Private Tour of the Roush Collection

SVTOA Southeast Michigan has arranged for a private tour of the Roush Collection. If you've ever wondered where old race cars go, this is it! The date will be this Saturday October 29th. We will meet at 11:00 am for the tour, followed by lunch. (I promise it won't be just hot dogs and chips!) The cost will be $5.00 per person for both the tour and lunch. (What a Deal!)

The Roush Collection is located at 11851 Market St., Livonia, MI 48150.

All we need is an RSVP by Wednesday, October 26th. Please E-mail us at info@svtoa-semi.com and let us know how many people will be coming.

For those interesed: There will be a leadership team meeting prior to our tour. If you're interested in expressing your opinion, or taking a greater role in planing future events, feel free to join us at 10:00 am.

Here's a little more info on the Roush Collection:

The Roush Collection houses a variety of vehicles that illustrate the many themes related to Roush Racing and Roush Industries. The categories represented in the collection include racecars, research and development vehicles, classic automobiles and vintage automobiles prepared for participation in The Great Race.

A selection of racecars have been preserved from Roush Racing's past race programs. These vehicles demonstrate the heritage of Roush in competitive automotive sport series such as NHRA, SCCA, IMSA and NASCAR from the mid 1960's to the present day. Visitors will be able to view restored and unrestored racecars in addition to other items from previous Roush Racing team efforts.

The research and development category in the collection contains a wide variety of prototype, development and specialty built automobiles. The applications represented by these vehicles include interior/exterior, design and development and marketing among others.

The Roush Collection features a number of classic automobiles that date as far back as 1913. These vehicles are owned by a variety of individuals and have been collected for reasons personal to the owners. Within this category, a handful of vehicles have been prepared for participation in the vintage automobile rally event, The Great Race.

The Roush Collection also houses a number of displays that demonstrate the skills and capabilities of Roush Industries.

We look forward to seeing you on the 29th!

How strict are you on RSVP date? I posted it this morning for people...but today is "the" day it seems. Wish I was back that way, I'd do it in a heartbeat

We are flexible on the RSVP date, just want to get a feel for how many people are going to attend so we order enough for lunch. Thanks for your help on this!
