ItalianCarFest Weekend 2005 - Note: Track Day Event is OPEN TO ALL MARQUES

I saw a nice thread from last year about ItalianCarFest. Thanks for the enthusiasm!

ItalianCarFest has grown into a weekend affair. In addition to coming to the show Saturday as visitors, we now invite you to participate - with your cars- in the track day on Sunday!

Here is the latest news about the
Events of ItalianCarFest Weekend, September 9-12, 2005 -near Dallas

SATURDAY- The main event of the weekend, the ItalianCarFest car & two-wheeler show at Cross Timbers Winery featuring the absolute best of Italian machinery displayed on manicured lawn. Drive up Awards Ceremony at 4 p.m.

Note: The Party Patio at the winery is a great spot for clubs to meet-up to enjoy lunch and the show.

SUNDAY- OPEN TO ALL MARQUES: Boardwalk Ferrari/Maserati-Porsche Track Day. This will be an exceptional Sunday at Texas Motor Speedway with access to a private clubhouse for drivers and their guests, a special covered area adjacent to the track and other extras provided by Texas Driving Experience, a company specializing in organizing premiere track events. Cars will drive on the inner track, called the Le Mans Road Course. Separate enrollment required:
For Full Track Day Information Packet plus Enrollment Form, contact dawn@texasdrivingexperience.com or call (817) 430-4343.


The 2005 show will be free to the public; we are making plans for 12,000+ visitors. We expect entrants from 15 states displaying 135 cars plus motorcycles.

Go to www.italiancarfest.com or e-mail italiancarfest@yahoo.com.

Note: None of these events are for profit. In fact our club, the organizer, has applied for 501(c)(3) status. So this is not a commercial post. I do hope you consider it a friendly invitation.

Thanks again,

This sounds pretty neat. You may want to post in the RX8Club.com forum as well.

By "inner track", does that mean they won't use any of the oval?

ItalianCarFest

The inner is being used, not the oval.

I'll be there with my FD.

Can we get a list of cars that will be participating in the non-Italian car track events on Sunday? As I understand it, track time will be divided among Italian cars for each session, then the rest of us.

Need to know what I'm up against!
