Have you ever wanted to take your ponycar out to the track? Ever longed for the excitement that defined the Trans-Am series glory days? The Shelby American Automobile Club—Motor City Region (SAAC-MCR) offers an opportunity at The Waterford Hills Road Racing course, on Sunday, September 1, 2013. Bring your classic car and participate in some parade laps around the road course. The event is run at lunch time (around noon) during the Labor Day Classic open track event.
If you are feeling a little more daring, you can also participate in the open track event (details at: www.saac-mcr.com/te/).
The road course has an interesting history. One of the big highlights of 1961 was the visit of English Formula One driver Sir Stirling Moss on Oct 1. He'd just run the first Canadian Grand Prix at Mosport the day before and accepted an invite to visit Waterford Hills prior to a lecture he was giving at the Masonic Temple that night. In an address to the paddock following his touring laps, Stirling was quoted as saying, "If you can go fast at Waterford, then you can go fast anywhere."
Just show up at the track for the Fantasy Trans-Am parade laps and we will line up the cars in a Le Mans start formation for photos at about 12:30 pm. Then we will do some parade laps for more photos on the track.
