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.
