Roush Saleen show @ Fun Ford Weekend

[SVT Saleen]

Since the poobahs @ Saleen Inc. have decided not to sponsor the annual Saleen show this year & instead roll it into the Fun Ford Weekend @ CA Speedway the third weekend in October, I wanted to ask if anyone is planning on attending or if there is some group event being planned?

The San Diego Mustang Club show is the previous Sunday so the wife & I will have to decide if we want to attend FFW, too.

For those of you interested in the SDMC show, here is a link to the entry form:

I'm not a club member, but I highly recommend this show as it is a spectacular location @ the Embarcadero Park behind Sea Port Village & directly on San Diego bay.

The Saleen Club of America will be represented at the show and races as well. We are looking for a big turnout of Saleens for both the car show and drag racing.

The Cars & Coffee event in Irvine followed by the cruise to Fontana should be a good event. We need to get lots of Saleens lined up for this event.

Larry,

Will you be getting any details on the pre registration? The funfordevents website says you enter the day of the show. It sounds like Saleen wants to do a
show within the UPR show just for Saleens? Sounds like fun!

Saleen show,

saleen will be showcasing what we have done this year with jdm and speedlab within the drag race scene. we will be getting very aggressive into drag racing and want all of you to join the fun and come out and see what we can do. the fontana event is a test event to see how things go. I am assuming it will go very well and in 2008 we will have mini car shows at all the ffw events with friday cruises, events and saturday and sunday shows while we race. we will get to know all saleen owners which saleen has been lacking for years. 10 mini shows compared to one annual. I would think that the saleen fans would want more.

Hey guys!

I just wanted to let you know that we are sweetening the deal again!

For those of you bringing your car to the show we will be having a "Best Saleen" award. We will be looking for a couple different things, both modifications, and also preservation.

If your car is picked as the best Saleen, you will not only win a trophy, but we will display your car at the Saleen Store in Irvine for 1 month! While your car is being displayed there, we will give you a new Saleen company car to drive until your car is returned to you!

I'll see you all there!
