SEBRING — The Sebring Hall of Fame has announced its 2024 inductees. Sam and Miles Collier, Ron Fellows, John Fitzpatrick, The North American Auto Racing Team of Luigi Chinetti and Dr. Paul Wallace will join the prestigious list of prior inductees.

Brothers Sam and Miles Collier were pioneers of sports car road racing in the U.S. who played a key role in the origins of the 12 Hours of Sebring. In the 1930s they helped create the first road racing organization and later were involved with many of the early post-war races and were proponents of Alec Ulmann’s efforts to stage a race at Sebring. Sam Collier was killed at the Watkins Glen Grand Prix, and the first race at Sebring on Dec. 31, 1950, was named the Sam Collier Memorial Grand Prix of Endurance in his honor. The Collier legacy continues today under the direction of Miles Collier, Jr. In addition to the Miles Collier Collections of automobiles, he established the Revs Institute in Naples, Florida, among the world’s most comprehensive automotive libraries and archives.
