Ever dream of driving that special vintage car that you’ve seen at a national car show? Lane Motor Museum can make your dream come true on September 22 or October 6 at our Ninth Annual Rally for The Lane!

The Rally for The Lane is your chance to experience one of our rare and unique cars in a full day rally where you get to drive the car! The museum has selected 52 cars from its collection that participants will be able to purchase the right to drive on the rally. Registration will close when 25 have been registered for that day's Rally event.

In addition to being a full day of fun for you and your guests, this Rally is a fundraiser for Lane Motor Museum that raised over $41,927 last year. The money raised helps to defray the costs of owning, housing, restoring and maintaining the over 500 cars in our collection!

The day will begin at the museum with some car familiarization time and a personal driving lesson in your chosen vehicle as well as a pre-Rally breakfast sponsored by Hagerty Collector Car Insurance. The rally will kick-off at 9:00 a.m. and we'll all head towards Mt. Pleasant, TN. Past rallies have included over 160 miles of driving over the course of the day.

 

This year we will be heading South of Nashville on a Rally route that will take through the Natchez Trace and to the Mount Pleasant Grille where we will enjoy lunch.

Following lunch, we will begin the second half of the Rally as we work our way back to the museum where we'll enjoy a post-rally reception and a private access to the museum's basement collection!

Finally, for those who would like to continue the fun, we have planned an optional group dinner that will be held in the museum's exhibit area- surrounded by our cars!  This year's caterer will be announced prior to the registration period for those who reserve a car.

Registering a Car for the Rally for The Lane includes:

• The right to drive the registered vehicle** during the Rally for The Lane.
  (**Please note that all efforts will be made to make sure the selected vehicle is in driving condition for the Rally. If any car is deemed undrivable we will offer you your choice of another vehicle or the option of a full refund. In the case of inclement weather, those in convertibles without tops will be offered alternatives.)
• Lane Motor Museum reserves the right to deny any participant the right to drive if we believe the driver is unable to operate the vehicle in a safe manner.
• The ability to register up to 2-4 participants per car (determined by the car's capacity). A max of two participants per vehicle may be designated as drivers; if the car allows for more participants, all others must be passengers.
• Drivers must be at least 25 years of age with a valid driver's license and insurance. Passengers must be at least 13 years old (by the date of the Rally).  If you have had any major traffic citations you may not be eligible. A DUI or any other alcohol or drug-related citation is automatic ineligibility for 3 years following the incident.
  
• Each participant registered in your group for this car (2-4 total, depending on the car) will receive all the privileges of Rally for The Lane registration including*:
  • Participation in the Pre-Rally Breakfast at Lane Motor Museum-- sponsored by Hagerty Collector Car Insurance.
  • Participation in all the activities scheduled for the Rally.
  • An official Rally T-shirt & poster.
  • Lunch provided at the Mt Pleasant Grille
  • Option to purchase a museum membership for a greatly discounted fee.
• Participants who pay the museum directly for their participation by paying either the 50% reservation fee and/or the final 50% registration fee will receive a tax certificate that will detail the museum's estimate of the tax-deductible value for participation. We issue up to 2 per car and only when we have actually collected the funds from a participant. If you split a car with another driver on your own and the other person does not pay their half directly to the museum they will not get a tax certificate. 

*Registration information is required for EACH participant (driver or passenger) who will be attending the Rally.  Please note that items like t-shirts can only be guaranteed if participant information is received by the August 24th deadline. Registrations not completed by August 24 may be dropped from Rally participation.

Steps for Reserving a Car. To fully understand the reservation process, please read each item.

• Scroll through the list of available cars below to see which cars are still available for each day of the rally. If you would like to learn more about any car, click on the photo of the car for more information.
• Participants of the 2017 Rally for The Lane receive access to a special pre-sale opportunity starting Wednesday, March, 14. Details will be emailed to past participants.
• Any cars remaining after the pre-sale will go on sale as follows:
  • The September 22, 2018, date will go on sale to the public Thursday, March 15, 2018, at 11 am CENTRAL time. Register for Sept. 22, 2018 at: SORRY! THIS DATE HAS SOLD OUT DURING OUR PRE-SALE
  • The October 6, 2018, date will go on sale to the public Thursday, March 15, 2018, at 1 pm CENTRAL time. Register for Oct 6, 2018 at: https://lanemuseum.wufoo.com/forms/prl52215jb4l7/
• Until this time, the registration pages will be protected with a password. Cars already sold in the pre-sale will be marked as sold.
• To reserve a car, you will be charged a non-refundable deposit equal to 50% of the car's participation value. 
• If you plan to split the car with a second party or would like to add the post-Rally dinner, this will be handled during the registration period from June 1-August 27, 2018 when you will submit the names and information of all participants in your car as well as driver's license & insurance information for all drivers in the car (not needed for passengers).
• **IMPORTANT** If you attempt to purchase a car at the same time as another person you will get an error that says: "There was a problem with your submission. Sorry, but the quantity has been exceeded." You can then scroll down the page and make another selection and you should only see a payment screen if successful. BUT—different browsers and operating systems may work differently so, if needed, you may need to manually refresh the screen. If you are not taken to a payment screen and do not complete payment, the car is not reserved.
• After reserving your car you will receive an email that confirms your reservation. There will be nothing else required until the registration period on June 1- August 27, 2018.
• When reserving a car, you are agreeing to a non-refundable deposit to hold your space. However, we understand that plans sometimes change and will consider requests for cancellation if received by July 13th (emergencies will be handled past this date on a case-by-case basis). We will make all possible efforts to find someone to take your spot but, since many times we will have been holding your reservation for several months, we are only able to refund your deposit if we are able to find another participant to take your place. This is not always possible as we get closer to the end of our registration period. We will first offer the spot to those on our wait list in the order that they joined the waitlist. If the waitlist is exhausted we will post to the museum's email list and social media to attempt to find a replacement.
• As part of registration, all drivers will be required to submit their driver's license and proof of insurance and must agree that Hagerty Insurance may check their driving record for the past 3 years. Hagerty reserves the right to reject any driver. A DUI/DWI offense during this three year period is an automatic rejection so please do not register if you have this in your history. If a driver is not approved, a full refund will be given. However, if a driver does not disclose an item in their history and is later rejected by Hagerty, we reserve the right to keep your deposit. If you have questions about this, please contact Meghan Palik by This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or by phone at 615-742-7445.
• ALL PARTICIPANTS, including both drivers and passengers, will be required to sign a participation waiver. This will be done the morning of the Rally when you check-in and receive your Rally packets.
