Hi all...
To help bring in my 40th Birthday this year i plan on driving across country in #086.I'm going from Newport News Va , to Costa Mesa Ca.And i'm going to stop by all the SPF dealerships along the way and say Hi !!
It will be a fun way to get to see the country , meet new people and make new friends.It will be neet to meet all the different SPF dealers along the way , since it is Superformances 10th Annv. I'm also going to make it even more of a personal trip than it will be , and dedicate it to Bob O. He and i will make the trip together.

The day will include a Private Tour of the Underground Vault of THE RAREST Cars !! by and with the Director of the Peterson Museum Dick Mersser.
Dick is helping me organize a party for the owners of Superformance made vehicles...MKIII's and the Brock Coupes to be specific.He told me in a phone conversation i had with him , that he had heard it was the 10th Anniversary of Superformance International's presence here in the US.
Then he told me that he had heard of my idea to help thrwo an owners party and he opened up The Peterson Automotive museum to us.He said that he thought this would be good for the Museum , good for the Owners , Good for the SPF name , and good for the Automotive fans.
I am also lining up Spa days for the wifes /girlfriends of the owners that come on the 23rd ,24th or 25th.Dick said that he will be in contact with AutoWeek , and all of the Auto Publications over at Time Warner concerning this little shin dig.
He will have just gotten back from Speedweek , and will be speaking with the peole at Speedvision about covering the event.He also mentioned about getting Peter Brock over and his New Brock Coupe , and doing a display of the Coupe and it's history , as well as the history of drivers who drove the Wilment Team car and other Team Coupes.
He will also be getting the Mayors of Los Angeles , and Costa Mesa to attend , since there will be a greeting card given to them , signed by all the Mayors , in the towns in which we pass thru.Oh,... Did i mentin that he will be conacting Jay Lenno , to see if he would be free that day to attend, Dick said that " This is the type of thing Jay really digs..."
This is going to be one fun event to go to , whether all the way from Newport News Va , or just around the block from Costa Mesa.It will be just around 3200 - 3500 miles one way. or about 55 - 60 hours.
All cars can be serviced at any of the SPF dealerships along the way.AAA membership is definetly recomended to have.
There are Waivers to be signed by all drivers and passengers going on this vacation.


Please pass this around to all your fellow SPF owners.I want to get a good showing for the Petersen Museum.That will be the hit for us SPF owners , and one that nobody that will be able to go , should miss !!!!
!!!
Thanks,
Frank
