This is the closest event I can find for Indianapolis. Does anyone know of something closer? I plan to attend.

This event promises to be *THE* AMG-specific event of the year (privately organized). We expect a huge turnout and will likely expand the event to the whole weekend, pending other details and confirmations.

Friday, April 29th
At this point, we will welcome folks in from out-of-town Friday evening with a dinner (probably steaks, etc.) We are in the process of selecting a suitable/reasonable hotel for folks to stay.

Saturday, April 30th
Main Event: Three parts to the day (one will be the photo shoot and the others are pending confirmation details). We have invited a special guest to join us.

Sunday, May 1st
*Possible track day* - 1/4 mile drags (still working on this, but with good participation, this will likely be a "go").

Bring your spouse or SO...make a weekender/mini vacation out of this!

If you plan on attending, post on the thread in the Events/Gatherings forum. There is ZERO cost (for registration) to participate! As the plans fall into place, we will be updating with the details.

How about "longest burnout" competition. Man do I feel like a teenager right now.

Or how about that thing where you drive up and brake to get close to the egg on top of the pylon---except we do it from 100 mph?


Aaahhhh ha ha haa......... I need professional help
