[DeTomaso] Modena 2009?

[MikeLDrew at aol.com]

Hi guys,

I just got off the phone with Mats Gorski, the fellow who has been behind the 
organzation of most of the International De Tomaso meetings, including the 
huge affair that was held in Italy in 1996.

He is working with Santiago De Tomaso and Claudia Lodi, and they are cooking 
up a program for a grand 50th anniversary celebration of the De Tomaso marque. 
  He is thinking of opening this event up to a worldwide audience, and 
coordinationg for tour buses etc. to enable those who arrive without cars (i.e. 
Americans) to participate as well.

The general idea is to spend a full week in Italy, touring the various car 
museums, factories, race factories, perhaps having a drag race, an open track 
event, car show, cruise, etc. etc. etc.

The target date is May 2009.   Mats wanted to get my feelings to see how much 
interest there would be from the POCA crowd.   In 1996, he pulled out all the 
stops, and there were some 180 Americans in attendance!   So this has the 
potential to be an equally huge (and enjoyable) event.

So, who's up for it?   I'm there!

Mike
