About Us

Dixie Maverick is simply a group of close, yet loose knit, Maverick and Comet lovers that found themselves on the internet, at local car shows and cruises, and through mutual friendships. We have remained a formal group of enthusiasts having never formed a club, elected officers, listed rules, or collected dues. We just meet whenever and with whoever as the occasion arises. Along the way, our group became more than car guys and “club members.” We became friends and as the numbers increased, so did the number of friends.

Most of the events we have and attend is usually with one, two, or three getting together to eat, work on a member's car, or go to Summit. As these small get togethers happen, someone will say, “I have an idea. Let's do...” And, so it happens. We will announce and have three to four events, meet-'n-eats, cruises, you name it per year.

Our first “big event,” held at the 2004 Fun Ford Weekend held in Commerce, GA brought guys and gals from all over Georgia, the Carolinas, Alabama, Mississippi, and even one straggler from Maryland. We held two more meets at the Fun Ford Weekends, one at Atlanta Motor Speedway, and then, we started planning something new in 2008. In April 2009, the very first Dixie Maverick Stampede was held and we liked it so much that we did again in 2010. The Dixie Maverick Stampede is now an annual event. You are invited to the next one. Details we bill announced on our main web page.

How can all these meetings and events happen without rules, leaders, and structured organization. Simple. We like and respect other and we listen to each other. We're just a bunch of neighborhood friends. It's just that our neighborhood is the good folks who love Mavericks and Comets all over Dixie.
