Z06Vette.com - Corvette Z06 Forum - Fri Jul 19 Afternoon tour of Avanti Motorcar Factory

Manatee · 07-02-2002, 02:38 PM

I have set up a tour of the Avanti Motorcar Factory facility, located in West Georgia (Villa Rica), for 4pm Fri Jul 19. We will meet in the early afternoon somewhere on the West Side of Atlanta to drive I-20 West towards Alabama. Memebers from Alabama who'd like to attend, can meet us in Villa Rica. After the tour is comleted, we will most likely find a place to eat before driving back to Atlanta.

Saturday tours were not available.

Lets compare a 'volume' assembly plant like BG to a small hands on facility like Avanti !

If you are interested, please let me know.

Excellent!

BTW looks like the weather is going to hold so I plan to run up to Commerce and get a few passes in tonight to see how the Vararam does at speed

Some of my fellow Atlanta owners interested in playing??

I don't know where you're located but it looks like it could rain anytime here at 285 and 400.

What time do you guys head up there? I'm guessing, but I think on a Friday night it would take me the better part of 1 to 2 hours to get up there.

gmblack3 · 07-12-2002, 12:59 PM

Dinner and a movie for me tonite.

Will be nice to meet you too Les at the Avanti Tour!

NOW U Z ME · 07-12-2002, 01:07 PM

Looks like you should be OK for a few runs tonight... sorry I can't hook up.

Tonight's Weather in Atlanta

See you over at Panoz next week.

Vince, will you be posting directions?

We'll set up a general meeting place, hopefully on the west side of Atlanta. Avanti is located in Villa Rica. If y'all don't want to meet on the west side, I'm open for Northside suggestions.

I have directions to Avanti which I'd be glad to send anyone

Good luck tonight Les !!!!!
