Joe and list. In terms of historic significance, the most logical choice
is Sebring. It is Sebring's 60th anniversary of the 12 Hour. Triumph
had a strong presence at the track over the years. Kas was a major
player at the track with the TR effort (and with Nissan if we dare say
that word), FOT member Ed Diehl drove the race in one of the factory
TR4's, etc. Downside is the 12 Hour is a very busy week-end and
depending on support races track time is ??? But, if you want to be
part of a truly historic event, this is worth looking at. No where else
will you be able to show the cars in front of 100,000 + people . Ted
