While much credit is of course focused on our leader, DBK, it was mentioned to me several times, by Ford team members, that there is no way much of what we experienced would not have happened with out great effort by my good friend Mark McGowan. So thank you.

There were also many other dedicated Ford team, current and former, members that quietly gave their time and effort to participate.

This was a huge event with access that might be unprecedented, for a group of our size. What an honor to have been there!
 
Agreed totally with Andy on Mark's contribution. I talked with Mark that morning and could see the nervous anticipation of going to " his house". Pulling into the proving grounds and on to the track and seeing all the employees outside watching this parade was an unbelievable experience.
 
Really couldn't have hoped for a nicer event. thanks to all.

Well said, for some reason I think Mark has a lot of fun at the Rally's. His enthusiasm is contagious!
 
I'm not sure it will ever sink in that I can call Mark, Scott, Tom, Rich, Dennis, Rich and of course Camilo my friend. No words to describe how unbelievable and lucky we all are. Sooooooooooo great.

Very well said Vince as I and I am sure everyone else totally agrees
 
We all witnessed many happenings that are not offered any group including Ford Dealers. Unheard of experiences were afforded every Member of our Forum that attended Rally 10. Thank You to Dave, Mark and all the employees of Ford Motor Co. I will never forget the waves, grins and thumbs up and clapping at Marks Home Grounds as 100+ Ford GT's circled the track numerous times. Those employees were just,as excited as we were. What we experienced just isn't done.... Those that missed out I feel sorry for. Thanks to all who made this experience happen. I'm still Pumped and looking forward to next year.

Thanks to Mark and all the Ford employees and executives that made such a remarkable event happen. It seemed like a month of activities all enjoyed in just 3 days! Still recovering and looking forward to the next one! Thanks again! Richard S.
 
I couldn't agree more. Thank you for all that you have done for us!

Ditto what everyone else said--it was a pleasure and privilege to get this level of access and treatment. Thanks, Mark and all the other Ford personnel who made it happen.
 
Thanks so much to Mark for taking the time to escort me and Camillo with our cars out of the track while the rides were going on. he escorted us right out to Oakwood with a 2 way radio to track security. he is definetley the man at Ford's test track. Special thanks to Andrea and Dave Robertson who put on a special show for us on the track. it was ground shaking!!! p.s. the front lead car that was the fastest with the red trim at the bottom-was driven by Andrea! she doesn't even let Dave or anyone else drive her car!!! awsome lady! So many others to thank and especially Dave of course. I've put on 1 day shows at WHQ and other places so can't imagine the work and planning for a week's show like Rally X. It was also great to put faces with so many names I've talked to and emailed for years. Thanks to all !!!

Mark always contributes a ton more than he receives. A very special man that we are all lucky to know.

Supports the rally on his vacation days. Will stop and talk with anyone about anything. Have never seen anything but a smile from him.
A true "class" act.
Thank you for everything you have done to support us at the Rally, on this great Forum, and for Ford !
