    The E.T. the car runs has nothing to do with the fun factor of the event.
    I had just as much fun racing a 15.20-15.30 car as I did the year I brought a 12.90 car.
    That has always been the beauty of these events Case, you will always be paired with a car that runs similar E.T.,and if nobody has sandbagged, you will have a door handle to door handle 2 outta 3 match race.
    Just throw the damn thing together and get your butt back to the event as a participant:Smarty:

    Are Martin and Mid Michigan the only 2 tracks you can get. MM is the worst hook for a 4-speed ever.How come nobody does Milan?

    Nobody does Milan because they are a PITA to deal with. I live 7 miles from the joint, and have worked there. I know from experience.

    How about Norwalk??

    Lebanon valley?

    Toronto Motorsports?

    We definitely need a fall race within a 6hr drive for most competitors.

    Will 20 bucks more per person buy Milan?

    When I spoke with Milan a few years ago it wasn't a money issue. We didn't even get that far despite the description.

    At that time we could get a few hours before the Friday schedule and a couple of hours before the Saturday schedule. Or we could run with their regular schedule.

    Not a real event.

    Milan is closer for me also, however, I think if an established group like F.A.S.T. is willing to get us Martin I'm not going to gripe.:Do No: :TU:

    AND.....

    It's really nice to not have to run with a bunch of weed whips,mini dragsters,snow mobiles,motorcycle's,pro mods,etc.

    A few years back, we Olds farts were planning to run with the Pontiac club at Milan when they rented the track. Overnight they bumped the cost by $1000. Killed that.

    Is this deal dead? I'm just curious how totally SCREWED this particular racing season might be (for me)... :(

    That is a good question Roberta! Where is everyone staying? We will be driving back home Friday night, so I guess we will have to get our party on at the track before we leave. Unless, the majority are staying close by- like Kalamazoo!?:pray:
