MID-AMERICA 33

Greetings Ford Enthusiasts!!!

We’ve waited a year. Now it’s time. Mustang, Ford, & Shelby enthusiasts from across the country will
be converging on Tulsa for the 33rd Annual Mid-America Ford Performance & Shelby Meet. Mid-
America is not just about the cars, it’s the people! A great family event featuring a convention of
conventions--Mustang, Shelby, Boss, Cobra, SVT, Bullitt, Steeda, Saleen, Roush & more. They will all
be at Mid-America 33.

As always, Mid-America will continue to offer a first “hands on” look at new and exciting Ford Motor
Company Performance vehicles--the best of Mustang! The 2008 Shelby GT500KR and more. For
nostalgia Mustang fans, we will have the 1969 Mustang Mach 1--Mickey Thompson’s famous Bonneville
salt flats racer, courtesy of Hajek Motorsports.

The dates for Mid-America 33 are June 13-17, 2007. Our headquarter hotel will be the Tulsa Marriott
Southern Hills. Alternate accommodations will be offered through the Tulsa Convention Housing
Bureau. The hotels are near major shopping areas, museums, restaurants, parks, the Oklahoma
Aquarium, and other entertainments.

Wednesday, we are offering a limited participation driver’s school at Hallett Motor Racing Circuit. Early
registration opens at 5 p.m. to give you the opportunity to pick up your registration materials and
credentials ahead of the rush; especially to enter your car in the popular ballot car show.

Thursday, the Ford Mustang Open Track begins at Hallett Motor Racing Circuit. You can have fun on
the track or as a spectator. Another chance to enjoy our cars will be a car cruise leaving from the Marriott
in the evening, touring through a scenic part of Tulsa, ending with a cruise-in where you can grab a
burger at the Sonic or listen to the oldies at Weber’s with a frosty mug of their own famous root beer.
Be sure to visit the Brookside district eateries, and for truly exceptional ice cream, try The Creamery at
Tulsa Sips Coffee Company.

Friday, the Ford Mustang Open Track continues. We will be having two exhibitions--Vintage and
Latemodel. Recent transponder technology allows us to offer a timed lap program. We will offer this
late in the day on Friday and again on Saturday. Evening activities at the Marriott include an informal
reception, seminars, guest speakers, and an art and memorabilia display and sale.

Saturday is Goodyear Eagle Day at Tulsa Raceway Park, featuring E/T bracket-style racing, powderpuff
program, and an exclusive shootout for FE powered cars. Day three of Open Track at Hallett. In the
evening, you will want to attend our outstanding banquet and program, which includes a sit-down style
dinner, entertainment and door prizes. Our keynote speaker will be Robert S. Parker, Car Marketing
Manager, Ford Division, Ford Motor Company.

Sunday concludes the fun-filled weekend with the All Ford Super Show, sponsored by Classic Design
Concepts. Show classes provide excellent representation and generous awards. In addition, a SAAC-
level concours will be available for Shelby Mustangs and Boss Mustangs. We also welcome “display
only” cars.

A stunning line-up of programs, racing, and entertainment await you. From SVT Cobras to Shelby
Cobras, Fairlanes, Galaxies, Cougars, Panteras--all types of Ford Performance will be represented.
