Marcos Maniacs

Hello from South Western Virginia,

What a great idea and I really want to see you guys
pull this tour off. If you find that your trip brings
you through the State of Virginia, please plan in a
tour through the Blue Ridge Parkway in South Western
VA.  Their are many touring attractions plus historic
Virginia International Raceway which we may be able to
schedule some track/show time.  Additionally if you
happen to be here on the 3rd & 4 of July the Roanoke
Valley Virginia Transportation Museum sponsors the
Star City Motor Madness, one of the largest gatherings
of cars on the East Coast.  This is bigger than events
you will see on Rt66.  Last year over 15000 cars were
on display and cruising the boulevard.  This year Phil
Hill will be one of the VIP guests of the event.  To
date my 1600GT, #5179 is the only example of a Marcos
that has been in this event.  You can find details at
www.starcitymotormadness.com

I would be happy to help you coordinate your itinerary
if you find your tour in this part of the USA.
