Default 2018 Newport Rally Registration is live

I hope to see a few JaguarForumers at the Rally, the registration is now live and there are limited spots left with 37 cars already enrolled.

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2018-ne...ts-40944969506

Check out the PDF presentation in there. We are limiting the event to 50 cars for logistical reasons.

Admin, if this type of post for a FREE event is now allowed, please delete.

I won't register as I might be trading the car in before then but I really liked the pdf. Thank you for setting something up and getting the community moving.

You are very welcome, I hope you stay within the Jag family ;-)

Truth to be told, the PDF was sparked by an internal idea of planning an outing 007 style soon ending in a castle in black tie attire... can't spoil the surprise yet.
We also have a few track events coming up, just working out the insurance kinks

I must admit that I find the F-Type community rather sedentary and not very eager to participate in anything. The few times we met others with F-Type at any local events, they seemed to be uninterested in driving more than 15 miles. You have the car, enjoy it!

For the Rally there are people coming from VA, DC, MI, NJ, NY, PA, VT, MA and even OH yet the locals in CT are not as engaged... go figure

What many rally coordinators are doing is opening it up to higher end cars (amg/rs/m) to have more participation. I will be picking up a RRS SVR and would love to join you guys but i can understand the appeal to keeping it f type. Enjoy the rally

We raised the limit to 75 cars to allow some of the people on the waiting list in and we have a few spots open again. It will be epic!

That's great! There is quite a bunch of people coming from PA, as we get closer we may suggest some way to get "locals" in touch if they want to drive up together

I've jumped onto the Wild Blueberry Blast jaunt in August, but if you haven't been to Newport, would recommend it just for beauty and style of the place. (Portland and Maine fantastic as well). Looks like a nice event -Great PDF you've put together. A few more of these events and one could spend the summer on the road in their f type!
