If you have not made your reservations for the Lunch with a Legend: Connie Kalitta, it is not too late!

June 18, 2010

As you might know, Connie Kalitta is a legend in both the racing and business worlds--owning the successful professional drag racing team Kalitta Motorsports and dominant Kalitta Air, his $800 million international air cargo business.  Come check out this event celebrating these two worlds hosted by Kalitta Motorsports at its facilities in Ypsilanti Township on Wednesday, June 23 from 11:00 am - 1:00 pm.

The event will kick off with the NHRA press conference promoting the upcoming event in Norwalk, OH featuring Kalitta Motorsports' drivers and Connie Kalitta answering questions from ESPN's Dave Rieff.  Upon completion of the conference, the facilities will be open for tours along with interactive displays that even the most novice race fan will enjoy and learn from.  Lunch will be provided by local restaurants.

We'll also be celebrating the community which houses both Kalitta Air and Kalitta Motorsports by inviting the areas' top executives from other successful businesses to encourage networking opportunities to help stimulate growth in our area.  We will be joined by the MEDC (The Michigan Economic Development Corporation) who will be partnering with Kalitta Motorsports on their Top Fuel Dragster for the Norwalk race event! 

Come join us and show your support of your community and your hometown race team.  We'd love to have you there!
