10th Annual Saleen Nationals presented by Gullo Ford - Aug 1-4, 2013 Houston, TX
Hey fellow Saleen owners and enthusiasts! We'd like to invite everyone to come to the Lone Star state in August to a little gathering we're having.
We are proud to announce that the Feature Car of the Year is Steve's masterpiece....the fabulous Saleen S7! This full weekend of action will include indoor karting, a piney woods cruise, an indoor/outdoor car show, banquet, and private collection tour! Registration info to be announced shortly. We've got some terrific things planned for your visit including a tour of perhaps the largest private Saleen collection in the world. You will see some of the rarest Saleens in existence there. And a real high point is the confirmation that Phil Frank, the designer of the S7, will also be attending! We are working hard to make this a real S7 Reunion as well, and currently have five S7s slated to be at our big show! So come see us! Thanks SOEC!!!

The Saleen National's Registration is Open !!
The day has finally come! After a long and sometimes challenging process for our Nats Planning Team, we're now open for business! To register, go to http://www.saleenclubofamerica.com and click on the link to the Nationals Registration in the center of the page to get signed up for the must-do Saleen event for 2013! Oh and did I forget to mention...Steve Saleen, the man himself, will be in attendance! So do what you have to do to get that date set aside! The registration link will take you through the entire process and lets you pay via PayPal, or allows you to print out a Registration Form that you can mail in to our Treasurer. For those that are interested in an indoor car show spot ($15 more), we are limited to 50 vehicles. As the host region, and being good hosts, we are offering the inside spots up to folks outside the region first (outside Texas and surrounding 4 states). So if you want an indoor spot, select it during registration. If they fill up, the difference between the cost of inside and out will be refunded to you. Sorry we can't accommodate everyone inside, but the Lone Star Convention Center will be open to everyone and will provide shelter from the heat, with air conditioning, cool beverages, and concessions inside. And keep up with the planning discussion here and on our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/SaleenClubOfAmerica See you in August!

How does spectating work at an event like this? I don't plan on bringing the S331 down or putting it in the car show but can outsiders come to the show and what not?

You can come to the show and just enjoy the cars, meet Steve, buy a t-shirt, participate in the auction...all without entering. You can participate in the karting event or come to the banquet, but each requires you to sign up and pay for those.

FYI. June 1st is the cut off for the Host Hotel for the biggest Saleen event ever in Texas. After that Normal rates apply. At the moment we have 77 confirmed attendees, plus 5-7 S7 owners, the Saleen Family (Steve and Molly), Phil Frank, Brad Bowling (author of the Saleen Book). It's going to be amazing !!

Your Saleen Nats planning team has been working hard to make the 10th Annual Nationals the best yet!
It's the first time that we'll have Steve at one of our Nats, and we believe Molly is also planning to attend. Important Dates to Remember: July 1 - last day to sign up for the banquet and shuttle bus. TWO WEEKS LEFT SO ACT QUICKLY TO HAVE DINNER WITH STEVE SALEEN! July 11 - last day to get discount at the host hotel, the Holiday Inn (note that our initial block of rooms may be gone before that time so register early) July 14 - last day to get discount at the support hotel, the Hampton Inn Six weeks and counting!

Have a good time boys as we can't make it with work and new baby.
Truthfully, I am a little jealous as we had big plans like this for the Nationals in Colorado a few years ago with 2 S7s, Saleen Le Mans cars, etc. all lined up but the internal sabotage by some members of that club at the time killed most of it to a watered down event. Such a shame! I am still a member there and here and past is the past. I didn't even want to attend and it was 5 miles from my house, but I made a promise to attend so I brought one car, the BASF Mystic S351R Speedster. Anyway glad you were able to put it together right. Conroe is where they have the Texas Concourse DeEligance shows. I was just there for a Board of Directors Meeting with another company a few months ago. |

Sorry you can't make it, and congrats on the new baby! It's unfortunate that that happened around the Colo Nats. I was pretty new to the club at that time and didn't even have my true Saleen then. If you ever make it down to Conroe/Houston again, let me know!

Something got screwed up at the Hampton Inn, now back on track.
Your block code is SALEEN and the rate is $99.99 + tax for a King or Dbl Queens. Sorry for the mess!

Everybody please note.....online registration will close the night of july 15 so there's only two days left to secure a seat at the banquet with a shuttle ride. All other aspects of the event are arrive-and-play....the karting, cruise, show, and gullo private museum tour. But you sure don't want to miss out on the banquet with guest speakers at the ultimate saleen man-cave!
