12 HOURS OF SEBRING FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL GRAND PRIX 56894
1,527 views
Save
Presented by Gulf Oil, 12 HOURS OF SEBRING presents the Florida International Grand Prix of Endurance. It was produced by Nathan Zucker and shows the 1963 race. In the field you'll see the Ferrari 250P, 330 TRI/LM, 250 GTO, Jaguar E-type, Chevrolet Corvette, Shelby Cobra, Chaparral 1 Corvette, Triumph TR4, Morgan Plus 4, Osca 1600 GT, Alfa Romeo,
Abarth-Simca, Porsche, Lotus TVR and Austin MG. The film also shows women participating in the sport, including as pit crew and as drivers. A full list of race results can be seen at:
.racingsportscars.com%2Fresults%2FSebring-1963-03-23.html&v=2Lox0_pe3KQ&event=video_description For the international members of the automotive press in attendance that year the race held little significance other than it would be the first
race run under FIA’s new Manufacturer’s Championship rules. For American sports car fans making the annual trek to Sebring the significance of the ’63 race was that there would be a large contingent of American cars at Sebring to challenge the supremacy of the European cars. Fans of American sports car racing were hoping that this could be “their year.” Some
automotive historians designate 1963 as the first year of what many today refer to as The Ford – Ferrari War which lasted from 1963 to 1967. With six Ford-powered Cobras on the grid, including four from Shelby’s stables and one from Ford’s performance specialist, Holman Moody, this race certainly seemed like an opening salvo! The 12 Hours of Sebring is an
annual motorsport endurance race for sports cars held at Sebring International Raceway, on the site of the former Hendricks Army Airfield World War II air base in Sebring, Florida. The event is the second round of the United SportsCar Championship and in the past has been a round of the now defunct World Sportscar Championship, IMSA GT Championship and
American Le Mans Series. In 2012, the race was the opening event of the FIA World Endurance Championship. The track opened in 1950 on an airfield and is a road racing course styled after those used in European Grand Prix motor racing. The first race was a six-hour race on New Year's Eve 1950, with the next race held 14 months later as the first 12 Hours
of Sebring.[1] The race is famous for its "once around the clock" action, starting during the day and finishing at night. From 1953 to 1972 the 12 Hour was a round of the FIA’s premier sports car series which was contested under various names including the World Sportscar Championship and the International Championship for Makes. In its early years, the Sebring
circuit combined former airport runways with narrow two-lane service roads.[citation needed] The 1966 event was a turning point in Sebring history, as the facilities and the safety of the circuit were heavily criticized. Five people were killed during the race, which was more people killed than in the race's prior 15-year history combined.[citation needed] Bob McLean
crashed while approaching the hairpin; his car rolled several times, struck a utility pole and then exploded, landing in a ditch and killing McLean.[citation needed] In another incident Mario Andretti in his Ferrari 365 P2 tangled with Don Wester's Porsche 906 on the Warehouse Straight near the Webster Turns, killing four spectators and then crashing into a
warehouse next to the track. Subsequent to these events, the facilities were upgraded and the circuit layout was changed, including eliminating the Webster Turns and creating the Green Park Chicane further down the track to move the straight further away from the airport warehouses.[citation needed] The circuit was made safer and there were no fatalities until
1980. It is known as preparation for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, as the track's extremely bumpy surface, combined with south-central Florida's perennial hot weather, is a test of a car's reliability. In recent years, six overall victories have been achieved by the Audi R8, one fewer than the record seven wins of the Porsche 935. We encourage viewers to add comments
and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment! See something interesting? Tell people what it is and what they can see by writing something for example: "01:00:12:00 -- President Roosevelt is seen meeting with Winston Churchill at the Quebec Conference." This film is part of the Periscope Film LLC archive, one of the largest historic military, transportation, and aviation stock footage collections in the USA.

1957 FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL 12 HOURS OF SEBRING GRAND PRIX OF ENDURANCE MOTOR RACE 54604

“12 To Go” covers the 1957 Florida International 12 Hour Grand Prix of Endurance of the Amoco Trophy. The sports car endurance race was held at Sebring International Raceway in Sebring, Florida. Mark
introduces us to David Ash, who between 1952 and 1957 earned the title of “Mr. MG’" as the only driver to start and finish five twelve-hour-long endurance
races at Sebring in five tries. Ash “pleads” with his wife to allow him to participate in the race and sets off from New York to Florida at mark
, pulling his racer behind him. Arriving at the racecourse at mark
, we watch Ash register and enter the line-up for a vehicle inspection before going over the course rules. Meanwhile, mechanics are shown tinkering
with cars at mark
for peak performance, and at mark
we get an aerial view of the track. Walking through the pits we see Jaguars, Ferraris, Alfa Romeros, and others along with drivers such as Carroll Shelby (mark
), Juan Manuel Fangio, Harry Schell, and Donald Healey. The race is on starting at mark
and we see aerial views of the cars
maneuvering hairpin turns and speeding down straightaways. Ash makes a pitstop at mark
as the race grinds on. The narrator details the action onscreen including an explanation of car colors at mark
(such as red for Italian entries, green for British cars, white for American, silver for German, and blue for French). Night begins to fall at mark
as the race rolls on and headlights peer from the darkness of the screen. Fireworks fill the sky at mark
signaling the end of the race, as Fangio claims victory for the second consecutive year. As the film comes to a close, we watch Ash (who finished second in his class) load up his car at mark
and head out on the long drive home. The 12

The 1957 Corvette SS 'concept car', was built in order to race at the 24 Hours of LeMans. Two chassis were built, 'the Mule' and the car to be raced. Its first race would be the test for its preparations at LeMans. This race at the 12 Hours of Sebring would determine whether it could take on the world at LeMans. Famed engineer, Zora Arkus-Duntov, had lead a team
of engineers to build this ultra-lightweight (1850 lbs) and powerful (307 horsepower) racing car. They were inspired by the Mercedes 300SL Gullwing and the Birdcage Maserati. To keep weight down, they used a magnesium body that surrounded a tubular steel frame with coil-over-shock front suspension, a de Dion rear axle and aluminum drum brakes. Its fuel-injected
small-block V8 could turn out 307 horsepower at 6,400 RPM. Great Cars MR QT S669

under practice conditions. The results was astonishing: Fangio completed a full lap a full

General Motors recruited engineer and race car driver, Zora Arkus Duntov, to help them inject some performance into their brands. Duntov wanted to make the Corvette competitive with sports cars from Europe like Ferrari and Maserati. To gain respect it needed to win on the track. He organized a team to build the SS or "Experimental Corvette" and took it to Sebring.

Rest In Peace Chris! I'll never forget you.
Kingfisher 312
Have looked for years for this on Youtube. Remember so well as a young boy when this came on ABC's Wide World of Sports Saturday broadcast with renowned Chris Economaki reporting. Before the start, Chris commented on how fast the little "Italian Buzz Bomb" was, Chris qualifying it on pole. Since I was 4 years old, I always had loved those red Ferraris, but that brand new 312P wasabsolutely drop-dead gorgeous. I bemoaned Chris Amons' lack of a victory during the 1968 Grand Prix season after so many tantalizingly close and promising contests. Even teammate Jacky Ickx won for Ferrari at Rouen, but Amon was snake-bit. I so hoped for he and Mario Andretti to win this race for Ferrari at Sebring in March of 69'. It was electrifying to see that scarlet red beauty
absolutely flying down Sebring's straightaways. Despite the pole position advantage squandered, it was captivating to see Amon reeling them in. Sadly in the end, due to a safety cone's interference (thrown out onto the course by another competitor) and resulting damage to the air inlet for the radiator, the overheating issue cost them a most deserved victory, winding up 2nd behind Amon's old
teammate; Jacky Ickx. A hell of a result in spite of their misfortune. A wonderful and bittersweet memory for me of a beautiful car piloted by 2 extremely quick and talented drivers. Rest In Peace Chris! I'll never forget you.
