No ...no inside joke (sarcasim)..just one of only two tracks around the eastside...Yes I have been there.
Are you suggesting a track day or outing or just wondering if anyone knew about it?

No, I'm not suggesting that no one knows about it. It's just that I go there about 6-10 times a year and I rarely see other 3rd gens there. Last couple of times there all I saw were (as far as 3rd gens) were a couple of full on drag cars. It would be nice to see some other "Street" 3rd gens there thats all.

Yea, I was there. Were you racing? If so, what car?
I agree, it's not a great track. But it's cheap and not very crowded.

92lt1,
Sorry, I haven't been on here in awhile - bought another Fbody that's keeping me busy.
I am right on M-15, near McDonald's - can't miss it - my front yard looks like a parking lot most days.
hubby doesn't like it but it's not my fault the cars take up more room than the Harley. Where are you located in Frankenmuth? And the ultimate question .... if it's tourist season - why can't you shoot them?????
89TA is in garage for a head gasket
. I am cleaning out the engine bay and going to pretty up the TPI while Hubby is doing his thing. Body and paint this winter. 86 is out back waiting for interior and paint and the 81 is out front. Very pleased w/the 81's condition.Stop by some time.

Sorry about that, I'll decloak next time
Seriously though, I hate to say it, but I hardly ever get out to any shows. Closest I've gotten to a show this year was last saturday night on woodward. The GTA is still off the road, so you wouldn't have noticed me anyway.
