    We rented a condo years ago in Sebring while they were testing. It was awesome. You’d be out on the back deck and as soon as you heard the engines roar we’d drive up (not even 10 mins.) to the track and almost go wherever you wanted to watch the cars.

    Beautiful B-roll: the falcon in its nest, the A-10 flying overhead, and "foregrounding" the background: the gorgeous Florida sunset. I love the closeup on the track itself: the treacherous pavement edge and the sand trap just beyond. Who will successfully navigate past that trap? Who will fall in and break their cars? Great job. 🙂
