We're trying to figure out how we could get up there for open track day on Wednesday. Or, maybe enough of us could make Thursday happen....

Hi Tom, I am really interested in taking adavantage of the Wednesday open track time too. I know I better be there practicing with you or I will never get the chance to keep up with you. Thursday would be good too if they can open up for us, they might be setting up for friday anyway so it might make it possible?So we should see how many people we can get to be there on Wednesday and maybe even try for a cookout at the track? and thursday ?
Anyone else up for it?

Yep, I talked with Deb about it today and it will require us to get another day off of work, but the Wednesday open track day would be great. Then we could just take it easy Thursday morning and actually get to Motorstate early enough to enjoy the tour. Only problem with the open track day is that passengers are not allowed. Not cool for Sam or trying to coach Deb.

Thanks for the update Scott!

If you end up racing Glenn I may have to fly out. You know, dealer training or something to justify it.

Newb question:
Having never before attended a Motor State Challenge before, where is the eventy held? I'm assuming somewhere in Michigan...

My car (67 Mustang) is almost 100% and I intend to be ready for some events this 2013 season (after more years in the garage than I care to admit). So, I'm trying to populate the calander with events. Any more information you could provide would be much appreciated.

Many thanks!

Hi Karl and everyone, I was planning on being there for Wednesday but I have had my hours changed at work and it is no longer one of my days off. I will be there for the rest of the fun. I was really looking forward to getting the feel for the track again and get to see how any new mods will work.

I look foward to seeing everyone and I will be there with a smile.

We've had good luck at that hotel and that's where the largest group hangs out. You need to call for reservations, you can't trust the online deal.

Ditto on the Wednesday or Thursday testing. I would be interested as well since they have limited open evening test sessions this year.
