1ST ANNUAL MB FANATICS CROSS-FLORIDA SUMMER RALLY 2014

We at MB Fanatics would like to invite you to our 1st Annual MB Fanatics Cross-Florida Summer Rally 2014. This event is an all-day driving event and will bring pleasure to the ones that love driving. After all when your Mercedes was manufactured, it was meant to be driven, not sit pretty in your garage or parking, and with this rally, you’ll experience what Florida has to offer in terms of roads and cool places to visit. It will take place on July 19th with two starting points. One will be in Mulberry, FL and the other one will be in Palm Beach, FL, as well as a meet-up point between the two groups - Lake Placid, FL. Unfortunately only up to 100 cars will be accepted into the Rally, therefore reserve your spots sooner. Registration to the Rally will be on a first come first serve basis. A registered one will mean that you have submitted your event fee ($30), reviewed the Rules and Regulations of the rally, and have signed the agreement. Make Sure you sign up before July 7th. After July 7th event fee will be $40. Routes will be provided at day of event. You’re welcome to join in at each of the three check-points. The Rally’s Final Destination will be in Fort Myers Beach, Florida around 7pm. In order to participate to the rally you must own a Mercedes-Benz vehicle. Smart cars are manufactured by Mercedes, therefore will be permitted to the Rally. Other luxury, sports, or high performance cars will be accepted only with approval of MB Fanatics. Motorcycles and golf carts are prohibited for this event. Please make sure you read the Rules and Conditions of the Rally. A waiver form and the rules and regulations page must be signed before attending the Rally. Make sure your car is safety inspected before attending the rally. Event fee will be $30. Make Sure you sign up before July 7th. After July 7th event fee will be $40. This will ensure your spot for the event. You will receive a free MB Fanatics Shirt and MB Fanatics Decal.

Phone number for contact
Year/Make/Model of vehicle attending
Photo of Vehicle attending

There's still spots left, however they're filling in quickly. It's an open brand rally, so far Mercedes Dominates, but after Friday I'll be posting a list of the vehicles coming as some other car clubs across Florida will be signing up as well.
