Browns Mazda Grand Opening & Car Show

I've been working on getting details together, but wanted to start getting the word out as soon as possible on this upcoming event.

Where: Browns Chantilly Mazda in the AutoPark off Rt 50. Chantilly, VA
When: October 30th (yes, I know it's a Thursday - but for good reason)
What time: All day - but the show will be from 2pm to 7pm.
How much: Grand Opening event - Free, entry to car show: $15.

Attractions:

1. Jim Sullivan, President of Mazda (NA) is attending. May or may not be giving a speech, TBD.

2. Robert Davis of Mazdaspeed fame will be there to hang out, check out the car show, etc.

3. #70 Car from Rolex 24 Hour at Daytona winning SpeedSource team with trailer, etc.

4. Mazda Car show - rotary focuses (if not all Rotary, thats up to you guys)

5. BBQ!

6. Facility tours. This is the largest new Mazda "REV" store in our region. Great showroom, cafe and parts department.

It will be a classy yet fun event and I encourage EVERYBODY to come out.

I have been put in charge of the car show by the owner of the Browns Mazda stores (Fairfax, Alexandria and now Chantilly).

This is a great chance to show your support for the brand and to meet up with other enthusiasts in our area.


Now, about the show.

We are limiting the spots to 20 cars. It is open to all Mazda's, but the owner being a 1995 Mazda RX7 fan and all around rotary fan himself would like to see all rotary if possible. Robert Davey and Jim Sullivan would enjoy it as well!

There will be a 1st place, 2nd place and People's choice award given out. The prizes will be worth it - and your chances to win are pretty high considering we limit the field to 20 cars.

The show entrance fee will be $15 to hold your spot in the show. It can be paid ahead of time via paypal. You must register and pay BEFORE the show to gaurantee your spot.

Judges will be the sales team and service teams of Browns Chantilly Mazda.

Current vehicles already registered for the show:


I will putting together an official flyer and prize packages shortly.


Current Show standings:

1. 1985 RX7 GSL-SE

That leaves 19 more spots guys/girls! Lets get this thing rolling.

I forgot to add to this a few other details.

John Walko Racing will be giving away a package for their track day, valued at $575 as part of the event. They will also be there with one of their Star Mazda cars (you know, the nice little open wheeled Renesis powered cars). One of my good friends and salesman at the dealership has done many of John Walko's track events and classes and can speak to how much fun you'll have if you win that!

If you bring your '91 by my place, we can probably try and fix before the show!

Or I can fix it and just give you what you paid for it and keep it

Your FD has badges of honor, totally acceptable

I am trying to get Ron to come out with his Rally FC (the red & black one from back in the days of oakland acres).

THE WEBSITE IS UP.

Please sign up if you plan to enter the car show!

If you plan to simply attend, please feel free to post here so I can get an "estimate" of how many cars will be there.

Also, feel free to share that website link with everyone.

Great! I haven't seen your car in YEARS...

I'll have to check on the power - I'm assuming you need an outlet?

Also - those who've signed up here, please visit the website to submit payment for the show to secure your spot... Thanks!

I'll update the site this evening to reflect payments. Since I'm relying on Paypal for payment, I didnt make it automatically update the site.

Keep 'em coming guys. So far I'm impressed that it seems we'll have more 7s than 8s, which is cool.

I'm trying to work on finding a cosmo or rx3 or repu to come out as well.

Website is updated - we need 4 more official entries to make 10 for a good showing.

If we dont get enough rotaries, it'll be opened to additional Mazdas..
