Last flight of Discovery.  Two more shuttle launches after that.

You've only got to spend 5 minutes on sebringfans.com to realize that, while many of them may be knowledgeable fans, this race is mostly a drinking binge with some noisy cars in the background.
The focus (on that site) on alcohol consumption is really kind of depressing. I'm kind of amazed (and disappointed) that track management doesn't do anything to try and go a bit more upmarket.
If I wanted to hang with drunken louts I'd go to a British premier league game.

It popped out of the top of the clouds to leave a little bit of smoke trail before the SRBs stopped burning.  Not much to see from St. Pete.

Thanks!  It's coming in over Sarasota, there's a small chance of seeing it from here (St. Pete).

Was watching the feed and it was already across the state when we heard the booms in St. Pete.
