Over 40 attendees & growing.

Gentlemen,

This will be one of the biggest gatherings of the GT faithful in the 12 years we have done this. To reiterate, everyone will pay in CASH at the end of the evening so show up with a pocket full of $20's. Individual cocktails and dinner will be totaled along with a 20% tip and divided by the # of attendees. Everyone will pay the same amount. No bottles of wine or champagne can be put on the tab so if you want those you'll have to go to the bar and pay for those separately. GT's will be self parked and the valet staff will watch over them. Members bringing a GT must give the valet $10 or $20 for taking up their best spaces and for their keeping an eye on the GT's. If anybody has any questions or needs help please call my cell at (602) 430-4877.

Event time is 7:00 PM.

Place is.....Don & Charlie's, 7501 E Camelback Rd, Scottsdale, AZ 85251 (480) 990-0900

If you need to either cancel or add to the # in your party please let me know. If you haven't signed up yet and want to come that's no problem, just post up or contact me.

See you there. :cheers :cheers :cheers :cheers

A night with legends.

Gentlemen,

At our gathering tonight will be three racing legends including two Le Mans Champions and a winner at Daytona. In 1964 Dan Gurney and Bob Bondurant drove Caroll Shelby's Cobra Daytona Coupe to the GT class win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. I ran into Bob Bondurant (below sitting in a new GT for the first time) tonight at another event and he and his wife are going to join us. New forum member Harley Cluxton (Mirage) is both a race driver of note and the owner/manager of the Mirage team that won Le Mans outright in 1975. Since WW2 only two independent teams have managed that feat. Harley will be with us. And motorcycle racer and legend Buddy Stubbs who won the Daytona 100 in 1963 will be there. Over 45 members will make this the largest Barrett Jackson gathering in over a decade. See you tonight.

Chip

I was at a class at Bob's school. I got the class at the Shelby American Collection fundraiser silent auction and Bob was there at the auction and at the class, and remembered me. He took me for about a 15 minute session of hot laps in his ZR1. Wow, that guy can drive a car!!!

Flying to Scottsdale now. Cant make it to the dinner tonight but will be with the Ford team for the auction Saturday night. Looking forward to seeing you guys there. BTW, I spoke to Justin Verlander last month and he told me that he plans to keep his new GT in Virginia.
