2010 FGMCC Events

Western Meet

MONTES ALL OUT!


The Dalles, Oregon
August 13-15, 2010


This year, the Western Meet brings us to The Dalles, Oregon for the Cruise The Gorge event. The 3 day event has some fun things to do throughout the weekend including cruises, car show, live entertainment and drag racing. In addition, the drive through the Columbia River Gorge area is supposed to be very nice.  We have never done drag racing at a Western Meet in the past so we thought it would be fun to do so in 2010. You can either participate in the 1/8 mile drags or simply be a spectator. Either way, the racing will be an enjoyable end to a great weekend. The response for this meet has been incredible with an attendance expected in excess of 20 club members. It will be a great time with or without your Monte. If you have any questions or suggestions regarding this meet, please email Aaron at: aaron@fgmcc.com.

We have held a block of rooms at the above rates. To book a room, call the hotel and tell them you are from the FGMCC Group (you must be a club member to book under this group rate).
Although the rooms are being held until July 29th, I suggest you book as early as possible in order to get the type of room you want.

Cost to Race: $40 for all day (10AM - 5PM)
Registration: Gates open at 7:30AM and registration closes at 9:45. Recommended to be there when the gates open to have enough time to register and pass tech inspection.

Spectator cost: $10 per car load

It is recommended to arrive Thursday evening (August 12th) and stay through Sunday if you want to take part in all the meet activities. Club members must inform Aaron (aaron@fgmcc.com) if you are planning on attending the meet. This will be important for planning the activities for the weekend.
