Jack,
One of the key differences between the HSR Sebring Endurance Challenge
March 5-7 and the HSR Vintage Races that accompany the Superflo 12 hours of
Sebring on March 18-21 is that later race really doesn't have a group for
Formula cars. The March 5-7 event is run in typical HSR 3 day format, like
it was last year. The 12 hour weekend has a different format as Jeff
outlined. For your TR4, you might find the two events similar and similar
to last years Endurance challenge weekend. I think there might be a bit
more track time for the TR4 at the first event, but I am not sure. The
first one is also a Monoposto Racing event, so I'm going to the first one,
not the second.
