55th Annual Rally Glenwood Springs
06/08/2007 - 06/10/2007
The 55th Annual Rally Glenwood Springs will be held on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, June 8, 9, & 10, 2007. This is the oldest continuously held rally in the United States. The MG Car Club, Rocky Mountain Centre, has sponsored the event for all 55 years, which began when a hardy group of sports car enthusiasts discovered the joys of top-down motoring when MG's still had lift-off tops and running boards!
The majestic, cool Rocky Mountains of central Colorado, some of the most breathtaking scenery in America, form the backdrop for the Rallye Glenwood Springs. The event is a marvelous opportunity for car enthusiasts of every marque--British, American, German, Italian, Japanese, French, Swedish--to join together for a weekend of unique events. Through fifty-four previous years, vintage and classic cars from as far away as California and Chicago have shared the road with their newer counterparts for a weekend of fun and octane-related festivities. 250 enthusiasts with over 130 cars are expected to participate.
The three-day event begins on Friday with the 55th Annual Rally Glenwood Springs--a time, speed, distance event from Denver to Glenwood Springs to challenge the novice, as well as the experienced rallyist. Saturday's main event is a Tour through the scenic areas surrounding Glenwood Springs, followed by a banquet. The weekend culminates with the Car Show, Funkhana, and awards presentation on Sunday.
