Got it here to! Wonder what the lineup of cars is? I'm hoping we'll have quite a few cool rides along for the fun. I know Tom Mabey has a GT as well so that should be at least 3.

Uh oh!

Done :biggrin

Though I will be turning it down a few hundred after we're done so I don't scare my old man too bad.

Today at MMP we had serious fun on the road course. Shelby#18 and I had two of the fastest cars there. He went 160mph down the straight and I hit 173, that includes letting off early because they didn't want anyone getting too hairy.

I think this is the 1st photo of a GTX1 with a hard top that I have seen, other than the ones Genaddi had. Any more out there?

Is it too early to start thinking about next year? This looks like an event that I would like to make. :thumbsup

They announced the dates and price for next year on the last day and let everyone who wanted put down a deposit. They said it won't get much bigger so it will be quite hard to get in new entries.

BlackICE,

There are approximately in the teens of cars with tops. I have heard that many of them still needed work after Genaddi delivered them. Mine was not finished, and had no back window, but I needed something for this trip. It had no hardware and the two side panels were in primer. (My painter said it was a Rustoleum type product they used. So when the paint was applied it just wrinkled off.) Also there was a minimum amount of weather-stripping so the thing leaks like a sieve. So far I'm in $2,000 for repairs, and will have to spend some more to get it right. :frown

All the best....
Rick

I am sorry to hear that, I feared that was the case. They look so nice in the pictures. I know a GTX1 owner that is trying to get some sort of top before the Rally.
