Any one here racing at Sebring?

Post by 77SportSpider »

I went to the 12 hrs of Sebring a couple weeks ago, and saw this 124 running in the historic series. Any one here own/drive it? Never made it through that part of the padock to get an up-close view, but it looked good from far away. No clue how it did in the race.

I found the list of entries for the race. The driver is John Tremblay of Orlando, Fl. Apparently the car is a 72. Looks like he finished 26 of 36, and there were also 5 DNFs.

Info on the series here:

Looks like the same car, all right, but not a '72 with those door handles and marker lights. Shouldn't he have a front hoop on that roll cage for SCCA? Maybe vintage cars have a different requirement.

Good call. I got the '72 model year from the race results page, didn't think to look at the details of the car.

The series they were running was SVRA, not sure what their roll cage rules are.
