61st 12 Hours of Sebring

sebringWhile coming as no surprise, Audi re-wrote the history books Saturday with a dominant victory in the 61st Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring.

The German manufacturer took its pair of R18 e-tron quattros, making their U.S. race debuts, to a convincing 1-2 sweep in the final outing for P1 cars in America’s oldest endurance race.

But the story of the around-the-clock endurance classic, which opened the 15th and final season of the American Le Mans Series, came with late-race battles in three other categories, which saw class wins for Corvette Racing (GT), PR1/Mathiasen Motorsports (PC) and Alex Job Racing (GTC). Level 5 Motorsports, meanwhile, claimed the win in P2.

Everyday Hero: Racing to Help Children

20130311-235415.jpg

BayNews 9 – POLK COUNTY — Every day, a Polk County teen gets to live his dream, racing trucks against big competition all across the country.

Dylan Martin also races for another reason – to make sure other children can live out their dream, regardless of disability or age.

The 15-year-old Lakeland boy drives the No. 7 Pro Truck Series truck in most races.

“I was running quarter midgets for the national circuit,” he said. “I did that for three years. Then, when I turned 12 or 13, I jumped into a truck.”

He often meets with children to show them they can achive their goals by working hard. He recently went to the Sunshine Foundation’s Dream Village in Davenport, where he showed his vehicle and helmet and talked about good driving.
