Five  South Florida Jaguar Club... Jaguars... will be joining about 40 other vintage cars ( mostly pre 74 sports car ) for 5 days of driving fun on the roads of  northern Florida and southeastern Georgia's fabulous Gold Coast. Starting after the Amelia Island Concours, this is a 1000 mile tour with overnight at the some of the nicest spots on the south eastern seabord : Amelia Island,  Jekyll Island,   Savannah's Mulberry Inn and back to Amelia Island. Plenty of  sightseeing, especially around historic Jekyll Island, St. Simons Island and Savannah, gorgeous roads, spectacular views, terrific dining and traditional Southern hospitality are on the menu. Oh and some track time too !

This page is beeing updated every evening with pictures and stories, see the daily links below. You can also go the Vintage Rallies site for details.

Oh.... and for those of you who wished they had found out about this earlier, they have 3 others events planned this year, 2 in the mountains of New England and one in Texas.

Quote of the Rally :
"we left some rubber on the Georgia asphalt, we got a litlle crazy but we never got caught"
Country singer Alan Jackson,  from one of his older hits.
...and he was in this rally in a beautiful 1956 Porsche Speedster
in all honesty, we didn't see him leaving rubber anywhere... some of us did just that though and 2 got caught !
