GLH 10K “Run Down”

We had a great time organizing the rallies last year, and we’re back at it with the Gator Motorsport Go Like Hell! 10000 Road Rally on the evening of Saturday, June 5th.

I’m getting a number of questions, so I thought would try to answer them in one go: 1. What’s up with the name?… 2. Why are we doing it?… and 3. What exactly are we doing?

What’s up with the name?

The GO LIKE HELL! 10000 Road Rally is inspired by Carroll Shelby and his distinct and charismatic approach to his road and race cars.  As characterized in the movie Ford v Ferrari, Shelby defies Ford management in signaling to Ken Miles to exceed 7,000 RPM limit and “Go Like Hell!”

Why are we doing it?

The Indianapolis automotive community did a great job of raising money last year, despite all the COVID nonsense. So, we are again taking 100% of the entry fees, and will be donating them to the Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital by way of the St Vincent Foundation. For better or worse, almost everyone knows a family with a child that has benefited from the work of the medical teams at PMCH, and the least we can do is support that life changing work.

What exactly are we doing?

This is frankly the best question… because we’re doing a few things.

First, we’ll start at the St Vincent Carmel Hospital in three Run Groups: 6:30pm, 7:00pm and 7:30pm. Please note, that’s PM (not AM)… this is an evening drive. So, register for the Run Group that best fits your schedule… If you have a Porsche, Tom Wood Porsche is our 6:30pm run group sponsor, so register for that one.

Second, we’ll enjoy a 90 minute drive through Hamilton and Boone counties… We’ve got a great route, and it should be a lot of fun. But, remember this is a “rally” not a “race.” Everyone knows what that means.

If you’re not into the “drive” you are still welcome to join us, just pick-up a ticket for everyone over 12 years old that plans to attend, and arrive around 8pm.

Finally, we’ll end at the First Wing Jet Center in Zionsville. There we’ll have a fleet of food trucks so you can enjoy some late night snacks as we feature Ford v Ferrari on an enormous outdoor screen beginning at 9:15pm.

Between 8pm and 9pm, you’re welcome to browse the cars that have arrived, as well as enjoy a interesting collection of Fords and Ferraris.

So, come for the drive, stay for the movie… All ages are welcome to join us. And, with the anticipated attendance, plan to bring a folding chair.

I look forward to seeing you on Saturday, June 5th.

Best.

One last thing... This will be our only event “prior” to ARTOMOBILIA WEEKEND (Aug 27-29), so join us in June for a drive and a movie, and then again in August.
