Connecticut MG Club Dust-off Rally

Location Southbury Green Shopping Center, Southbury, CT, USA
Date August 04, 2018

The Connecticut MG Club will be holding the rescheduled Dust-off Rally on August 4th. The start location is in Southbury CT. The event will be a 73 mile GTA style rally ending at a family style restaurant. The attached flyer has details for those interested. This event is open to all MG enthusiasts so if you are going to be in the neighborhood, please plan on participating.

If you have any questions, feel free to send me a PM or ask them here. We normally have a dozen or more cars participating. I’m hopeful that with this notice there will be a few more. The route goes thru lots of scenic driving in the western Connecticut hills and has a couple challenges for the driver. A good time. There is no fee. If you’d like to join us let me know so that we can provide the restaurant a head count and make sure we have enough participants key fobs.

Driving distance will be approximately 73 miles. There will be an opportunity to take a break approximately mid way along the route.
