Talking with Dennis Olthoff today, he asked why there was no US based GT40 50th anniversary planned. Well the seed has been planted. Thanks Dennis!
Proposed: At the SVRA vintage event at Watkins Glen (site of the 1989 GT40 reunion) in September we will hold a get together for all GTs! This will be in conjunction with the SVRA event. SVRA would provide track time for all the GTs in attendance....parade laps, higher speed laps and of course vintage racing for the eligible cars.
We see an "all inclusive" event. All GTs are welcome; FAV, Gelscoe, Superformance, etc. And yes, replicas and even the 2005-2006 Ford GT will be included. We would have a dedicated parking area and as much on track time as possible.
And more than just the car event we could do some other activities. How about winery tours to some of the very nice Finger Lakes wineries in the area....via bus so you may partake with no worries. Also we want to have some family activities so all can be entertained. Perhaps a catered barbeque dinner one night under the stars!
If you are interested, with or without your GT, let me know so we can move on with planning. And non GT owners are welcome to participate!
Email me your level of interest: rick(at)timemachinesauto.com to possibly join us where the Gulf cars raced for a weekend of fun and companionship!
