Seven members of GSMC enjoyed a day at Homestead- Miami Speedway. They had the opportunity to tour the garages (several were able to spend some time with Mustang Hall of Fame member jack Roush), enjoy making a parade lap on Homestead's 2.3 mile road course. Seeing Mustangs race side by side in the style of Trans-Am Racing was a thrill. |
