Barry Sumner, Ian Sumner and Jack Bellinger are taking Barry's 1953 Plus 4,Black Sheep, to race at Daytona and Sebring in November.

Black Sheep has displayed some formidable potential at BDC Silverstone this year.

Barry is going to update their adventure with a blog on the new website:
https://www.blacksheepsebring.com

Surely the team will require a team of crack professional photographers to record every moment of the journey?

I can recommend a suitable business whose rates are extremely competitive.

Great Stuff! Wonderful!

Barry Sumner is not a man to be underestimated - Beware if he ever says to you ..."I've been thinking" or "I've got an idea"...

I recommend reading 'About Barry' under The Team heading on the website. In addition his help and loyalty is unrivalled, on occasion he has supplied more than half the team for the Birkett 6-hour.

Good Luck guys, keep us updated and - Have Fun

I'm sure they do Bob, but join the queue behind the regular Birkett Team Manager!

Of course it is!!!!

Did you doubt it???

No doubt he is feeling a little sheepish, Mary.

Andy, Bob.
I did thing about doing the Daytona 24hr and Sebring 12hr, but sensibly thought, (when have I done sensible - don't answer that) that might all be a stretch to far in our rooky year.
But what if - why not !!! form an orderly queue.

Barry. What are you worried about? Black Sheep is nowhere near as old as I am, and I'm still (barely) going,. You ask; When have I been sensible ..... When were you ever 'orderly' queue wise or whatever.
Any way I wish you the best of all British luck, show hem Yanks how its done.

When 1 MOG ran there the marshals voted it 'Car of the Meeting', no reason why Shep* can't do the same.

* Not a mis-spelling.

Kind regards,
Bob.

Team Black Sheep boarded the plane this afternoon, so far so good!
Keep up to date with their adventures on their blog:

Is there any live feed/commentary we can watch or listen to of the two races?

Not sure Jim.

Maybe someone out there can research it?

I have just found this and am making further enquiries with the CSCC
