Sebring Fans

I had a bad feeling when sebring announced the partnership with Ticketmaster. Of course there are scalpers trying to sell tickets for double on stubhub.

But what worries me is that it is the end of a collectible ticket. When you guys get in Wednesday, let me know if they are giving you a ticket or if it’s all digital now.

If it’s all digital, with the money they saved, you should get an NFT from a great Motorsport artist like Rodger Warrick.

Long live LaBamba!

Celebrating 28 Years of La Bomba Racing at Sebring!

Welcome back to Sebring 2025! This year marks a special milestone for one of the most legendary race party cruisers on the circuit—La Bomba Racing! 🎉

The La Bomba crew has been a Sebring staple for 28 years, bringing energy, creativity, and a whole lot of fun to the track. But their story goes back even further…

It all started in 1981, when a group of race fans from Sarasota transformed an old AMC Gremlin into a rolling party cruiser for the 12 Hours of Sebring. From there, they upgraded to a yellow Pontiac 6-door stretch limo—the original La Bomba!

Evolution of La Bomba:
🏁 La Bomba 1 – The Pontiac limo that started it all (RIP, blown motor).
🏁 La Bomba 2 – A Cadillac Seville, decked out with a tuna tower and a nautical theme.
🏁 La Bomba 3 – The ultimate art car: an old circus parade float, rebuilt and reborn in 1997.

After salvaging the float from a Sarasota Shriners’ field, the crew took on the challenge of restoring it—replacing the drivetrain, reworking the front end, and even making it a class project at Sarasota Vo-Tech. Today, La Bomba is officially registered as a 1996 “built-from-parts pickup truck” in Florida. And yes—it still drives to Sebring every year, making the trip from Sarasota in under three hours! 🚛💨

Why We Do It:
“For us, it’s about tradition, creativity, and keeping the Sebring spirit alive,” says longtime crew member Matthew Greenwood. “People always honk, cheer, and give us a thumbs up on the way. It’s a real hoot!”

Over the years, many legendary art cars have rolled through Sebring—like Zoo Crew, Mr. Badwrench, Pit Crew, Fun Bus, and the unforgettable Run Aground (a boat-car on a Jeep chassis). But La Bomba lives on!

So here’s to 28 years of LaLa Bomba RacingIf you see us rolling through Green Park this year, give us a wave, grab a drink, and celebrate another unforgettable 12 Hours of Sebring! 🏁
