    Yes its hard to believe but this will be the 6th annual gathering of car enthusiasts who like to drive. Passionately known as the Mason Dixon rally. All Marques are welcome. The spirit of the event is to bring the two groups ( northern and southern) of the Mid Atlantic forum of FChat together in one rally on one day with really fine roads. And it’s not for any charity and it costs nothing to participate. This is on purpose as we all have plenty of worthwhile charities to contribute to and we all do a fine job of participating in those. So this one is just for you!!! For the uninitiated and the new to the forum here is what happens. A group of car crazy drivers who call me their friend help me put together some killer directions to navigate. We meet at one location. We leave in groups or individually in 5 min increments. We meet half way to tell lies about our experiences. Then we continue on to the destination where I provide a meal fit for a king/queen ( that’s my first lie). It’s that simple. You won’t know the route or the destination until you arrive. You will want a navigator unless you leave in a group. You won’t even know where the event begins unless you PM me and I tell you. ( all this is for a very good reason) We stick to the speed limit and obey all traffic laws :) So here we go September 17th. It Begins at 10AM. The roads will crisscross the DE,MD and PA lines roughly near the I-95 MD/DE line. Wanna join us? Jon in Delaware

    This one sounds like great fun! If it's anything like the spring drive, it will be a blast. The Viper and I are IN for this one! PM sent, Jon.

    Count me in. Although I'm a bit distant from the area that the route usually covers, if you want some company/help during the planning, just let me know and we can figure something out.

    Put me down as tentative for now. I would hate to miss, but work is going to be a sh*t storm about then so I might have to bail.

    thanks for all of your continued enthusiasm!! Ill be ansewring all your PMs when I get the route decided but you are all in. My main reason for the PM request is to be able to give you the secret starting location. I dont plan on screening the participants. Just for clarity. Jon in Delaware

    "Pencil" you in. THIS IS THE FAMED MASON DIXON RALLY. This is where we separate the men from the boys...and then the boys from the girls, and then Alex from the girls...usually with the stun gun :D

    If you are only going to do one event this year..


    Do the Milli Miglia :)

    .......but if you can't, this is the Rally you must attend. Courtesy of Jon and his crack team of stewards, including the venerable Bob and Don, you can be guaranteed a great drive. If you follow Don closely enough, you can even collect some vintage Lotus parts :D


    This year, I hear they are even going to have........................wait for it..................


    A 1986 FERRARI MONDIAL!!!!!!!!

    That's right folks, no pictures allowed, but we will allow spectators behind the velvet rope before And after the rally.



    So sorry buddy, around these parts we only deal in permanent marker. You are either in, or you are out. You got to have both feet on one side of the door.


    Unless it rains...


    Than I usually quietly slip out the back while I have Joe Mac distract everyone with his spot on rendition of "Hello Dolly"
