The Vintage Group included cars manufactured and prepared to 1972 and earlier racing specifications, while Historic Group entrants were cars with post-1970 specifications, regardless of year of manufacture and certain earlier cars deemed more appropriate for this group.<\/p>\n<p>Among the more than 100 entries at the 2012 running of the SVRA 12 Hours of Sebring were historic MGs to recent Sebring-winning Audi R8s, headlined by the 1967 Ford GT40 on Dan Mershon, 1969 Lola T70 Mk3B of Shelby Mershon, Doug Smith&#8217;s 1985 Jaguar XJR-7 and the aforementioned Audi R8 LMP of Travis Engen.
