Central Maryland MINIS have 23 people going, should be a good time plus we get to do two laps of the original six mile circuit on Friday.
Have a freind that complete in the vintage races and has been trying to get me to come up to this event. Maybe
Saw a post on FB that linked me here. I now have a group of 8-10 cars from CT, NY, and NJ coming up :biggrin5: I didn't however see a link for the Watkins Glen International Tour de Marque so here you go. http://grandprixfestival.com/marque.html Wouldn't want anyone to miss out!
Hello everyone. Thank you for the interest in the 2013 US Vintage Grand Prix here at Watkins Glen International. If anyone has any questions, feel free to contact me via the information in my sig.
I'm still very tempted, on the fence at this point. Just noticed Watkins Glen is in the Finger Lakes wine region and sits at the southern tip of Seneca Lake and the Seneca Lake Wine Trail. Hmmm, yet more tempting...
C3M (Central Maryland MINI Motorists) has a group of 32 signed up so far. Watkins Glen Grand Prix Festival 2013-Mini Cooper featured Marque - Central Maryland MINI Motorists (Crofton, MD) - Meetup Get signed up and make your room reservations early. This is a big weekend at Watkins Glen!
I was just there for a 2 day event with the Ferrari Club. Took my MINI and had a blast. Great track! here is a link to a video of me keeping up with a Ferrari Challenge and Corvette... :devil: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avVGJqMF1R4]Good Boy at WGI, May 2, 2013 - YouTube[/ame] -daniel
Are you all staying around the same area? I am really thinking about going and would love to be close to the MINIacs from C3M.
You can try getting a room in WG but that might be hard at this late date. I'm staying in Horsehead(about 15-20 min. away) as are others, but I know that many will stay in Corning/Elmira.
Idlewild Inn has rooms, but I think I got the last one with a private bath. It's 4 miles from the track and is a huge Victorian mansion. The rooms look really nice, even if you have to share a bathroom. It was cheaper that the Budget Inn even. I'm going up on Thursday...any one want to caravan from around the Annapolis area?
We were supposed to go. Bought tickets and everything. Now thanks the sequestration we can't go. Is anyone interested in purchasing 3 tickets?
Just found out that everyone will pick up their tickets during registration on Fri. morning. None will be mailed.
I am considering attending this event... Please help with a question: What is the difference between this $35 offer (above) and the $140 Tour de Marque on the registration form from the website (I believe two tickets instead of a single, but what else?) Thank you packimocity
I wouold contact: Rob Roessel 607-535-2486 x351 [email protected] For an answer to your question. Please mention you saw it here on M/A.
