Entry list revealed for HSR Classic 24 and Daytona Historics

Historic Sportscar Racing recently released the official entry list to date for the Ninth Running of the HSR Classic Daytona presented by IMSA, the nation’s premier 24-hour race for historic and vintage sports cars that returns to Daytona International Speedway, November 1-5.

This year’s edition of the HSR Classic Daytona 24 has attracted the usual triple-digit entry of former race winners and debuting contenders as well as a stout lineup for the HSR Daytona Historics, the Classic 24 companion event that is a points-paying round for HSR’s season-long racing series and championships.

One of the entries of note headed to Daytona is the 1998 Ferrari 333 SP of Graham Adelman that was prepared and maintained in its prime by Doran Racing and Kevin Doran, who will be back at the helm again at the Classic 24. The Ferrari twice competed in the Rolex 24 in 1999 and 2000, co-driven each time by Fredy Lienhard, Didier Theys and Mauro Baldi, with two-time Indianapolis 500 winner Arie Luyendyk joining the squad the first year.

First held in 2014, the immediate success of the inaugural HSR Classic Daytona 24 called for a second running in 2015. After a year off, the 24-Hour classic race on the 3.56-mile DIS road course returned in 2017 and is now an annual fixture on the HSR calendar.
