www.EuroSportDC.com

Event Summary: EuroSportDC, June 9th, is a spirited car tour of Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Porsches, Maseratis, Aston Martins, and Lotus through the back roads of Maryland. Afterward, we will enjoy a display of 10 plus Jet Fighters on the Martin State Airport's tarmac and be allowed to sit in the aircraft's seats. Where else can you do all this? Plus, meet Valentino Balboni, the famed Lamborghini Test Driver.

Event Details: The fourth annual EuroSport DC tour will be a 2.5-hour drive through the countryside of Maryland. We will depart at the Seneca Creek State Park in Gaithersburg, MD and drive to Martin State Airport in Middle River, MD for a catered BBQ lunch and a People’s Choice Award Concours. For 2013, we have added an aviation element to the destination making our event more than just a car drive. We will enjoy a display of more than 10 jet fighters on the flight line of the Martin State Airport. Imagine our group of Euro sports cars surrounding a display of jet fighters along the airport's secured flight line. In addition, we will be allowed to sit in the fighter jets with instructors providing information. Valentino Balboni will do a technical review on the Lamborghini Aventador.

Registration will be open from 8:30 am to 9:30 am. Tour participants will be served coffee and a breakfast sandwich to fuel up before the drive. In addition, Valentino Balboni will be running in the tour with us in a Lamborghini. Valentino was featured on Top Gear, 60 Minutes and every car magazine on the planet.

I miss the smaller, free drives that were dominated by Porsche Club members that we use to do, Kevin.

 

We have grown. What we are doing now has been our vision from day one. We are more than a drive.

Years ago we ran the All Italian Car Tour and Concours event that was similar in nature. Tour, Lunch, Breakfast, and an interesting destination with cool stuff to see. We did that event for roughly 7 years with great success. During that time we wanted to include other cars from other countries. So, we developed EuroSport. We run them in Washington DC, Austin, Texas, and we are looking at doing one in San Diego, as I have some good friends there to help run them.

I think I'm talking about the old "crash-test dummies" runs we use to do unless I have the wrong Kevin. We had some good drivers in those runs and the routes were perfect. The drivers were true car lovers.
