The program does not go by your yearly milage. It is by your total milage you have driven a model A. It costs a one time charge of 1 dollar to sign up. I think one man has over 350,000 miles. I've got a long way to go.

I participate. Many in my club do, too. Pretty good value for $1.00!

The MARC mileage program is set up so once the car is registered the mileage goes with the car rather than with the owner/s. So if you buy or sell a Model A and it was entered in the program, the mileage is transferred. I think they go by engine number.

But necessary to belong to MARC, to which I no longer belong, due to costs.

Most of our club is enrolled as well.
I am in it.
This is my first year enrolled as I just bought the car this year.
So far I am at 3,500 for the year.

So I already will get the 2,000 mile award.
I'm shooting for 5,000 miles before Christmas!

Looks like a fun program. I had a motor swap that put me out for a couple weeks but I'm getting quite a few miles this season. Looks like a fun way to keep track of yearly miles driven.

Yes I'm in it.
Last year I got to the 10,000 mile level but I'm the only one in my club in it.

I would be in it, but it is a bitch when you don't have a working speedometer! Maybe that should be the next investment?
