Le Mans 2016 - June 18th and 19th, 2016


I am definitely in, i have been planning on going for 1 year (see Saint Ho's posts), would be great to go as a group and show our support!
 
At one time Ford owned their own Travel Agency too.

And its own rubber plantations in the Amazon Rainforest.

I'm hoping that we will be offered a total package that includes insurance, shipping, import fees and all other miscellaneous charges and taxes that go along with sending our cars to Europe! - plus the lodging and program for the period. I was expecting this to be presented to us at last year's, and then this year's rally, but alas, I have seen nothing presented yet!

There is very little time left to accomplish all of this, and I think we deserve some consideration so that we can make our expense and travel plans!

So far - I'm disappointed!

I think we need to have some facts presented to us regarding the total package - and SOON!

No taxes to worry about if the car is over there for less than six months
 
Dang Ralphie. There are many complex moving parts to this, particularly with Ford's involvement.

Understatement.

Keep in mind, the 2016 race program wasn't even official until 89 days ago. There will be opportunities available that simply cannot be accomplished by anyone other than an OEM that is participating in the race, and that dictates the program.

Again, if you can't wait, I urge you to make alternative arrangements. The dates are public.
 
Whatever Dave. What have you done for us lately?
 
Complainers to the back of the line!:biggrin

Waiting with bated breath on the details. Would love to go
 
When this first came up I told the wife. She said "that would be awesome, let's go!" :eek I couldn't believe it.

Didn't take long to determine that shipping the car was out, but still. Now that my chances of getting a NFGT went from 0 to 0.000000001 I'm torn. The cost of this trip would pay the taxes. Ugh. :willy

268 days, 1hour ,47 mins to go. Would like to attend via a Ford Performance/Ford GT Forum package. Looking forward to info when available.

Thanks to Ford and Dave for working on this and hopefully making it possible!
