Just the fact that we work for a Honda dealer makes it pretty obvious that most of us here at DCH Gardena Honda are huge motor sports fans! This weekend is the official end of winter hibernation for us gear heads, at least those of us the follow the four wheeled action, with the 12 Hours of Sebring kicking off tomorrow. For well over 4 decades the biggest names in racing have cut their (racing) teeth on the tarmac at one of the nations oldest continued races. Sebring's 12-hour enduro usually serves as "dress rehearsal" for Le Mans, the brutal 3.7-mile circuit is the toughest road racing facility in the world and is an ideal place to "shakedown" unproven cars before the French 24-hour classic. Returning American Le Mans Series champ Highcroft Racing’s newly developed Honda Performance Development ARX-01e prototype is anticipated to be a strong contender this year with the fifth fastest practice times right behind the powerhouse teams of Audi and Peugeot. Although Honda's efforts on the two wheeled tracks started a few weeks ago, we are so excited to see some four wheel racing fury and this year is set to be an awesome one! Read more about the Highcroft Racing Team here and follow them on facebook here for all the up to the minute action from Sebring! More than likely the TV's on the showroom here at DCH Gardena Honda will be set to the racing, just dont tell the boss! :)
