Liked Barber...a lot...
Too bad that date was like...8 eight months ago...

(Maybe 2009???)

:borg:

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

LOL...I'm guessing 2009 too. Thanks for the heads up as I may make that since it's in Bamalama. Outlaws...er, in-laws...live 90 minutes away so I can kill two stones with one bird! :D

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

Thanks for that correction, yes that would be 2009 and not 2007.

At this point our local club will be one of the host clubs and as imagined we are thrilled at the chance to help pull this thing off.

As stated I'll try to keep everyone abreast of the things going on.

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

It is a great (and do mean great) venue. Good access, well paved, decent number of hotels within a reasonable distance, and a track to die for! The motocycle museum is incredible (over 1,000 bikes!). I'll be going back...whenever it might be!

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

If I'm still alive I will be there.:smokin:

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

You'd better be both!

We had such a great time, I hope eveyone who was at the MCA 30th can make it to this one, as well as those who were supposed to! (TONY!!!!)
:borg:

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

I'll be there!!

But will Frank!:claus:

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

He was there at the MCA 30th...there's a Hooters nearby...
You do the math!
:borg:

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

I hope to be there with a 2003 Mach 1 and 2007 Mustang GT...and maybe something else if I can swing it!

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

I wish I could have made the 40 th I heard it was fun.

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

Frank was at the 40th in Nashville and I saw him in all his Hooters Pimpdom. If the 45th is half the fun of the 40th, then it will be a great event. The Mach 1 Registry and it's members should set a goal to be the largest group at this event!! I think we were the largest at the 40th, but then again, the cars were relatively new. Now 5-6 years later, it would be great to show the other clubs who is Mach (not boss)!!:claus:

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

And now we need to make sure Scott puts it on his calendar...and doesn't back out this time!

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

The club that I am in will be one of the major host clubs. It will be my priviledge to help in the planning and organization of this event. If anyone has ideas or suggestions about what they think will make this a great show, your input is most welcome and will be strongly considered. Many of you were at the Nashville event, share your thoughts pro and con and we'll use those ideas in our planning.

Yes, I'll be happy to join the largest corral with my 03 Torch Red Mach!!

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

I want to attend a mach event...too bad if these things are held in early next year I wont be able to go:(

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

The 40th in Nashville and 30th MCA at Barber was awesome. I hope to make it to the 45th Anniversary. Should be a blast.

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

No parking on gravel- Grass (if no rain) or pavement please. You guys will do a great job on this. Good luck and enjoy the process!:claus:

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

Once again, this event will be in 2009 and not 2008. We are a year and a half away, but it will be here before you know it.

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

Unless I am totally off base, there are no gravel spots at all at the Barbers Motorsports Park. Every spot that we plan to use is paved.

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

Perfect!!:claus:

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

Well it would be hard to improve on the 40th in Nashville, TN. Awesome job by all. I'm sure Barber doesn't have gravel parking. :crazy: Redhorse, hope the info is acurate and sounds like it is.. Last I read from the MCA they were considering several locations and Indianapolis Motorspeedway was up for consideration. However, that didn't seem to make much sense, weather considerations in April, for Indy would be a huge concern....glad they re-thought that one. Looks like we will be up for a longer drive. Count us in....

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

For the official release check out the MCA site at www.mustang.org more details to come, I promise.

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

Not only is there no parking on gravel, you can't even see gravel...anywhere! It's all paved, the different parking levels are tiered, and the grass areas are maintained to a degree that would shame most golf courses. Check out the photos from the Birmingham show (MCA 30th) in the gallery or search out the thread, the last few pages are filled with photos. There are well kept restrooms, as well as plentiful food vendors. The track is very nice (I hope the 'parade' laps are available again. I know they were a big hit last time.), and the Barber Museum (which I did not get to see, but took a number of photos of my car in front of) got rave reviews from those who did make it there. I plan on staying at the same Holiday Inn I was at last time, in Irondale. Hopefully we can do the get togethers like last time; Hooters, Logans, and the BBQ place Tammy recommended.

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

Sounds super. I have only seen photos from the 30th Anniv. for MCA as we missed that. But it looks like it is truely a special place. Good luck with all the planning, tons of hard work with out a doubt..

Re: 45th Mustang Anniversary
 

If it's Concord, oh yea!! of couse I'll be at 45th and it will the 40anniv. of Mach1 to, and boy it's going look great,:smokin:
