I haven't seen a published agenda for our upcoming event at Salt Lake City, and Miller Motorsports Park. If anyone has one, could you please post it on line or send it to me at: akjducati@gmail.com Thanks, this will be the first event I've attended (didn't have a GT till this January) and want as much info as is avail, to make the most of this special time. Do we Check In at any special place, what time is the track open, etc.
Thanks in advance for anyones help

Many are looking for this info, as well - they are loosely planned, but be sure you're looking under Ford GT National Rally; when it pops up, that's where to find it.

Welcome, Andy -

I look forward to meeting you at the Rally - Agendas are sometimes hard to come by, but we will probably go to the track (Miller Motorsports Park) on Wednesday and Thursday, and have a cruise and dinner on Friday - that's the minimum - Dave (DBK) will eventually publish an agenda.

Here is YOUR schedule - buy everyone a drink as you are the newbie. Ask tpraceman and Majic how they got stuck last year. It is a tradition started at Rally II. Welcome aboard. Avoid StormCat unless you have catnip or kitty treats with you.

Wednesday is a full day and it will be our only early day. On Wednesday you'll get a detailed schedule for the rest of the event including the availability of museum tours, the Friday road rally (route won't be handed out in advance :wink ), etc. Just be there on Wednesday and be prepared to have a good time! :cheers:

And don't forget, ALWAYS avoid the red car with white stripes and Illinois plates on the track!

Andy -

Congratulations on getting a GT, and welcome to the group!
Gotta watch out for Ralphie and Dr. Frank - they both drive Red GTs, and are always anxious to prove that Red GTs are the FASTEST! :biggrin

Thanks DBK for the good info, and that helps me start to sort this out. Can't wait to get back home, get the new tires on the car, pack it (lightly) and drive out to
Utah...Looking forward to this event and meeting fellow enthusiasts !!
