I now have a business meeting in Chicago on the 9th. I know the offical part of the show is most likely sold out - but if there´s any pre race activities thursday and friday I would love to join in. It would be pretty easy for me to fly from Chicago to Atlanta and rent a car.

Any ideas welcome

Thanks
Anders
Would love to see u!

Dammm, should be an epic gathering! Booked a cycling trip in Italy over a year ago! Good luck to ford on its last race! Being at Lemans In 16 and having Ford win on its 50th anniversary was an experience of a lifetime! Enjoy all! Post many photos! Go Ford!!!

I’ve done both the Dolomites and Sicily bike trips with Vermont Bike Tours in the past. Tuscany and Amalfi Coast still on my list. Happy pedaling and wine drinking!

Welcome to the forum Scanman! The event is full but maybe you can be on a wait list? If not there are always smaller events being organized in your area by forum members. Or you can organize one also!

The follow up to my post in the General Discussion if anyone is bringing their 2005-6 GT to Petit LeMans and would like to get the airbag recall done there, send me an email richgtguy@gmail.com and I will see if we can get parts in time for me to do them at the event. Either at the hotel or at the track. If all goes well each car takes about an hour, plus B.S. time. LOL
As of now my plan is to arrive in Atlanta the evening of Thursday, Oct 10.


I know its late notice but in order for part of this to happen in Atlanta I need to order parts by this Friday 9-27-19 by 3pm.

Has anyone verified truck/trailer parking? I know last year they let us park behind the hotel, but I don’t want to take it for granted...

Ok - I am the worlds biggest and dumbest boyfriend. My significant other initially couldn’t get off work for Atlanta when I registered. A couple weeks later she was able to get off. I bought her airfare but totally forgot to get her a vip hospitality ticket. So dumb...

so long story short, does anybody have an extra ticket or is anybody unable to go at the last minute? I will pay dearly to avoid paying dearly and would be eternally grateful if anybody can help a dummy out?

thanks, Frank the Tank

All,
Some of you asked for access to a mobile detailer for the event. I have no personal knowledge of this company, but it seems to have the best Google and Yelp reviews. I contacted them and they are willing to support the event.
678-274-9817
Please book directly with them.
