I wanted to give you an update on where we are to date with "Project Mugello".
DUCATI GRANDSTAND:
As of today, Zach Huston at the speedway is starting to assign seats and charge everyone's card. If you want a 100% guarantee you will be seated with your friends, you need to call in the next couple of days. He's going to leave some seats open next to each club for people that call in and ask to be added but the grandstand is down to just a couple hundred seats left so it's reasonable to assume this will sell out and sooner is better than later if you want to be part of this fun and historic part of the weekend.
PUTNAM DUCATI ONLY TRACK DAY SPONSORED BY DUCATI INDY:

STT is looking for STT Instructors that ride Ducati's. Please contact Mark at
[email protected] if you would like to be involved. It's important that we make this FULLY a Ducati only day and instructors on Non-Ducs does not send the message that we as Ducati Owners Club "super enthusiasts" are trying to send so lets make sure we spread the word on this. (Thanks Mark, as always for your help!)
Plans are still forming as to what else will be going on at the track this day but Demo rides are expected as is $10 charity donation touring laps behind a control rider. I also expect there will be a nice lunch offered. Details as they solidify but this day will certainly sell out well in advance so if you or your members plan to take part I strongly suggest you get signed up.
HOTELS:
We still have a few left. Here are the choices of the three that have rooms in the immediate area of the DOC Central hotel, the Country Inn and Suites, where the parking lot activities will be centered. All "Ducati Hotels" are on the North side of town near the Ducati Indy dealer where the Thursday night open house will be held, so roughly 15 miles from the racetrack itself. These hotels are for Ducati owners and traveling companions only.
Holiday Inn - This hotel has a huge parking lot to accommodate trailers and has a top rated sports bar and a 50,000 square foot water park on the grounds - $179 per night for single King rooms. Booking code is Project Mugello. 317-872-9790 (They may have some doubles available but we don't have a negotiated rate for those so I think they are $229)
Red Roof Inn - This is a newly redone hotel, they still have singles and doubles. $105 per night. Speak to Vicki, the hotel manager to book. Booking code Project Mugello. 317-418-0981
