 SEBRING,
Florida (March 4, 2010) – The long wait (and we hope the winter too) is
over – it’s time for Spring Break and the annual trek south to the 12 Hours
of Sebring. True, it has not been so warm in Florida this year as we are
wont to see; however, even in our warm clothes we look forward to blooms and
green leaves we will not see up here until Le Mans – and a good look at the
beautiful cars that have been prepared for our delectation all winter.
Following a successful Winter Test, anticipation and interest are building
as we get a look at the initial entry list for the greatest and most
demanding endurance race in America.
