Come on out to Mid-Ohio on Saturday, September 17 and enjoy a day of fast cars and fun with fellow Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts at the EMCO Gears Classic! This year, the EMCO Gears Classic will be the GRAND-AM season finale and hopefully we'll see a Camaro win the Series Championship!!

Advanced tickets - $30 per person - children 12 and under are free!
This includes:
** Weekend general admission
** Paddock (garage area) Pass - get to see the cars up close!
** Open grandstand seating
** Special infield Camaro/Firebird Corral Parking
** Meet & Greet with Camaro Race Team(s)
** Lap of Mid-Ohio race course (time and availability subject to change due to track schedule)
** Concession and souvenir coupons
** Special giveaways

Purchase tickets here: http://www.midohio.com/Store/Tickets...ar-Club-Ticket. Note: This is a WEEKEND Pass, other ticket options are available, but this is the best bang for your buck.

If you purchase tickets, it would be greatly appreciated if you would post up here: 1) that you did and the number of people attending and 2) if you are bringing your Camaro/Firebird (so we know the size of the corral needed).

If you've never witnessed big-time road course racing, this is your chance! These are the cars and teams that run in the 24-Hours of Daytona and other prestigious road course races across the USA. Mid-Ohio is a beautiful facility that features a 2.4 mile, 15-turn circuit that is one of the most competitive in the US.

Check out www.midohio.com for more ticket/track info.

We had a blast last year and know this year's event will be even better!!! Watch for more info to follow soon, but if you have any questions in the meantime, post up or PM me.

8/1/11 - Official Weekend Race Schedule is posted on GRAND-AM site: http://www.grand-am.com/assets/2011M...icialSched.pdf. Please keep in mind, our meet-n-greet, track lap, giveaways, etc. will be taking place throughout the day. When it's finalized, I will post the schedule for the Camaro/Firebird Enthusiasts activities. We are trying to arrange time with as many of the Camaro teams as possible with the time they have available. So stay tuned for more!!

We've also been made aware that the Mazda Owners Corral will have a portable dyno in their area and are offering 2 pulls for $20 with a printout. This is to raise money for Make-A-Wish Foundation. They have offered an invitation to our group if anyone wants to have their car dyno'd for a good cause and see how much power you're really putting down!!

Bump!!!

Here's the FINAL SCHEDULE for race weekend!!!!!

The areas of particular interest to us are in BLUE and of special note, the parade laps are at 6:45PM (following the last race). The track decided to do this to accommodate fan activities earlier in the day.

Additionally, Jeff Bucknum plans on spending as much time as his schedule will allow at the Camaro/Firebird Corral during the race weekend hanging out with everyone and enjoying the Camaro Group!!!

Any questions, PLEASE let us know!!!! There's still time (6.5 days) to advance order your tickets.

LOOKING FORWARD TO AN AWESOME WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
