrible Turn 10 ? Are you kidding me? Well I guess bad ink is better than no ink.

I would like to see a copy also.

If anyone has this magazine, please can they scan it for us. I read some of the article in ASDA but decided against paying nearly £4 just for a 4 page article as I wouldn't have read anything else in there.

I know Elvis too that they spoke of, so would like to e mail the scans to him.

Thanks

I had the issue in my hand today in a car nut store in Rotterdam. Since I have a subscribtion on the Dutch version, I didn't buy it, because I think it will be in the Dutch issue as well.

Bought a book on Sebring instead and spent half an hour talking about cars and races with the shop owner. Nice guy, I'll be back.

BTW, Lee: are you going to Petit this year as well?

Pieter,
By all means, if you can do the Petit and Sebring in one year...go for it!
The best money you'll ever spend.  If someone said to me, "You can go to Le Mans but will have to skip Sebring & the Petit....Or?  have Sebring & the Petit and pass on the Sarthe?....Its a no  brainer!  Give me the Florida sun and Georgia hills any day!

Well, not having a wife or girldfriend does make life easier and cheaper. And a higher year bonus than expected doesn't get in the way either, so this year I might do all three. Although Petit is on the same day as the A1GP in Zandvoort, it's hurricane season in September and I'm also interested in the Bathurst 1000 in Australia in November. I've read a story on that in Top Gear magazine and the party over there is pretty wild. And the track is nothing like you've ever seen before, really great! It's just bloody far away (and therefore bloody expensive!), but it's definitely on my "to do in life list".

Well it was a very welcome sight.

I was on a 4 day long train journey and had run outta cash for food n drink.. so had to get off at the front of the train, leg it up the high street to the ATM and get back to station before train left again... otherwise i woulda been totally bu**ered and lost my luggage and everything i possessed on that continent and a 3/4 day wait for the next train!

So on a scale of 1 - 10 it was certainly right up there at the top of ATMs I have visited!  If you get to the races go n visit it Pieter.....

Fair point Steve, does help to be living on the same chunk of real estate.
A little bit of venting at the ACO with my remark too for what they've done to the circut at Le Mans.
Pieter, the 'Canes don't really impact Georgia much unless they get some rain from them once they head north over land and fizzle out, but we've been fortunate over the years, never been a wet Petit yet.  That said, Rita threw a big wrench into Matt's Petit plans a couple of years ago.

Pieter,
I wish it was a funny story, but it isn't. A couple of years ago when Matt drove his Vette all the way from Orlando to Road Atlanta for the Petit, he got a call from the Missus saying that Hurricane Rita (or whatever it's name was) had turned toward Orlando, this being on the heels of Charlie, which bullseyed O-Town.  So as a result, one hour into the Petit, Matt had to pack up and head back home.

Hi Pieter,
            Petit is well worth a visit more racing crowd but still a good party. it's only 18 hours from my house
a mere walk in the park for the week end ::)
Hope to make it too this year.

^ I already bought my plane ticket and rented my car for the Petit.  ;D

BTW - I now have the scans of the Top Gear article, but I can't find my copy of .PDF maker and the .JPG scans are 3mb each (x4).  If someone has the ability to resize them while retaining most of the quality, I can e-mail them to you.  I can host them once they're resized.

(I tried it using Irfanview and they look like *****.)

I use Irfanview.  It's small, free, and extremely easy to use.

The scans I was given are crap.  Irfanview can't correct a poor quality image, nor can it sample/filter it to a smaller byte count while keeping the physical size the way Adobe seems to be able to.

For resizing photos, Irfanview is fine.  And did I mention that it's FREE?

If you email them to me I'll resize and mail back
send to: lee@selfstudio.com

at 3Mb each, send each image in its own email (1 of 4) (2 of 4)
so no issues for mail host.

look forward to seeing them.

and see you at Petit! The storm he left for was Jeanne. She meandered around the bahamas for a week then did a 180 and headed straight for florida. I headed out Friday night... One of our crew is a firechief in Ocala and he was recalled earlier that day as well. and Ronnie busted out with him to make it back to West Palm.

Thats the one Lee, Rita was last year right after Kat.
After a while they begin to all run together.
Highly recommend the Petit to anyone who's never been before, like Phil said more of a racing crowd but still a great party, and the best spectating venue anywhere.

I stayed for the race.Ikept calling my wife,and she was not even aware the
storm was headed that way.Whenever I called to check she kept saying its on the other coast,so dont worry about coming back.That was Wed.to Sat. afternoon.By that time she must have started actually watching the weather and her mood had quickly changed.Now it was why are you not home or headed home.It was about 4:00 pm and I was getting pretty hammered by then,and there was no way Iwas driving  9 hours after Ihave been drinking.
So I left Sun. morning at 6:00am headed home.I drove directly through the HURRICANE  all the way home.Had to have been one of the scariest things I have ever done in my life.I-75 was deserted, it was only me and three other travelers that were in the same boat I was where they HAD to get home.We convoyed in case something happened to one of us,we would pull over at every rest area[pickle park] develope enough courage to continue and drive on.Quite a hair raising experience that I will not ever do again. ;D

I've been watching this thread for a few days now, and I can't seem to put the article by this guy  Richard out of my mind.  Is he talking about MY Turn 10?  At Sebring?  He can't possibly be.  A little journalistic integrity Richard if you please.  It's quite obvious you have never been to Turn 10 to enjoy our great BBQ...to enjoy the best view of the track from our scaffolding...to meet and enjoy the company of other dedicated race fans from around the world who make Turn 10 their preferred destination when coming to the greatest sports car race in North America.
It's not just that you missed the point Richard...you took a hard left.  To call Turn 10 the "Heart of Darkness"..."Terrible Turn 10"..."The Epicenter of Race Day Debauchery"...and Turn 10 having a "Black Heart" smacks of slander at its highest level.  Over the years, Turn 10 has been praised by drivers, crews, and visitors from all over the world as a family friendly, welcome respite from the Florida heat, a place where I can and DO bring my kids and grandkids.  Yes Grandkids.  If you had ever visited Turn 10...as other world famous journalists have...John Brooks and Brian Labin come to mind...you would not be calling us names.  Rather, you would ask if you could come back next year.Over the years, Turn 10 has worked at being a fun place to visit.  No debauchery.  No black heart.  Just a Great slide show on Friday nite hosted by author and famed artist Lee Self. 
Richard, I'm offering you an invitation to join us at Teriffic Turn 10 next year(since it's obvious by your column you were never there).  Tip one or two with us...enjoy the view and great racing at the best corner on the track, and let us change your mind about Turn 10.  And then print a retraction (if you believe in journalistic integrity).

Quite right! As a recipient of the legendary Turn 10 hospitality in '05, I can only echo what John says. Maybe it's just sloppy use of English, maybe we're reading into it things that weren't intended and being a bit touchy. Maybe it's jouralistic licence or maybe the guy was genuinely pissed off by someone from Turn 10. Who knows? But either we're all missing the point here or somebody from Top Gear really ought to be making a bloody good case for the defence.

Chris and A Zarse esq....Thanks for agreeing with me.  I don't think I'm being just a little too picky.  Turn 10 has worked hard over the years to develop a good reputation.  To have that good reputation blown away by some journalistic wannabe just struck me the wrong way.  Would love to contact Top Gear and at least turn them on to this thread. Would like to know what issue that was in, and what is Richard's last name.

Got to consider the source, when I read something in a motoring publication any more, I do knowing damn well that the motor racing knowledge of ninety percent of the hacks out there wouldn't fill a thimble.  The guy probably spent most of his weekend sipping free booze in someone's
hospitality tent or in the air conditioned press box.  Someone probably told him he should go out to the Green Park and take in the sights and he probably assumed there were human sacrifices and pagan rituals taking place at Turn 10.  Seriously doubt if this dude ever made out there.  Probably couldn't wait to get back to his F1 butt-buddies and gossip about Jensen Button's latest hairstyle.

And I quote:  "Sebring is a breath of fresh air in a sport that's all-too-publicly losing its way, and proof positive that top-level racing and un-selfconscious, hair-down fun can exist in the same universe. "

I hope you carry a ball as well Gab!!

In a previous job, I had to drive around areas collecting monies. I used t carry a baseball bat in the car in case of "problems". I got stopped by the police one day and they asked why I had the bat. I was honest, told them what I did and why I carried it. Their reply was "I fully understand where you are coming from sir and that it is only for self protection, but make sure you carry a ball as well. On it's own, it's an offensive weapon. With a ball, it's a piece of sporting equipment. Be Safe!"  ;)

There isn't an autograph session as such but some teams set up a table for a while during the all day friday open pitlane walkabout. Perhaps someone like corvette wouldn't mind if you set up a table at the front of their area and did a signing session. I will ask .

Thanks Chris. P.M. Randy, Mike our myself with any info you can find. If it would be offensive we will bag the idea.

Hey what would be offensive about Team Impala doing an autograph session in the  pitlane. If its set up behind the pit barriers in a team area with the teams permission, then theres nothing the ACO can say really.

I will enquire with our contacts at Pratt and Miller if they would mind if you set up for an autograph session on the Friday.
