We have organized a 60th anniversary event to encompass all 'Ford GT" cars. In conjunction with the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix event at Pitt Race July 26-28, 2024.
Original FAV/JWA cars, Kar Kraft cars, continuation cars such as Safir, Superformance, Holman Moody, etc. cars as well as Ford Powered replicas such as ERA, Toronado, SGT, etc. are welcome as well. The 05-06 Ford GTs will be there as well as the new 2017-up GTs. If it is a Ford GT with two seats and the engine behind the driver, it will be there. We already have commitments for some historic cars to attend so stay tuned.
We have six acres of paved area for parking and display. Your "Master" entry will get you and your GT in with secured parking for your car as well as trucks and trailers.
Your entry will get you a lanyard with your I.D., car chassis number, possibly a picture of the car, and indicate all of the events you are signed up for. A "swag bag" with numerous GT related items and other things will be included as part of your entry.
Additional crew, family, friends, etc. will be issued lanyards at a modest cost.
Friday evening a gathering will be held in a hotel about 20-25 minutes from the track. This will include a cash bar, a dinner with three choices of menu and an after-dinner program of speakers, videos, meet and greets and more. This program will be no extra cost over your entry fee. All are invited so if you don't want to buy the dinner, you are still welcome to attend. No "you didn't pay" stuff here.
There will be several vendors with GT related items including cars on site.
We will have four "on track" events over the three days. These include:
Paced, but spirted laps for all cars that purchase the option. Passengers will be allowed, and no helmets are required.
"Open track" time. This will require tech inspection and helmets, no passengers. This is also an extra cost option.
A "GT only" race on Sunday. This will require a prepared car with full race safety equipment, i.e., fuel cells, roll bars, etc. the driver must hold competition license from a recognized organization such as SVRA, SCCA, HSR, etc. This is an optional item with extra cost.
Cars entered for the GT race may also compete in the PVGP "Ground Pounder" class for additional track time including practice and race event. This also extra cost but selecting this will include the GT race at no extra cost. See Race Groups – PVGP Historics | PVGP.
Additional, GT owners will have the opportunity to provide rides during the lunch break. These are done to raise money for the PVGP charities. People pay for a one lap ride around Pitt Race and there is a long line of people looking for a once in a lifetime experience in a GT. Fun for both driver and his guest passenger and a benefit to the charities.
Lots more information to come. We will have costs, a list of hotels with special pricing and more shortly. Our websites will go live in a couple of weeks and news and details will be on them.

Looking forward to seeing everyone and everyone having a great time! We can't wait.
