TMC 2001-2002 EVENT SCHEDULE : The international
chapters of TMC will hold over 50 events this year, all over
the world, just for Maserati enthusiasts! Over 80% are events
that we created with the remaining 25% being events that we attend
as a group. TMC board members are in attendance at all of our events
so that newcomers will be made to feel welcome and so the success
of the event is assured. But it is your participation and support at events
that makes them work. Come out and join us for a celebration of
this great marque and the people that make it special. Since it’s
early in the club year some events are still in formation while others
have not yet been announced. Remember that updates can be gotten
by either contacting your local chapter or by checking periodically
right here. NOTE
: Some events' dates may be approximated and particpants
should always check with their local chapter first to confirm final
arrangements. As we are now in the beginning of the event season
and please check with us as as updates are posted. You may also download
