'06 Watkins Glen Grand Prix Festival 9/8/06

Anyone else signed up for this year's event ?...I've signed up for the Founder's Tour leaving from the winerey in Hammondsport, ending at the Glen with two laps of the 6.6 mile "Old Course" that made Watkins Glen famous for racing all over the world.

For more info on what all goes on at this event follow the link below...over 20,000 people attended last year. This year the Marque car is Porche, I last participated in 2002 when the MINI/Mini was the marque...it is great fun !!

Sadly, I have to work that weekend this year, but it was a lot of fun last year. I'm sure there will be a few other local Minis there, (look for the DS Checkmate Mini from Trumansburg and the Cool Blue convertible from near the Glen, and a few Miniacs in Toyota 4 Runners.

Beaver Dams, NY...you've got to meet her...she's a lot of fun!

...and we'll be there (with the aforementioned 4-Runner) for the vintage races up at the track. This year at the track it's the 40th anniversaries of Can-Am and Trans-Am.
