Mercury Marine Invitation
Trying to get a group of ZRs to participate in a private tour of the Mercury Marine manufacturing facility and MMRacing Museum in Fond du Lac, WI.
Would really like to have 10+ cars participate. Here's the email from Mercury Marine looking to schedule a day for ZR-1 Registry members for a tour "We're open anytime in August. The manufacturing floor will still be on summer hours which means production goes until 4 pm Mon-Thurs and 10:30 a.m. Friday. If we planned this correctly - we could get the plant involved and have a mini car show with a BBQ lunch deal tied in with the tour. The museum visit could be prior or after the plant tour. I still haven't made the trek to the museum myself. I'll get to that soon and get you the VIN. Rick Rick Mackie Mercury Racing Senior Marketing Manager 920.924.2032 rmackie@mercmarine.com" This will be a weekday event. I think we can get 5-6 cars just from the FBI group. Anybody else in Indiana, WI, MN or MI interested? All are welcome btw.

Re: Mercury Marine Invitation
Which week would it be in August? It's possible that I could come from Minneapolis.

Right now, its up to us to decide which week would work. The week where we can get the most ZRs together for a run up to Fond du Lac. Anyone else?

Re: Mercury Marine Invitation
I may bite but would be a rider possibly. I no longer have a driver Z.

Re: Mercury Marine Invitation
The 95 is a 9500 mile paper weight. I never intend on hitting 10,000 miles with that car. The conv will be my next driver.
