Viper vs. Corvette vs. Possbily the Ford GT Auto-Cross Palm Spings

[AtomicGT]

I have been contacted by the So. Cal Viper Club President concerning an invitation for next March to included Ford GT owners in the Palm Springs Auto-X at the Riverside County Fairgrounds March, 2014. Viper Club owners are the current holders of the trophy, proceeds go to charities. Entrance fee $60.00/car. Vipers and Corvettes would like to challenge FGT owners. This is just a preliminary thread to see if any interest exists in racing these guys in Auto-X.

Sounds like fun, if there isn't too much snow in the driveway....

After the Auto-X is finished maybe we can get Mark Gerisch to drift in Piani's GTX again!

Haven't heard a peep about Mark for a long, long time.

Beware, the Corvettes take their parking lot cone racing very seriously.

There were about 19 Viper oweners at the event this year. I think they would be excited about some FGTs entering the fray.

Venue - Riverside County Fairgrounds

For those that want to spend either Fri and or Sat night;
There are 2 hotel choices:

Fantasy Springs Resort 84-245 Indio Springs Pkwy, Indio CA 92203

Clarion (Which is located right next door to the Fantasy Springs Resort (760) 342-6344

I will let the Viper guys know there is interest. Have no connection with the vette dudes. This would be March 2014.

I was about to tell one of my many old, bald men & Vette jokes but I realized many Forum members have Vettes.

I've been shaving my head for over 15 years, have had a plurality of Vettes, and in fact, have a Z06 in the barn now, but I get it - LOL
