I've got some very exciting news about the Mille event in November. More info coming soon!!

Abby Normal

This sounds like a really cool event! I'm passing the word around.

Hi Abby, thank you so much for your offer to help pass the word along. It is going to be so much fun! I cannot wait!

$30? You should at least throw in a T-shirt.

AutoAtlanta

You think? I think I have been to a lot of events that cost a lot more than 30 dollars and never got a shirt. The Mitty two weeks ago was 50 bucks for the weekend, and you don't get a shirt unless you pay for it.

Have you ever seen "Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels" You sound kinda like Nick the Greek.

4re308

And yes for $30 you will get a commemorative t shirt, stickers and dash plaque, in addition to participating in the parade.

This sounds like it is going to be a good event. How many people have signed up? What arrangements are in place if it rains? I'm pretty interested.

The rain date is Sunday November 6th, same place. Hopefully it won't rain! We don't have a lot signed up just yet, but slowly and surely. Its still a good 127 days away. We do have some stellar sponsors signing on!!

I'm looking for sponsors small and large for The Mille. So far I have RUF US, DuPont Registry, Auto Atlanta, LN Engineering, PorschePurist.com, P21S and 9Magazine signed on so far. Lots more have registered for the event!

If anyone can help me get in touch with someone at Rennlist please let me know. I've been sending emails for months unanswered.

We plan to bring the Supercharged Porsche 928 to the Mille after we complete our Bonneville Land Speed record runs. This is the Pike's Peak Hill Climb car, now converted into LSR. Win, loose, or draw - we'll be there!

Happy to be a sponsor of this event. Hope to see you there!
