Historic Sportscar Racing (HSR), in association with the Historic Motor Sports Association (HMSA) and Vintage Racing Events (VRE), has announced that the first 24-hour endurance race for vintage racecars in North America will take place at the famed Daytona International Speedway November 12-16, 2014.
The “Classic 24 at Daytona” will honor all the great cars and drivers that have participated in the endurance sports car races held on Daytona’s 3.56-mile infield road course since 1962 when Dan Gurney won the three-hour Daytona Continental in the Arciero Lotus 19B-Climax. Since then, Daytona’s enduros have produced some of history’s most spectacular races, featuring great marques such as Ferrari, Porsche, BMW, Jaguar, Ford, Chevrolet, Nissan, Toyota, Lola and Riley.
