[Tom Miller]

2012 Indy 500
2nd Annual Celebration of Automobiles
Saturday, May 12, 2012

IMS has invited CCC to participate! Scheduled events include the Vintage 
and Historic car show featuring some of the most beautiful and rare cars 
from 1920 to 1970, the Emerging Tech showcase and evGrand Prix, and the 
Automobile Festival, a show and shine type display of automobiles of 
many marques, including CORVAIRS!!!
That's right! IMS has invited Circle City Corvairs to be a part of this 
year's Auto Fest, and we welcome you to join us for a day at the track. 
This will be a fantastic opportunity to show off your car, be it a daily 
driver or a concours champion, as a large Opening Day crowd is expected 
for the first official oval track practice of the new DW 12 Izod Indy 
Car. We'd love to give race fans the opportunity to see and appreciate a 
variety of models, styles, and years of our beloved Corvairs, so please 
plan to attend if you can.
Entry fee for the day, PER CAR, is $50. That includes gate entrance for 
everyone in the car, parking in the Infield Auto Fest corral, a 
commemorative dash plaque, a $5 IMS retail discount voucher, and the 
opportunity to take your Corvair on a lap around the famous IMS oval!
