I last ran it in 2004, there were some Formula Fords there gunning for the FTD. One of them had a turbo on his 4 cyl engine. My idea was to buy an old Star Mazda and put a Turbo Rotary in it.
Then a guy showed up last year in a Factory Five Cobra and missed FTD by 1 second and it was his 1st time there.
The trick is to have a really fast car that can handle well in the cones. It just needs to beet cheeks to the next set, that S4 has a lot of potential of being a FTD car there, all you need is for the open wheel cars to have 1 bad year and it happens.
A few go off each year the results are not pretty, this is really not for the faint of heart. I would never run my 911 in this. My RX7 I can replace the body on cheaply.
This M3 met the mangroves.

These guys blew their tranny during Saturday practice and ran back up to Ft. Lauderdale that night picked up a spare and came back and installed it in time for the race Sunday.
This guy comes out every year:
Some pics from another guy on another forum from this year.
What happens to your nice car when you meet the mangroves:
Think you can get FTD? These guys beg to differ...
