Looking to get as many GT's at this event as possible. I have spoken to M1 and they said that they will have a dedicated parking area for our GT's. I have sent out many texts to local owners and thought I would post here in case I missed anybody and to include anyone else that might want to come out.



The 4th Cars and Coffee is Sat Sept 14 at 8:30AM. Get ready for another gathering of great cars, pleasant people, delicious coffee and delectable donuts. Share this event with your petrolhead friends!

Coffee and Donuts provided by Legacy Partners Insurance Services. Stop by their display at the Coffee and Donut Area!

All show vehicles can enter at 8:30 AM on South Blvd. Please do NOT hold parking spots. If you plan to attend with a group, arrange a caravan into M1 together before hand. Saving spots is not possible once you are in the gates at M1. Parking is first come first served.

Public/Spectator parking (non-show car) is available in the South lot directly across the street from M1 Concourse. Although there is no address for the parking lot, it is directly across from 394 Howland Ave, Pontiac 48341. Signage will be directing flow into the Spectator lot.

This is a free event!

Never been, It says to gather the group to enter.
Thinking Janet could drive the 19 Silver bullet and I'll drive the 06 Black Stallion.
Need a little hand holding or maybe Google maps :)

Lets hope the weather is good and the latest message from M1 about Saturday:

We would recommend that all Ford GT's arrive at 7:45am sharp at the main private entrance located here: 1 Concourse Dr, Pontiac, MI 48341.
This will allow us ease entry for you and parking for us.
