DRIVE YOUR PONY ON THE TRACK AT KANSAS SPEEDWAY FOR FREE!
Basically you'll get to:
1) Drive your pony on the track at Kansas Speedway on July 1st.
2) See the new 2005 Mustang before it's out.
3) Drivers will get a poster & pin for participating.
4) See Carl Edwards drive the 2005 Mustang on the track!
All participants will get a poster and keychain too!
Attention Kansas City area Mustangers: We need your help to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Mustang and to introduce the 2005 Mustang to Kansas City!
At 3:00 PM on Thursday, July 1, Craftsman truck series driver Carl Edwards will run parade laps around the Kansas Speedway in a 2005 Mustang GT. To celebrate the Mustang's 40th Anniversary, we want Mustangs of all vintages to follow Carl around the track.
Any and all Mustangs are welcome. This is your chance to see the new Mustang up close and personal before it goes on sale this fall. It's also your chance to meet Carl, and drive on the banked oval at the Kansas Speedway.
There's an invite for media to come out, so you just might see your car on the evening news. In addition, every one will receive a Mustang poster and pin in appreciation for their time.
We ask that drivers arrive at the Speedway by 2:45 pm. We will enter the track at 3:00 pm. We will stage the Mustangs at the Busch driver lot--see the attached map, or the directions below. Everyone must sign a waiver before accessing the track.
To speed up the paperwork, please RSVP to [email protected] with your name, vehicle age and model.
On last request: Please forward this to anyone you know who might be interested in joining our celebration. All Mustang owners are invited!
If you have questions, please contact Monte at the e-mail below, or Dave Marchand at the Mustang Club Center: 800-576-PONY, or [email protected].
Thanks for your help.
